They’re Not All Jerks

You’re all well aware of the many losers I’ve dated, but there have been a few nice guys along the way too. And David is by far the nicest.
We met at Cotton Eyed Joe back in 2000. I was hanging out with a large group of people from an AOL chat room at [...]

Moving Sucks!

I hate moving. I sold my old house and bought a new one nearly a year ago, and I really hope that’s the last time I ever have to move. I did it the hard way - loaded up my car and made about a thousand trips back and forth between the old [...]

Thanksgiving with the Rejects

About six months ago, my parents announced that they no longer wanted to celebrate the holidays with family. They told us to make other plans, as they would be doing their own thing for future holidays. Don’t worry; it’s fine with me. My parents live 10 minutes away, and I see them [...]

Blogging for Friendship

Bobby of Revellian Dot Com tagged me for his Blogging for Friendship writing project. What a nice way to spread a little happiness around the blogosphere!
I have been blogging since November 2004, and the experience has been amazing. I’ve always enjoyed expressing myself through the written word, but I never imagined that I [...]

Day at Dollywood

My friend Elliot and I spent the day at Dollywood yesterday.  We checked out the shops, went to the Eagle Sanctuary, fed ducks, and rode lots of rides.  I usually have neck problems after riding the coasters, so I really asked for trouble yesterday.  I rode the Blazing Fury, the Thunderhead, the Tennessee Tornado, and [...]

Walking Away

There’s an email that has been circulating for several years now.  It talks about how friends can be categorized into three groups - those there for a reason, those there for a season, and those there for a lifetime.  Until recently, I had never really spent much time pondering the message.  I now realize that [...]

A Post for Andrew

Andrew has been asking for a photo to prove that I was indeed a Sonic carhop many years ago.  Here ya go, Andrew!

And no laughing, guys!  This photo isn’t dated, but if my memory serves me correctly, I was around 18 or 19 years old.  The guy with me was an old friend by the [...]

Newest Member of My Beanie Family

My best buddy in the whole world just sent me a sweet new beanie baby!  Her name is Dainty.  Isn’t she precious?

As you may know, I have been collecting beanie babies for 10 years.  I have hundreds of them!  I’m sure Dainty will fit in perfectly and will make lots of new friends here!
Thanks a [...]

I’m a Lucky Commenter!

My dear friend Mike hit the 3,000th comment on his blog yesterday, and yours truly was the lucky commenter!  Mike even wrote a nice little post about me!  I feel like the luckiest girl alive to have such an amazing friend.

I’m in Awe…

Look what my dear friend Mike surprised me with!

I am completely awestruck.  I think this is the nicest thing anyone has ever done for me.  And doesn’t it look just like me?
I hoped to find the perfect words for this post, but I’m darn near speechless.
Thank you so much, Mike!
