Laaame
Nothing makes you feel lamer than when you’re 25 years old, and you cannot hang with the people who are still partying at 1am without nearly falling asleep then excusing yourself early. Especially when those party people are your grandparents.

Internet Fights: Not Just For Teenagers!
Long story short, sometimes I fall into the classic Internet Political Argument. I know, I KNOW. Anyway, it happens, and it’s usually on my republican dad’s Facebook wall. It’s also usually me standing up for pro-choice rights or equality of all people in the US. Tonight was no different, and my favorite opponent (my dad’s pal) was — of course — ready to get...

Cool Face, Bro
No amount of Accutane will ever truly prepare you for the dynamic duo of wedding planning stress and a change of birth control.

Dog Park Happenings
We were at the dog park yesterday with Káva, and the only other dog there was an older terrier mix that was just chillin’ by himself. Káva is only interested in her ball, so it’s no big deal; R just throws it to her a hundred times. Meanwhile, the owner of the terrier mix (an older, very Tennessee lady) starts to talk to us. We chat for awhile, and then she tells us that she just...

Every Little Girl's Reality
When you’re a little girl, you dream about the day you get married. You clip things from the magazines and start a secret envelope filled with your ideas for the perfect day. You practice walking down the aisle with your plastic bouquet, trying to imagine all the things from your magazine pages. For some girls, this never changes. Your wedding clipping envelope turns into a file on your...

Work Life
My work life includes that I watch the two hour premiere of season three of CMT’s Sweet Home Alabama. Okay, it’s not mandatory, but I do like to see my wardrobe work (i.e., wrinkle-free flannel and jeans) in action…AND I relish in seeing my name in the credits. Seeing as this was the first episode of the season, I was all prepped with a camera to record the credits because I...

Traditions
Just ordered a bright green dress and some ridiculous, leopard shoes for our engagement photos. I wouldn’t want to have my future kids miss out on the time-honored tradition of not understanding what their mom wore “back in the day.” And I know they’ll later yell at me for not keeping the stuff they mocked. Yeah, Mom. I’m looking at you and your lace-up wedges,...

Shaping Up to Be a Spectacular Day!
- Face is officially one giant scab. - I put makeup over my giant face scab, and now I look like I’m wearing a papier-mâché mask. - My car won’t start AT ALL. Already replaced the radiator and tires in the last four months, now it’s time to blow money on a starter. Also: stranded at home until 6pm. - Weddings are expensive-ass. Just used a month and a half’s budget on a...

Good Planning

Everyone's Resolution
In 2012, let’s resolve to get those depressing, gut-wrenching, tortured animal commercials OFF of our televisions. Sarah McLachlan and I invite you to donate to the ASPCA so that they have enough money to take care of every pet on the earth, thereby removing the need for the world’s saddest advertisements. Best plan ever or best plan ever? Donate to the ASPCA.

Fun Fact du jour
R just found out that he hit his very first homerun in 1998 — on the same date as we set for our wedding. If that’s not a metaphor, I don’t know what is.

Disney World
My *~fiAnCé~* and I went to Disney World (prior to his becoming my *~fiAnCé~*) the week before Christmas as a gift to each other. Here are a few pictures from our adventures: The Tree of Life at Animal Kingdom: My winning the world’s largest Emmy at Hollywood Studios (I dare you to find a bigger fannypack): When picking a wedding date, May 4th became an option. Fiancee didn’t...
