title pic Field Day of Dreams

Posted by beth on November 29, 2008

Just before I woke up, I dreamed that I was sitting outside on a bench. It was a big, round bench with a big, round, wooden block in the middle, and there were people sitting all over it. They wanted me to come up with some kind of game that we could all play together [...]

Well, so far, I think only Lauren and one other person think that this is a good idea, and Lauren was in on the development stages of this ridiculousness, so…we need some more input. It’s been mostly negative thus far. Here’s the deal.
Around Christmastime, it is not uncommon to hear a commotion on your lawn [...]

It just doesn’t occur to me sometimes that I say bizarre things that people who don’t know me might think are…very weird. For example, I got the following message on my facebook wall yesterday, and it cracked me up for about an hour. I don’t know Kim’s boss, and he does not know me. And [...]

Posted by beth on

Is it Thursday already? That’s crazy. The weeks are just flying by now that all my weekend activities and obligations have been enjoyed and/or taken care of. Today was the last day of my afternoon classes, which means that I’m only working 20 hours a week from here on out (“here on out” being the [...]

I’ll have to regale you with the tale of ‘A Non-Christmas Carol’ later as I am still gathering data. In the meantime, I wish, oh I WISH I could tell you about the conversation Whitney and I had earlier. I can’t because it would make people uncomfortable, but suffice it to say that it involved [...]

I’m-a just put it in a bullet-point list.

sassy necklaces
lots of dresses (ahem…excuse to shop) I can put on later and laugh about
not having to plan a wedding
not having to pay for a wedding
an iPod shuffle
not having to live with a boy and all his boy-stank
not having to spend a thousand dollars on a dress you [...]

title pic even though I feel bad, I shan’t apologize

Posted by beth on November 10, 2008

I don’t want every post to start out with an apology. I don’t even want some of them to start that way, come to think of it. I just want us to enjoy each other, so when I fail to post anything for a week, I’m not going to start out by apologizing when I [...]

title pic I’m a quasi-responsible citizen!!

Posted by beth on November 4, 2008

I voted. I have the sticker to prove it. I had a whole long blog post written about why I’d finally decided to vote after so much apathy and indecision. And the internet ate it. So watch these ridiculous videos instead, and pretend I still don’t care about important things.
And this one is AMAZING. Who [...]
