Thursday, August 7th, 2008

Well, I’m back from 10 fun-filled relaxing (and, yes, hot) days with my sister and her family in Texas (post forthcoming), and catching up on email, blogs, facebook, etc… and I discover that I’ve been tagged with a meme by foolery. So here goes: 1. What is your favorite quotable line from a movie?My husband […]

I Ran 10 Laps!!! (2.5 miles)

Tuesday, July 15th, 2008

As promised, here’s the story:I have always hated running. I was always athletic (played soccer, softball, field hockey, swimming, track, cheerleading, power lifting, water polo, AND lacrosse), but never had that super-fit athletic drive that would have propelled me to being more than simply good at any of these sports, and I hated running.My side […]

What the heck… I’ll play

Tuesday, June 3rd, 2008

We’ll, everybody‘s all in “prom mode”, so when Mommy’s Martini launched the prom carnival, I figured “What the heck, I’ll play.” Only because this is one of my all-time favorite memories, AND it’s not like I have 15 things I REALLY SHOULD be doing instead! 🙂 So, we moved to Alabama the summer before my […]

Nerd Alert!

Tuesday, April 1st, 2008

I always new I wasn’t one of the cool kids, but I never realized just how nerdy I was (thanks foolery). this is redeemed only by my new-found royalty here’s me as the only Junior in high school in the Math Club – redeemed only by the fact that at least I’m wearing my soccer […]

I Burned My Veil Long Ago

Wednesday, March 12th, 2008

O.K. motherbumber, here you go… this is 41 ALL DAY:I don’t even put on warpaint for the ladies. Though in my head, I’m still this person (who also never wore makeup):Gosh darn-it!

This is for Sarah

Tuesday, March 11th, 2008

Wow… when I actually sat down to do this, I realized I was a lot quirkier than I originally thought. 1.
