Can’t we all just get along?
The ladies at Girl Talk Thursday are venting today.

The quest for gold
I can't believe I just added a "sports" tag to my blog. And that it's in the same post as "Girl Talk."Ah-MAZ-ing.

The ladies this week want to know about my ideal lunch date.My gut reaction was an emotional one: a lunch with my grandfather who I never had the fortune of knowing; a lunch with my… Continue reading My ideal lunch date
Roomies
Whenever I hear roommate stories, they usually sound something like this:What is this Feeling? - WickedFortunately for me, loathing is not a feeling I hold for the majority of the roommates I've had. Out of 7 roommates, I'm still good friends with 5 of them (that's a decent track record, if you ask me).I remember… Continue reading Roomies
