This morning on my drive into work I realized that I haven’t felt so terrified for our country and our safety and well-being since 9/11. It’s a familiar feeling of being trapped on an island jus...

I somehow missed a phone call on Friday. It was from my dad. He was calling to tell me that one of his good friends passed away. This guy was also one of my favorite friends of my parents’. O...

You guys, I’m really and truly concerned for our country if the biggest thing the President is concerned about is who’s crowd was bigger. It’s like a contest of penis sizes and the country is no...

Today I started a lifestyle plan called the Whole Life Challenge . It’s a pretty comprehensive plan to create some positive changes in my life using a system of checks for various things. Th...

Well, how did I forget? If I remember correctly, the problem with the Tree was that he couldn’t/wouldn’t take root, make a commitment…or even a simple plan. And when he was able to actually mak...

---

Well, guess what? I waited to say anything, but guess who came back after a 3-month disappearance? That’s right, it’s The Return of The Tree, all 6‘9” of him. I don’t know what happened (my gu...

This workweek has been exhausting. I have been coming home from work, making a small dinner, then workout and/or dog walk, then bed. Last night I went to bed at 8PM even though I could have e...

---

I went to bed really early last night with a longing in my heart for someone to share my bed…really missing that human touch, so of course I woke in the middle of the night with my mind reeling a...

---

And now we’re back to work, back to clean living, back to reality! Day 2 back to work and it’s actually going decently - about as expected - super busy day yesterday with meetings practically eve...

---

Last night I had my small gathering to help me drink all of the bottles of bubbly I have stashed in my fridge and hither and yon throughout my apartment. When I say it was a blowout with just eig...

---

…for just three days this week - not so bad. Plus, it’s super quiet here and should be all three days. Most folks took this week off, making for an 11-day vacation. I decided to “cover” for th...

---

Didn’t sleep hardly a wink last night (Christmas Eve) at my parents’ house. Not because of anticipation, but because I feel like their neighborhood is not really all that safe anymore. Sure, ...

---

I had the interview with the EVP today. I’m not quite qualified, but the EVP was so gracious about me coming and talking with him. He thanked me several times and said some really nice things, ...

---

So, Saturday was pretty fun. I did end up sleeping heavily, waking late, still feeling hungover from Wednesday night. That’s 3 days of hangover. Not good. I thought maybe walking it off would ...

---

Ugh. I’m now working on Day 2 of the Colossal Hangover of 2016. Wow. I can’t believe how hard this hit me. I guess I was really looking forward to a blowout. I don’t think I explained the sit...

Just a quick drive-by and I’ll fill in the details later, but here’s another example of me being very all or nothing… I went out last night with my friend and co-worker, C. She’s the one who tra...

I don’t know why that’s my title, but it is. Usually, this involves pets on Instagram, right? But I guess instead I’m sticking my virtual tongue out at you. Lovingly, of course. So, remember I...

I’m already writing 2017 dates on a lot of documents, and I almost did that in the title, but I figured I should update on the various goings on… Work: Strange. We’re moving in new directions a...

Hi Everyone! It’s been nice to take a tiny break from writing an entry a day. I do like doing that, but I think I just start feeling obligated to write (by my own doing, of course) and then the...

…of November anyway. Nearly 8:30 and my dog is already passed out in bed. She went to daycare today, so I think/hope she’s just worn out, but I don’t know that I’ve ever seen her this tired. Sh...

---

Almost done with this bloody month. Pun intended. So tired of having a monthly time. It’s still like clockwork. I don’t know what to even think about it anymore…just a nuisance since I’m not ...

---

Yeah, was a big, fat bummer going into work today, but the dog was happy and that always makes me happy. You guys, I get to take my dog to work and she expresses SO MUCH JOY when we get to the o...
