I'm Not Dead
I just bought a house. A good blogger would take photos every step of the process. I suppose that makes me a bad blogger because instead I’ve been spending every night cursing, carrying boxes, screwing in blinds, heading to Home Depot, etc. I’m moving all my furniture in tomorrow so I’m taking a half day today to do some final cleaning and moving most of my boxes over. (Yipee!)...

A Place of My Own
My goal in the next two months is to purchase a home of my own. Rent at my apartment keeps getting higher and I figure I can afford the monthly payments of a home for the same price. On top of cost there are other things I am so excited to have in a condo or house that I don’t have now. It’s amazing what you take for granted until you don’t have it. I’ll keep you updated on...

...On why I'm the best friend ever.
One of my best friends always talks about how she wishes she could have a really nice Coach purse. She’s had countless knock-offs, but never a real one, because she’s less prone to spoiling herself (unlike me). Recently I received a 25% off coupon to Coach and called her hubby up and told him to meet me at the store on a Saturday morning. His initial sticker shock was cute,...

You know you work in a geeky science company...
You see this as a part of someone’s auto-signature at the bottom of their email: “No trees were killed in the sending of this message but a large number of electrons were terribly inconvenienced.”

Yuck.
One of those days where I think, “Yes, I know there are other people with problems far worse than mine, but I need a hug and to know that everything is going to be okay.”

Meet Me in St. Louis
One of my absolute favorite things about Meet Me in St. Louis is a look at just how proper things were back in 1904. I lust after the beautiful dresses and hair-dos and I envy their manners and courting rituals. Yes, this makes me old-fashioned and I love it. If you haven’t seen this film yet you absolutely must. Observe below. Esther Smith: I’m going to let John Truett kiss me...

My Mom Ruined My Excitement
Me: Guess what I got?!
Mom: A raise?
Me: No...
Mom: Your house?
Me: You're making my surprise less exciting.
Mom: I'm sorry, you told me to guess. Oh! A date!
Me: Thanks, and no. I got tickets to Spamalot for us!
Mom: Oh, okay. Which one is that again?
Me:

A very characteristic conversation
KATHLEEN: Sad story only you will understand: I was dreaming of a piece of Nick's leftover baby shower cake from Wednesday. When I went in to go get a piece, it was all in the trash! For about 2 seconds I considered taking some out.
‎‎KATE: that is just wrong
‎‎KATHLEEN: me going in for it, or throwing it away?
‎‎KATE: throwing it away...I mean, please don't eat garbage cake.
‎‎KATHLEEN: phew, you scared me.
‎KATE: but yeah, travesty.
‎‎KATHLEEN: It was upsetting. the frosting was chocolate whipped cream. It tasted like pudding....PUDDING CAKE!

Normal?
The past few months I’ve found that I am much more content staying at home by myself on weekends relaxing and watching a movie than going out. I’m 25 so I feel like I am SUPPOSED to want to go out at night and go to bars and get drunk, blah, blah, blah. The truth is, I’m so happy that I had to opportunity this evening to make dessert popcorn, set up my Christmas tree, and I am...

Glee Thoughts - Special Education
1. No matter who sings it, Mike and the Mechanics’ The Living Years will leave me blubbering and thinking about my mom and her relationship with her dad, my grandpa. 2. Darren Criss is super dreamy and I hope he stays on the show for a long time. 3. Brittany does Motocross?! 4. Nearly peed myself when Sam started singing Time of My Life. Love this song. Have I ever mentioned my desire to...
