Since Borders Books has filed Chapter 11, I found out the other day that my beloved store near work is closing within the next few months. I’m pretty bummed that the Internet has killed print, to be honest. I’ve downloaded books to the Kindle app on my iPad but just cannot get into reading books [...]

Brought to you by the letters “Cee Lo”
hahahaha. Here’s a chuckle for your Saturday: Here’s the “official” explanation: City spokesperson Marlene Feist says personnel from the street department believe snow may be wedged in the electronic sign… She also said that it was clearly ‘unintentional’. I totally want one of these signs.

I’m a week behind on this, but last Sunday night Jay, Zoe and I carved our Halloween pumpkin. I dressed Zoe up in her costume for this year, which is a devil. Yeah, I know she looks more like Little Red Riding Hood with horns but whatever, I think it’s funny. Anyways, I figured I’d [...]

[Note: I made a kick ass playlist for cleaning which means that I'll probably do that song quote thing I do for the titles of the next few blog posts. Play along in the comments if you can guess the song in the title.] If someone had told me at Sara & TJ’s wedding on [...]

I promise I have been working on a real actual blog post (actually 2 of them) since last Thursday but with going home to NY this past weekend and then a new girl started at work yesterday and we had an in-service today, I kinda lost all of my “free time” for finishing blog posts [...]

I am not even going to ruin the end of this weekend by talking about today’s flying issues; I’ll save it for tomorrow. However, here’s a picture of me and Jay from before my grandparents’ 55th anniversary party yesterday. We had a great time, as always with my family parties. It was actually a really [...]

Last weekend, Jay and I were thoughtfully given a bottle of champagne to celebrate our engagement. Luckily, it made it back to Raleigh in one piece and tonight, we decided to pop it open before dinner for a toast (Zoe was actually quite intrigued by the “POP” & not at all scared). We toasted to [...]
