It’s official, summer’s over. How do I know this? Because it’s Halloween? No. (But happy Halloween!!) Summer is officially over because last night I put all of my summer clothes away and brought out the winter stuff. It’s the end of an era! It’s weird, but I always try to hold out as long as [...]

A night gone down the crapper

Saturday was a pretty chill day – I lounged, ate some cake, did some homework – and it was good. After watching Shawn of the Dead and some haunted house shows with my roomate Lauren, I went into the kitchen to put the kettle on around midnight (because any time is a good time for [...]

Monday night, towards the end of “Heroes”, I get a call from my college roomate/best friend Emily who is now out in Chicago studying the effects of bugs on plants. I was pretty excited to talk to her, since we don’t get to see each other much any more. So we’re chatting, and she asks [...]

Ahhh, there’s nothing like a lazy weekend to make you wish that everyday was, well, a lazy weekend. And I had a good one. Friday night was consumed by watching the Scariest Movie Moments on tv and then a marathon of history channel ghost stories and haunted castles. Then me and my roomie were sleepy, [...]

A lot of times I feel like I need to just get up and go. And not in a “go out and see something new” kind of way. It’s more of a “start a new life somewhere far away” thing. I’ve always kind of been like that. I guess I’m a wanderer at heart.
Cause sometimes [...]

Alright, so you know how everyone has that person in thier life that always irritates you and makes you miserable but you can’t get rid of because you’re best friends or related or something? Well my person is really irritating and at it again.
We’ll call her “Bethany”, and I’m pretty much stuck with her being [...]

I started to see a trend today in movies and tv shows. There’s always this couple in a relationship, and the woman has some kind of problem. Then the guy tries to help, but can’t because the chick wants to do it herself. She then screams at him something like “Stop trying to fix me! [...]

Last night I was flipping through the channels, seeing if anything good was on, and I came across Under the Tuscan Sun – ka ching! Love that movie!! So I watched it, feeling sad at the sad parts, happy at the good parts, and having a grand old time. That movie, like most movies, makes [...]
Be careful how you tempt fate

Ok, so we all know how much I hate bugs. And how they’re all over my house. And recently I made a decision that I was going to put on a brave face, “man up”, and face those bugs head on. I guess I just didn’t think anyone would really put me to the test.
We [...]
