Moving on and settling down…all at once
Well Now That That’s OverPosted by beth on March 9, 2010
Thirtieth birthday – Check. And now that I’ve gotten that out of the way, I can go back to being 29. Here’s what I’ve decided: There is nothing wrong with the number 30 or the age. I’m not upset that I’m 30. I don’t long for younger days or miss the glory of my youth. [...]
My 20s. All of them.Posted by beth on March 6, 2010
And just like that, my 20s are over. Man, what an awesome decade. I’m going to try to do a recap of all my 20s birthdays and hit the highlights of some of the incredible things I’ve had the opportunity to do in the last ten years. I’m old, though, so I might not remember [...]
Old TimersPosted by beth on March 4, 2010
Tomorrow is the last day of my 20s. OH MY GOSH. It’s just so weird. I don’t feel 30. I still feel 23. If you were to ask high school senior Beth where she thought she’d be at 30, you would get an answer that in no way resembles my current life. If you asked [...]
When Fun Things Aren’t FunPosted by beth on March 3, 2010
I babysat all day today, and while they are cool kids, they wear me out when I have them together because I feel more like a referee than anything else. Within the first five minutes, and then every two minutes thereafter, it’s, “Beth, can you tell her to…” or “Beth, can’t you make her stop…” [...]
Blast from the PastPosted by beth on February 27, 2010
I was reminded of these little films on Monday at my writing group, and then I was telling Rae about them later – particularly #11, Bluebirds in Spring. But they’re all still so good (well maybe not #5 – it’s not my favorite). If you haven’t seen them in a while, do revisit them. If [...]
Yes, it’s really 1:45 a.m.Posted by beth on
Every few months, I get to feeling antsy and what’s-the-point-ish about my blog. Why bother? It’s not like I’m saying anything life-changing or earth-shattering, after all. But then I remember that I just really like doing it, and that some things that happen are just too good to keep to myself. For example, I went [...]
Winner Winner Chicken Dinner FAILPosted by beth on February 25, 2010
It’s always a pleasure to catch up with either of my Joshes, but last night, Whitney-Josh had THE most amazing story for me. Ever. And let me just say that you know a story is going to be good when someone like Whitney kicks it off by saying, “So I was watching the Tyra show…” [...]
Still Not About the Boat ShowPosted by beth on February 24, 2010
Honestly, by the time I get around to talking about the boat show, no one is going to care (if there’s anyone even now who cares). But I still haven’t found the cord, and SOMEbody still hasn’t sent me The Picture, so today, I have two topics I’d like to discuss.
First of all, I FINALLY [...]
Not About the Boat ShowPosted by beth on February 23, 2010
I know many of you are just squirming in your office chairs waiting for me to post pictures and VIDEO!!!! from this weekend’s Powerboat Show and Sale. I can’t post them yet, though, for two reasons:
I’m waiting for SOMEBODY to scan and email me The Picture because the one I have is not good. It [...]
Thoughts on LentPosted by beth on February 17, 2010
You know, Lent means a lot of things to a lot of people, but today, for me, it means that my roommate and her boyfriend gave up sweets before finishing off a bag of Double Stuf Oreos, leaving the rest for me!!
Also, I’m beginning to think that giving up Facebook is too easy, and that [...]
