Moving on and settling down…all at once
Baby BenjaminPosted by beth on September 12, 2011
The next thing I’ve been up to that kept me occupied all last weekend is I went up to northern Virginia to visit my friend Rachel and my godchildren. Yes! There are now TWO!! And oh how precious and adorable is the wee babe, Ben. He’s two months old and super-chill. He just hangs out, [...]
Vacation: Day 1 – Professionalism FailPosted by beth on December 13, 2010
Well first let’s start with an update on my vacation to-do list progress. I spent the weekend with Rachel and Annabelle baking. And hooooo-boy did we bake! I think we made about 90 buck-eye balls, about the same number of pretzels with melted Rolos and pecans on top, roughly 50 Christmas wreaths, and when I [...]
Jesus Is Totally RadicalPosted by beth on July 21, 2010
This is not necessarily a story I want to write with my life, but seeing as I do not have that post finished yet, and this just came up the other day, I figured I’d tell y’all about it. I was talking to Emily Furr Hogan about that summer (I think it was ’98) when [...]
Mix emotions thoroughly. Sad and happy to taste.Posted by beth on July 12, 2010
I’m excited about my upcoming move to Raleigh. I really am. And I know that it’s the absolute best thing for me right now in a lot of ways, but this weekend made me extra sad to leave Asheville. Friday night, I had dinner with my friend Jen (aka Community), who is actually a friend [...]
What Would You Do (oo-ooo) With a Time Machine?Posted by beth on June 24, 2010
I realized this morning that I’ve been neglecting my questions lately. I’m trying to find a balance between answering those and just telling you fun stories about what’s happening. For the most part, there aren’t a lot of fun stories about what’s happening because my days are spent sitting on my couch, writing articles, and [...]
Virginia Is for DancersPosted by beth on June 22, 2010
Lovers schmovers. I went to Virginia last weekend to see my friend Rachel and her daughter (my goddaughter), Annabelle. Annabelle turned 5 last week, so we had a birthday party, and it just so happened that her dance recital was the same weekend, so I got to go to that too. It was ridiculously cute. [...]
Things That Happened TodayPosted by beth on June 16, 2010
I cut a jerk off (because he was being a jerk) at 3 mph. He honked at me to show his dissatisfaction. He then turned on his bright lights, I can only assume, to prove once again that he was a jerk. On the side of the freeway, I saw one of those big, cylindrical [...]
Twitter ExperimentPosted by beth on June 15, 2010
I’m writing an article for YourDictionary entitled “Who Is Jimmy Fallon’s Wife?” I love writing these who’s-married-to-whom articles because there’s always a love story involved, and I just think that’s precious. Unfortunately, not much of J.Fal’s love story is online. And yes, I just nicknamed him J.Fal. What of it? So I just tweeted, “I [...]
Have you ever…?Posted by beth on June 11, 2010
Today, I have a story for you. Rather than answering a question, it’s a story about a question I was asked yesterday. I was on the phone with DLF on my way to work, and sort of out of nowhere, she asked me, “Have you ever taught drunk?” Now let’s take a break from the [...]
Question of the DayPosted by beth on April 13, 2010
Today’s question comes from my formspring page. I’m not sure if someone actually asked me this, or if maybe formspring just felt bad for me because no one was asking me anything, so they threw one out there for me to answer. I don’t really care. It’s a good question. What are your long-term plans [...]
