Am I the only one in love with Jeff and Jordan?

Okay, that took me over an hour to get that picture up there. Because I got sucked into spoiler websites and NOW I KNOW WHO WINS POV THIS WEEK. NOOOOOOOOOO. It’s like unwrapping your Christmas presents before Christmas. You WANT to know, but you don’t really want to know. Sigh. I need someone to take the internet away from me.
But back to my favourite people on television. These two are …READ MORE

And you are both elated (hello link love, let’s just save mamma some typing!) and deflated (I was way funnier two years ago)?
And then you realize you just called yourself ‘mamma’ and you wonder what it says about you when you admit to yourself that you like it?
Me too.
Saturday is the *birthday. TWENTY EIGHT. I’m sure I’m supposed to be feeling all sorts of things …READ MORE

Yeah. I TOTALLY know what you are thinking. Ohhhh, now that she’s got a new job and NOW she believes in miracles, what a whore.
Okay, maybe not the ‘whore’ bit.
I’ve been thinking lately about how I need to work on recognizing happiness. I’m always good at knowing when I WAS happy, but I often forget to appreciate the moment I AM happy. It’s one of those things- you don’t realize how good it is until it’s over (there’s a country song in there somewhere). I tend to be …READ MORE
August 27th, 2008 in AGGRESSIVE eye rolling makes me mad, family, MY BIRTHDAY, oh look! i have opinions., proof i attract crazy, question of the day, seriously, sometimes i get violent, these are the things that happen to me, what the hell, when i ask you to do things for me I was going to let this slide, but I think you all are the perfect people to discuss this with.
Last week my birthday dinner was horrible. I went out for my party on Saturday, but on the Friday- my mom, brother and I went out for dinner. Here is what happened:
Our server rolled her eyes when we asked for menus. Because clearly, I should have the mind powers that let me visualize everything on the menu. Oh, and given her impatience with the few minutes it took us to think about what we want, I apparently should also …READ MORE
Other than the fact that we have matching facial expressions when we find Sephora doesn’t carry our favorite lip gloss:
Stormin' Norman looks ready to Par-tay
… we share a birthday! Today!
Tell me- if you could blow out my candles (why does that sound so filthy?) and have your wish granted, what would you wish for?

And to everyone who read the last post and emailed or tweeted or called or texted or facebook messaged or just sent good wishes via a psychic mind meld … thank you. …READ MORE
August 19th, 2008 in AHHHHHHHHHHH!, and now you might know everything, beauty can get ugly, confession of the day, family, find the dorkiest sentence in this, happiness, if you're shallow and you know it clap your hands!, MY BIRTHDAY, sigh. i've made a tag for THE HILLS., this makes me sound dumber than i am I’m walking the fine line between being 27 years old and feeling like I’m 7 years old.
It’s my 27th birthday on Friday and it’s circled on my calendar= 27 years old
- with pink crayon= 7 years old
I’m finding it hard to get excited for my birthday this year= 27 years old
- but I keep telling people about it= 7 years old

September 13th, 2007 in a possible regret, adventure, books, celiacs, family, harry potter, i may write about the west wing forever, life lesson, lists, men, MY BIRTHDAY, people i like, teaching, wasting time, work, youth You know how you can say goodbye to someone, watch them walk away but not miss them until you turn to their spot beside you (because that is their spot… beside you) to tell them something only to find that they are not there? And suddenly you miss them more than you ever thought you would? Or could? That’s how I feel about the end of summer. I have to admit, by August I’m usually wary of barbeques, the constant hum of lawn mowers and the automatic acceptance of yet another sunburn, but then a cloudy day with a cool breeze comes and …READ MORE
Okay here’s the deal (and can I just say that I’m enjoying the tone my posts have taken lately? There’ s been no deep thinking, no clever analogies, no witty puns- just a lot of straight talk. Pretty soon I’ll be chewing gum when I post and call you all ‘honey’). I’m currently on a lucky streak that’s so lucky that I’m almost frightened. It’s at the point now where I’m starting to think that I might actually be magical and that the next person to win the lottery (if I don’t buy a ticket) will be whoever touches me. …READ MORE
So let’s talk birthday.
It was fantastic. There was ice cream cake and family and presents. There were a few drinks, board games and phone calls from friends in Germany. It was like, all my favourite things wrapped up in a bow and handed to me while I sipped a cocktail and was fanned by shirtless men.
Or something like that.
In preparation for this birthday weekend of theatre watching, piano bar singing and a trip to a corn maze (because I have diverse interests) I went to the mall. First, I returned a pair of cords and a long sleeve …READ MORE
August 22nd, 2007 in MY BIRTHDAY Ray Bradbury, Norman Schwarzkopf and Tori Amos all share ONE thing in common with me. (And it isn’t a love for British boy bands from the early 90′s, or pretty eyes- though I’ve often thought Ray was a dreamboat in old mans clothing.)
I love, love, love today.
