I went to Los Angeles to celebrate the 4th of July with my husband…and to see Death Cab for Cutie play the Hollywood Bowl on July 5th.  I first heard about the show just as I was missing them play the Fox in Atlanta and I was determined not to miss them again, so I [...]

So, Joe is in California for the summer.  We have done the long distance thing before, and knowing that he is your husband and is only going to be gone for 12 weeks is mighty reassuring.  That said, the telephone becomes a vital instrument for keeping a relationship happy.  So when my phone decided to [...]

I have been traveling a LOT lately.  My most recent work trip took me to Dayton, Ohio.  I went up for the weekend before the meeting to spend some time with my friend from college, Lauren.  We took a short drive down to Cincinnati/Newport area to visit the Newport Aquarium.  Really, its a decent aquarium [...]

Wow!  Congrats to the Pittsburgh Steelers for making it to the Super Bowl!!

My family comes from a long line of Steelers fans.  My Grandma, my dad, and now my sister is probably the biggest fanatic of them all…bless her little “Terrible Towel” carrying heart.  Granted, I’m not quite so devoted, but I know I had [...]

Well, there have been some interesting developments at my apartment complex.  It has become quite a common occurrence to see the police outside asking questions and filling out investigative reports.  The residents were informed that there was ONE attempted/forced entry break-in last week… which made me feel a little uneasy, but then Joe and I [...]

So…I’m sad, and some of you will share in this sadness as our potential business dreams have been dashed.

I’ve been on a “shorter but more plentiful” blog kick…so there will be no deep meaning here, just as a forewarning…

Let me just start by saying that I love basketball. I grew up in Indiana…the epicenter of high school March madness cheering on our team in the (-ahem-) “largest and finest high school fieldhouse in the world.” I tried for many years to achieve athletic greatness on the court…I think my shining moment came [...]
