Thangs poppin

Heeyyyyy, Hi.  Welcome.  Things here are just….I feel like all that ever happens is stuff that is either too boring to tell you about, or too interesting to be shared publicly on the whole internet. I should go get a Diaryland and make it password protected, probably.  Okay actuallyyyyyyy originally I started this blog because […]

THE BIG NEWS OH EM GEEEEEEE

This weekend in Ross, I saw an adorable coffee mug with the phrase “Bloom where you are planted” emblazoned on it. I’m familiar with the phrase, and at first blush it sounds sort of comforting and motivational, right?  Make the best of a bad situation!  You can’t control life, so just deal with it!  That’s not […]

Food, floats, and fun

Since last we spoke, the weekend happened.  Also, I need to […]

Ugh it’s too easy. MAY THE FOURTH, fine!

Close call there, y’all.  It is getting into the nighttime hours and you were probably worried that I wasn’t going to post today.  Or actually you probably just heard about this thing earlier today and are already over it.  Oh well, I’m doing it. You’ve been warned; there will be bloggery ahead. So first things […]
