How it’s almost August 2011 is beyond me. I feel like it was just August 2006 and I was getting ready to get married. Now all my friends are having babies and I’m this close to old. Actually, I take that back. Thirty is nowhere near old. Sixty is old… Mom. Muahahaha! And with that...
Step by step…ooh baby… gonna get to you giiiiirrrrllll. Oh, pardon me, I just had a flashback to 1991 and the NKOTB pajamas that were all over JC Penney when all I wanted was something pink with Disney characters. I was not ready to be an Amerian Tweenager at the ripe age of nine. Back...
This is the story of a brilliant idea gone horribly wrong. It was a warm Saturday and I was sitting at home alone. A chicken carcass and a bunch of fresh herbs were boiling on the stove, and I needed a manicure. With the E! Selena Gomez special on TV, I browsed the Internet for...
As I was driving around town yesterday, running all sorts of errands, I saw some crazy stuff. There was this man, dressed in a chicken suit. He was the advertising for Arkansas Silver and Gold.

The other option for the title of this post was: It’s 900 Degrees, There’s No Way I’m Turning on the Oven. Just in case you were wondering. Welcome to summer! Technically I think it has been summer for almost a month now, but I always feel like mid-July is when it really starts feeling like...
This fall I will be running my tenth half marathon. Half, yes, not full. I ran one full marathon… that was enough for me. I may be convinced, however, to run the New York Marathon thanks to a certain Arkansas business consultant’s review of it… we shall see. The most recent half marathon I ran,...
Here are the details of our road trip to Michigan. In case the title of this post did not make that clear. Here we go! Day One: Wake up at 3:20am. Get in the car and drive. Attempt to find a Starbucks and have absolutely no luck. Stop at Burger King for breakfast sandwiches and...
Here is why road trips are awesome: they fit perfectly into my current lifestyle. Check it out: Road trips can be really cheap. Perfect! I’m not generating an income! Road trips make getting from Point A to Point B take days instead of hours. Great! I have lots of free time! Road trips let you...
