Well friends, it’s after 4:00 on a Thursday, so you know what that means… PLAY CLOTHES!!! That’s right! I’m on my couch in my jabambas catching up on the TV I missed this week while I was doing big girl work. It’s great. There’s just one problem: I can’t breathe through my nose. You see, [...]

Posted by beth on November 13, 2010

Oh friends, tonight was so enlightening. Please allow me to share with you what I learned from the Eric Kearns show. When something is free and you go ready to be entertained no matter what, you ALWAYS get your money’s worth. I’m telling you, for sheer entertainment value, this show definitely ranked in my top [...]

Sooooooo…I was listening to a local oldies station this morning when they said to call in and finish this candy bar jingle: “Sometimes you feel like a nut…” Clearly I had to do it. I mean, you tell me to recall lyrics, and I just do it. There’s really nothing I can do to stop [...]

I’ve been having really vivid dreams lately that involve everything from celebrity sightings to grand theft auto. A week or two ago, I dreamed that I stole a van and ended up in the van INSIDE a building at a camp. I don’t know exactly how I got the van in the room, but no [...]

As you may already know, The Container Store is opening in Raleigh this weekend. And since I hosted that giveaway a while back, they gave me a ticket to a “private” preview party, which took place last night. L-Josh and I went, and Amaris was supposed to come too, but she got…lost? Yeah, we’ll call [...]

Posted by beth on September 24, 2010

As if my life weren’t already lived in songs, song titles and movie quotes, here’s a fun challenge my sister was telling me about earlier. Apparently this has been going around the internet, but if you haven’t already done it and want to, feel free. Here’s how it works: Using only song names from ONE [...]

Posted by beth on August 21, 2010

Hey friends! I’m at the family reunion! So far, it’s been pretty fun. Yesterday, we went into Franklin, VA to the Elms, which was my great-great-grandparents’ house, and I’ma just say that you know a house is awesome when it’s named. When I grow up and have a house, I’m going to name it something [...]

My brain is empty. There’s no activity whatsoever except for “Candle on the Water” playing as a sort of screen saver. My days are going something like this: Wake up. Sit on the couch. Apply aloe to crispy legs. Watch an episode of Pushing Daisies while I eat breakfast. Catch up on email/facebook/twitter. Shower. Be [...]

I live in a musical, if only in my own mind. There’s always a song playing in my head, always a lyric to fit the occasion, and if I had my way, we’d all burst into spontaneous, choreographed dance in the streets daily. The weather (natural lighting) would also fit our moods, and our outfits [...]

Posted 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 [...]
