My 33rd bday is on July 4th. Gah. I’m getting older and have no job. Talk about depressing! So, if you have an abundance of cash lying around and are thinking, “Gee, I wish I …

Hi kids. Let’s talk hair.
We all have different hair types; curly, straight, thick, thin, you name it. Mine happens to be very fine and wants to do some sort of strange wave thing. It angers me daily. I had been cutting my hair short for a while; no particular reason, just really liked how it looked. Then, for reasons to be revealed momentarily, I decided to grow it out.
And I have been miserable ever since.
Now, let’s talk about the reasons I decided to grow my hair out. Number one, I …

We are expected to be independent women nowadays. Weakness is frowned upon.
I’m a worrier. I worry about everything. I even fretted because I didn’t feel strong and independent when I would lay awake at night, worrying about things.
I recently read about the need for companionship. There are studies that show that people who don’t perceive themselves as lonely live longer, healthier lives.

Heather @I Digress has issued a challenge to me after I admitted that the ENTIRE back seat of my car is full of Untethered Flying Objects (UFOs):
She said, “Maybe at least one of us will change our ways. I’m countin’ on YOU, Ms. Modern!”
Crikey!
And boy does Heather ever know about UFO’s. At age 20, she broke her back during a car accident which may or may not have been caused by her HUGE. UNTETHERED. FLYING. OBJECT. (aka her Huge. *ssed Boom Box) that flew through the air with the greatest of …
