Continue reading →: I’ve Got That POTSie Feeling
I am feeling quite POTSie this weekend. I don’t know if it’s the change in the weather, if it’s because it’s my “time of the month,” or if it’s unrelated to anything at all, but I have been dizzy and feeling shitty. A lot of people try to come up…

Continue reading →: Rekindling My Love Affair with Words
I love to write. I often miss creative writing; I enjoy writing about love and feelings in particular. This blog was born because of adventuring in the dating world, but it really made my heart full when I met Robert and started writing about us. I studied journalism and communications…

I grew up with Taylor Swift. I think that’s part of the reason I love her so much; we go through many of the same things at the same time. One of my best friends in high school, Alex, gave me the first CD for my birthday and I was…

You know what’s a cute thing about marriage? You pick a person you love so much that you decide that you want to spend your life with him. DUH. This is an easy “No shit, Sherlock,” moment. But I’m in my feelings and want to elaborate, so I started with…

Continue reading →: Baby Steps
Yesterday I felt really proud of myself. I don’t often think about “me” as a person — other than maybe self-improvement or things I want to learn to better understand why my brain works the way it does. I just started up physical therapy again. I have a goal of…
