It all started with a number of noise complaints and one “that’s-it-I’m-so-over-this” call to the police…. Typically, this isn’t how most “love stories” begin, and this one certainly isn’t worthy of a book or a Nicholas Sparks adaptation, but it’s how mine started and it makes me smile. I’ve referenced my boyfriend (seriously, still hate … Continue reading

You know your mom might be your best friend when…
I can’t say when specifically, but at some point your mom becomes less of a rule shouting militant and more of a friend, a confidant, someone you genuinely want to spend time with. My mom still fulfills the role of a stereotypical mother figure, what with all the nagging and orders and “why don’t yous….” … Continue reading
Oscars Traditions
Some people have FOMO about a big night out on the town. I suffer from FOMO when it comes to the Oscar Best Picture nominees. Each year, I do my best to try and see all of the contenders for the coveted Best Picture. I realize the thought of seeing a movie doesn’t sound that … Continue reading
February’s New Thing: Himalayan Salt Cave
Yes, you read that right. I decided to try the healing powers of a Himalayan salt cave as my “new thing” for February. A few months ago, my mom and I saw a Groupon offer for this and were intrigued. The Himalayan Salt Cave at Timeless Spa and Salt Cave boasted therapeutic benefits for sinuses, … Continue reading
So, this is love ♥♥♥
Given that February is the month of looooove, I felt inclined to do a post about it. I’m not going to rattle off why I love the people I love, nor am I going to give you a list of the perfect gift items. I think love is deeper than that. Instead, I looked to people … Continue reading
Being Present
My days are just like yours, full of constant distractions and real time notifications. My phone sits less than an arm’s length away from me and it’s almost as if I have a nervous twitch to check it every couple of minutes. I toggle between email accounts, social media platforms, and texting…all while I’m watching … Continue reading
A few things I’m thankful for
Now that Thanksgiving is a few days away, it’s time to start thinking about what to say when asked the unavoidable question at the dinner table, “what are you thankful for?” I kid – hopefully you think about this more often than at you Thanksgiving meal, but regardless, it’s nice to have November dedicated as … Continue reading
What it’s (sometimes) like being a twenty-something female at work
I’ve been drafting a post focusing on what it’s like being a twenty something in the workplace for a few days now. However, thanks to a recent, let’s call it “incident” I heard about from a friend of mine, I’ve decided to add a new word into the mix. That word is female. I now present … Continue reading
The B-word
I’ve had this topic written down in my notebook (yes, you read that right) for months now, but haven’t committed to it until this very moment. I haven’t been able to find the words to put it out there into the big, huge, never ending blogosphere. What if I’m the only one who feels this … Continue reading
March Resolution Challenge: Complete
I’m not going to call myself a resolution failure for the month of March, but I’m willing to admit that I took the easy way out. Three months in and I already had to admit that to you. Allow me to explain. For the past few months, I’ve been toying with the idea of signing … Continue reading
