On the left side of the sanity bell curve
There’s a double-edged sword thing when it comes to being diagnosed as “cyclothymic.” On the one hand, I count my damn blessings I’m not Bipolar I or II; I cycle too quickly to meet the criteria for either. On the other hand/edge/whatever, I’m still left with murmurs of the aforementioned disorders and they still dick… Continue reading Channeling the Ant: I Promise It’s Not What You’re Expecting
I have entered no man’s land with regards to where I stand in the blogging world. And that’s awesome when you’re just blogging cause you want to write about what’s going on with your life and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. BUT, when you’re wanting to gain some respect in MULTIPLE areas, it’s… Continue reading Where Do I Go From Here?
It’s not a good idea to drink two big cans of NOS about an hour before you plan on going to sleep. Trust me. Alot. [That’s a link to a tweet I posted which led to a rather lengthy Twitter discussion revolving around people’s mutual hatred of “a lot” spelled “alot.” It’s kind of like… Continue reading Sparkly Crotch and a Dance Fight
Thanks goodness for Notepad ++. Cause that’s where I’m typing this right now. Though you just assume I typed this into the magical blogging thing and out popped this post thing. Silly reader. Our wireless router has finally given up the ghost and we’ll have a connection for a minute and then no connection. Translation?… Continue reading Ollie. A Bead. The Emergency Room.
I read a post a couple of weeks ago that hypothesized the only way someone became successful at blogging was by taking a strong stance on something. This line of thinking has been going on since the end of last year when I was compiling a list of my favorite posts on Taste Like Crazy… Continue reading Get a Strong Opinion
When I was driving through the hills between Nashville and my house, I had grand plans for the post that would sum up Blissdom better than any other post on the internet. The post would be amazing, inspiring and not one of those posts where only the folks who attended the conference appreciate them.You know… Continue reading Blissdom 2011 Recap…Hopefully It’s Not THAT Boring
What’s funny about my post yesterday is it started out to be about how I was going to complain about looking at a really nice house today that we can afford and about how Tucker’s been put in for two new jobs – both in NE Florida. Obviously those two events are diametrically opposed. So? See?… Continue reading Blogging Isn’t Real Life
I bitch at Tucker a lot. I realize this, he realizes this but doesn’t complain about it too often. He’s not henpecked or anything…mostly he just listens and files it away for future bitch sessions at me. My all-time favorite thing to bitch at Tucker about it how he’s better at everything than me. Correction.… Continue reading Santa’s a Sham and Tucker Does Everything Better
Any blogging “expert” will tell you that the key to blogging “success” is to write and write often. Based on my performance recently, I suppose I’m on the fast track to blogging failure. It’s just that right now, I feel like I have this basket [mine’s one of those old timey wicker affairs that I… Continue reading My Basket
I haven’t died. I haven’t quit blogging. I wasn’t so emotionally spent by my past post that I had to hide or take a break. I have found myself amazingly behind with work and unfortunately, that means that it takes priority over this site. Sucks, but that’s how it is. I appreciate all of the… Continue reading Work Kicks Mah Butt
It’s official, y’all. I’m going to BlogHer ’09! WOO HOO!!! The first year I was new to the game and had just started blogging. The second year, I was pregnant and had a very small Cara to deal with. Now, I have an Ollie who will be ten months and can hang with his dad… Continue reading I’m Going to BlogHer, Y’all
*I’m making this a “sticky” post since I had to remove my donate box. The box has been moved to the end of this post if you were wondering* I had just started blogging when BlogHer ’07 happened. I can remember reading all of the posts and thinking how freakin’ cool and damn scary it… Continue reading Help Me Get to BlogHer
