When I was married, I used to laugh at my friends who told me dating was difficult. Now that I'm 32, divorced and starting over, I'm not laughing anymore.

    Posted on Friday December 25th, 2009 at 18:38 in family, holidays, my life, love life

    Merry Christmas! I woke up about 8 this morning and realized that I hadn’t woken up during the night, coughing. Progress! The past few nights I’ve woken myself up twice. Hope I continue to improve. I gots New Year’s Eve to look forw...

  • Sniffles Begone!

    Posted on Thursday December 24th, 2009 at 08:17 in sports, holidays, my life, love life

    I finally bit the bullet and went to the doctor Tuesday. I was miserable. Of course — another sinus infection. I started a zpac on Tuesday evening; hopefully I’ll be feeling better by tomorrow. At any rate, I’ll take the last dose S...

    Posted on Sunday December 20th, 2009 at 16:35 in sports, holidays, my life, love life, annoyances

    As long as I have been in relationships, holidays have been made of fail. It doesn’t matter what my expectations are, they rarely go as planned. Birthdays, Christmas, anniversaries, you name it. Last night was no exception. It was supposed to b...

  • *cough* Colds Suck *cough*

    Posted on Friday December 18th, 2009 at 11:02 in holidays, my life, drinking, love life, let's get it on

    I woke up yesterday with no voice. Awesome. As much as I talk, that’s a problem! I felt pretty much ok otherwise so I went to work, although I did totally oversleep. Ugh. The voice issue got worse as the day went on but I still felt fine. I ...

  • Call Me Prom Queen

    Posted on Thursday December 17th, 2009 at 04:00 in holidays, Church, my life, working out, love life, accomplishments, wls, let's get it on

    Gypsy911 started referring to W as “Prom” a while ago … as in, what is he waiting for, prom night??? (For those of you playing along at home, it’s been 3 1/2 months since our first date.) Apparently, in these parts, prom is in...

  • From Bad to Good …

    Posted on Sunday December 13th, 2009 at 20:18 in holidays, Church, my life, love life, annoyances, let's get it on

    This morning so did not start out well. I got up and got ready for church, grabbed my stuff, left my apartment and … locked myself out. Yesterday I took my apartment and car keys off of the keychain so I could put them in my pocket and not have...

  • Go Ahead … Jump!

    Posted on Wednesday December 2nd, 2009 at 20:51 in family, holidays, my life, television, love life

    I had a quick dinner with W tonight after my hair appointment. It was nice to see him in the middle of the week. I picked him up and we went over to Red Robin. (I had to smile because when he walked out towards my car and saw me, he had a big smile o...

  • Thanksgiving Eve

    Posted on Tuesday November 24th, 2009 at 21:17 in family, holidays, my life, flirting, love life, annoyances

    I am officially on Thanksgiving vacation … I took tomorrow off so I can head north to see my family. It’s going to be a busy trip. Tomorrow evening is dinner with my friend Jen; Thursday will be spent with the fam; Friday morning, my mom ...

  • Monday, Monday …

    Posted on Monday November 2nd, 2009 at 19:51 in holidays, my life, working out, flirting, love life

    To the shock of my friends, I friended W on Facebook. Why were they surprised? That it took me two months! I’m sure that surprises none of you, though, given my commitment-itis. I was like, eh, I don’t know if I want him looking at all my...

  • Spooky!

    Posted on Sunday November 1st, 2009 at 12:59 in holidays, friends, my life, drinking

    Halloween night was a lot of fun. I didn’t recognize myself once I put on the blonde wig. There were 5 other Alices at the bar but I was the cutest. Duh. Judge for yourself: Miss Laci also looked lovely, especially her eyelashes. Yes, I manag...

  • Gimme Some Sugar

    Posted on Saturday October 31st, 2009 at 13:30 in holidays, my life, working out, love life

    Happy Halloween! I am counting down the hours until I can put on my Alice in Wonderland get-up, although I do need to iron the dress first. I hate ironing! Date went well last night. We hadn’t really decided what we were doing, and when W texte...

  • Happy Birthday to Me!

    Posted on Wednesday October 14th, 2009 at 20:38 in music, holidays, my life, flirting

    I turned 35 today and the world did not end. In fact, it was a pretty good day, aside from the weather being cold (40 degrees) and rainy. Blech. I woke up to some happy birthday messages on Twitter and a “BING BONG” text from Dana. The...

  • Worn Out

    Posted on Sunday July 5th, 2009 at 21:42 in holidays, my life, flirting, love life, annoyances

    The boys and I can all be described with one word: Tiiiiiiiired. Sephora was banished from my bedroom about 12:30 a.m., after spending 10 minutes jumping up and down trying to get to Reggie, who was on the windowsill. I woke up about 4 hours later, w...

  • Babies R Us …

    Posted on Monday May 25th, 2009 at 07:53 in school, holidays, friends, my life

    I wouldn’t say that I’m lacking a maternal instinct. It’s just … not very strong. I’ve never had an overwhelming urge to have children and now I’m like, fuck, I’m nearly 35. I don’t want to deal with al...
