This Christmas I wasn’t necessarily as spoiled as last years gone past – chalk it up to the economy and my parents’ paying for my sister’s college. But it was one of the best Christmases I’ve had. I, myself, personally made a decision to purchase really good gifts for an elite group, and not every extended family member. The extendeds received homemade fudge and caramel corn,... Read more

Welcome back, Interneters. I know you’re all coming down from your sugar plum dreams and chocolate kisses. I know I’m coming down – or should I say coming UP – from a lot of horizontalness the past week and food hangovers like you would not believe. I’m pretty sure all I can think about right now is how I want my NYE resolution to be NEVER EAT AGAIN. (I write as I eat Fritos’ Honey BBQ Flavor... Read more

I know that those reading in outlying... Read more

It’s hard to do all this holiday gift shopping and not pick up a few items for yourself – I don’t really have the budget for it, but I can’t pass up the deals; oh the deals! (Yesterday I scored black Express dress pants for $25, which are normally $80-$100!) So, I was just reading through Dooce’s Gift Guide 2008 today, and was reminded of these neat little Ork city...

I think a lot of times, us coupled types can get comfortable in our relationships and fail to really see our partner through a fresh pair of eyes. After a good amount of time has gone by, you see the other person in sweats and slippers more than than you see them dressed, and it’s easy to forget to compliment quite as much or not pick apart silly stuff. I’m terrible at this. Lately I’ve... Read more
