Dear Rude Woman with the Pop Up:
Excuse me? Ma’am? EXCUSE ME! Please don’t act like you don’t see me standing at this camping spot. I don’t just loiter around camp sites for the heck of it. I do it because in a few moments, I would like to pitch a tent here. So please don’t [...]
My first camping trip of the summer. Good times.
When I was home a month or so ago, I came across some old pictures (hence the Glamour Shots). As I looked at one of them, I realized that I could actually remember going to get that picture taken.
I remember loving the yellow dress, even if the elastic did make red indents on my stomach.
I [...]
He knows where God lives. He knows God does not run away from suffering. He moves closer. Dandora is suffering, and God gets His mail here.
Head over to Brant Hansen’s blog today for Day 1 of the 40 Day Fast.
Last year, when blogging was still a “little thing” I did to pass the time, I stumbled across something called the 40 Day Fast. My first thought? I couldn’t live for 40 days without food. But upon closer inspection, I discovered that this 40 Day Fast was like nothing I had heard of.

I recently watched a movie that, to me, showed some absolutely beautiful examples of friendship. These were not fair weather friends. They stayed with each other throughugliness and [...]
I have no clue what to write about. Feeling pretty uninspired. So, I’ve done this once before (and I don’t feel like looking through my archives for it) but I was thinking, maybe you, dear reader, could tell me what to write about.
Don’t you like how I put the burden on you?
So in your comments, [...]
Can I just say, I love cooking for my friends. Well, the reality is, I love cooking in general, but I don’t do it very much. Because then I just have tons of leftovers that I very quickly get sick of eating. So, what I really love is creating a great menu, then finding some [...]
Okay, I’m stealing this idea from Ron. Mainly because I need to clean off my desk, and I think typing up all the crap that is currently littering it will inspire me:
TEN THINGS ON MY DESK
2 AP stylebooks
Glamour shots
Piggy bank
Copy of the 2008 State of the World’s Children
A blow-up microphone
Invitation to a baby shower that [...]
So, my friend’s been “encouraging” me to blog today, and I’m just kind of at a loss. Don’t know what to say. So, I decided I would share a quick story with you that happened to me this weekend.
As you know, I went to my friend’s race to cheer for her. As I was stumbling [...]
