Trying New Things

Our Dream Home

August 9, 2011

Recently, Mike and I took a trip back to the Midwest (yeah, I know I have yet to recap it…I’ll get to it) and stayed with my sister and BIL on their 7 acre (!) property on the outskirts of Cincinnati. We only stayed a few days, but Mike and I are completely enamored with [...]

On Putting Myself Out There

July 21, 2011

I have to admit…since I’ve been in my relationship with Mike, I haven’t been faced with much rejection. I’ve pretty much been safe with Mike and my small circle of friends…who else is there to brush me off? But recently, I’ve found myself to be rejected twice after making an attempt to branch out and [...]

What I’ll Do on my Summer Vacation

June 16, 2011

I haven’t had a “Summer Vacation” since my freshman year of college.  At Drexel University, we had to go to school or intern during the summers every year, so it’s been quite some time since I’ve had a summer off!  Even then, I usually had part time jobs so I could buy important things like [...]

Going Organic

May 10, 2011

I consider Mike and I to be foodies to the core.  We love us some good wine and good food, and we just don’t feel right if we settle for sub-par or unhealthy choices.  We’ve never been a fast-food or chain restaurant couple–we usually avoid those places like the plague since oftentimes they are known [...]

Philly Weekend

May 3, 2011

Mike and I live about 30-40 minutes away from Philly, so we try to go as often as possible.  This past weekend, we went Friday, Saturday and Sunday!  Friday, we just went in for a nice dinner, but Saturday we went in for the PIFA (Philadelphia International Festival of the Arts) festival and a Tria/Biba [...]

Dog Problems

February 7, 2011

This song has nothing to do with dogs, but I’ve been thinking of it this morning while I’ve been fighting fatigue/anger/frustration with our dogs: Here’s the main problem: Our dogs poop and pee in their crates. It goes against nature for them to do this, so it’s been a very difficult habit to break. We’ve [...]

Learnin’ Stuff

February 4, 2011

Since my job isn’t incredibly demanding, I put a question to my fellow bees for what they would do with their time if they had it at work.  I got quite a range of comments, and Sand Dollar’s  in particular made me pretty mad at myself.  Of course I should spend this time to help [...]

Happy New Year!

January 4, 2011

Yeah, I know I’m late.  Whatever. The holidays/my laziness has kept me from blogging, but I’m getting back to it now, I promise.  My time has been eaten up recently by my Christmas present from Mike: Source My Nook Color.  Every time I pick it up, I think “OMG-this-is-the-best-thing-that’s-ever-happened-to-me-i-love-it-i-love-it.”  I’ve used this thing every day [...]

Professional Sports and Me

December 2, 2010

I’m not a huge sports fan.  I’ll mostly watch because when they’re on I don’t feel like leaving the room.  Mike and I don’t watch too much TV anyway, so occasional sports aren’t a huge deal.  (Sportscenter and Mike & Mike make me want to blow my ears off though…ugh, it’s just sports overload) So [...]
