Blame the Cold Meds
I noticed at NOON I am wearing two DIFFERENT shoes. Both black, both patent leather, both heels but clearly different. I came cruising out of Whole Foods, looked down and thought “that’s weird my right shoe looks different than the left”. It is.
I thought I was limping today from my knee. Nope, wearing two different heel heights will do that. Luckily it’s my Friday.

This trumps all other existential mumbo jumbo. This. Is. It. A.

It’s only 4pm and I’ve already had an incredible birthday. It started early with two birthday cards and a bracelet from my husband before I left for work. Then I got birthday posts from A & J, followed by texts, instant messages, phone calls, emails and facebook messages from the people that matter. I walked into my office this morning and it was filled with balloons, streamers,...
Sneezing when you have a cold is the best feeling. Why does it feel so good? Maybe because when your throat is sore and head full of snot, the force behind a sneeze makes it all feel better for that second in time.
Bless me. ~J
Current Events
*Back from Boston; a trip filled with so much fun, amazing food, awesome drinks (except a shot that tasted like some kind of herb infused fermented jäger mouthwash concoction, that wasn’t good but the whole table did it like champs), lots of talking, being treated like an actual lady and hopes of a potentially exciting future.
*Currently have a fever of 102; not ok considering in two...
Chloe loves 3 Stride
Tiff: (getting into my car) Hi Chloe, how are you sweetie?
Chloe: Hi Tiffy! Where's Jamie?
Tiff: She's not here tonight.
Chloe: Well let's go get her!
Tiff: She's pretty far away Chlo, that would be a long trip!
Chloe: Yeah, so. Let's go get her!
We missed J tonight but know she's in good hands. Literally.

Long Distance Toast
2500 miles from home, having dinner at Gaslight in Boston and we receive a bottle of champagne sent to our table from Tiff….in Reno.
Yup, that happened. ~J
It's been a long day...
Just ate Manchego Cheese, Crackers and SpongeBob Fruit Snacks for dinner. I am a picture of health. A.

Seconded
Remember that feeling...
When you were like 9, Christmas Eve and you knew you were getting a new bike and couldn’t wait to go take it for a spin on Christmas morning? Nervous butterflies, excitement, maybe a little nervous you will take a digger at some point and wreck it?
Fast forward 24 years; I have that same feeling, minus the getting a new bike part. Waiting for my flight to board departing to Boston....

On my honor, I will try:
To not eat all the Girl Scout cookies some asshole left in the break room.
Doesn’t the Girl Scout promise say something about helping others at all times? Because these cookies are not helping me or my waistline at all. ~T
Thought for the day.
Do you ever just want to do the running man? I find myself, at times, just feeling so good that I break into full extension running man. With the side arm pump and all. No one around me even says a word when this happens. I’m so proud of the personality trait I have created for myself. A.
I can't handle
Misuse of words. Seriously, proofread your shit before you hit “send”, “post” or other button leading to the public reading and wondering how you passed the 2nd grade.
Mean? Yes. Necessary? Yes. Sorry? Not really. I don’t understand how it happens. One word, ok but several in multiple sentences? Not okay.
Example: “it is TO much to handle”=...
What's the secret
I burned an entire box worth of Pop Secret popcorn, one bag after another; 3 to be exact. I’m sure it’s some sort of issue with my microwave and not me. Right? Yes.
Domestic goddess. ~J
And my house smells awesome now too.

Always, this.
Back in my past life I would jump into dating after heartbreak to help myself move on. Why not right? It may be my age, my level of maturity or the love I felt for him that is forcing a change. It’s new for me and from what I hear, very normal. I’ve met a few very nice men, but truly want nothing to do with it. I would rather sit on my couch alone than pretend to be something or...
