This week’s sour mood has been brought to you by Nissan. “I’ll just leave this right here,” I thought, as I sneakily left a Nissan brochure on my dad’s nightstand on the last day of my Puerto Rico vacation. That was seven years ago. A few months following that, I turned 18, walked across the… Read More Flipping the Bird Friday: My 2009 Nissan Altima Paperweight
Baby it’s cold outside! Hope everyone up north stayed safe, warm and indoors during the blizzard (looking at my nephew’s Snapchat of him playing outside in the snow… #helicopteraunt) and that all my Floridian friends put on an extra pair of socks over the weekend. I’ve gotten a few questions regarding if I’ve started working… Read More Day Trip to Bok Tower Gardens
I’ve never been overweight; the scales have never tipped over 150 for me and at 145 pounds I am at a considerably healthy weight for my tall-ish figure.

Sorry I’ve been MIA, but I’ve been writing a lot of blogs for my job’s website (don’t judge) and the thought of coming home and churning out more content has left me like… Honestly, I haven’t had much time to sit down and write.… Read More I’m ready for you, 2016.
Raise your hand if your recent attempts at Christmas shopping have ended up as shopping sprees for yourself. Guilty! There’s a scene in Serendipity in which Jonathan says to Sara, “I hope you enjoy the gloves you bought yourself,” and she says, “Oh, I’m sure I will. I usually enjoy my own thoughtfulness.” Sara is… Read More #HappyHipsterHolidays & Wedding Pics
You did it! You fought the urge to stay in that gravy-stained sweatshirt-and-leggings combination you’ve been lounging in for a few days. You took a shower. You’re ready to make a contribution to society. Hope you made the most of your holiday break! Other than stuffing my face with food at my friends’… Read More The Pineapple Incident: I got a tattoo
Over the weekend, a cold front slowly slid across Central Florida, bringing with it something us Floridians yearn for during the holidays: SWEATER WEATHER! However, sporting my boots and scarves in 49-degree weather did not prepare me for losing complete feeling of my hands and face. Let me explain… I was lucky enough to spend… Read More ICE! brings holiday classic to life
Christmas is a month away! Cue A Very She & Him Christmas on repeat, quoting Elf nonstop (Bye, buddy! Hope you find your dad!) and CHRISTMAS DECORATING!
