Posted by beth on December 2, 2011

A lot of things have come together today to form these thoughts, and while they’re not yet fully coherent, I wanted to share with you what I’ve got so far. We are not polliwogs. Wait, you already knew that? That’s because you’re brilliant. But allow me to explain. We come into the world as fully [...]

Posted by beth on October 20, 2011

1. I’m totally addicted to Pinterest. I love it, and I want to spend more time browsing the internet looking for things to pin, but I just don’t have that much time to waste. I think it’s probably for the best. 2. I’m in the middle of the second Bible test, and so far, I [...]

Posted by beth on October 13, 2011

Ok so now that everybody pretty much knows, I guess I can talk about it. I might be moving to Europe. It’s weird to type it out into the world like that. So far, it’s just been discussed privately among a few close, trusted friends and people I knew would understand and be excited with [...]

Posted by beth on September 26, 2011

So I just took a Bible test, which I’m pretty sure I failed miserably. It’s not that I don’t know what it says, it’s just that I don’t know where it says it. There were all these questions about where one might find certain verses or passages on certain topics, and I sat here staring [...]

Posted by beth on May 2, 2011

I’m not sad that Osama bin Laden is no longer with us. I do not mourn his absence from our world. But the general response to his death has disturbed me, and I just have to say this. I am generally pretty nonpolitical, mostly because I’m not confident enough in my ideas to take a [...]

Posted by beth on October 12, 2010

I’ve just finished reading a book called About You by Dick Staub, and although the subject matter is exactly the kind of thing I love to talk about, the whole thing left me wanting more and feeling like I could have done a better job of writing it. No offense, Mr. Staub. I just didn’t [...]

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 [...]

Posted by beth on May 26, 2010

Y’all seriously, I have an UNHEALTHY NEED to combine words. I literally can’t stop myself. Like in the title there, do you see what I did? I have 2 questions today, both about tattoos, and I just couldn’t help it. It’s a sickness. But here we go with the questions. What’s the tattoo, and where [...]

Posted by beth on May 14, 2010

Oh my gosh, y’all, I just checked my formspring page, and I have LOTS of questions!! Great work! I can’t decide whether to answer them in the order they were received or in the order I feel like answering. I suppose in the interest of fairness, I should answer them from oldest to most recently [...]

Posted by beth on April 29, 2010

As you may recall, I posted a review last week of Jason Boyett’s new book, O Me of Little Faith. Well, I had the opportunity to sit down with Jason and ask him a few questions. And by “sit down with,” I mean, I sat down and emailed him, and I think he probably sat [...]
