So. End of October. Halloween! I don't have a regular What I Wore post for today, and I'm not dressing up for anything this year. As an adult no longer in college, a self-employed person, and as someone who doesn't really like bar-hopping, there aren't a whole lot of...
1. I had grand plans to be super productive in the internet world today (work and blog and shop stuff), and then I had my annual eye doctor appointment. I wear contacts, in case you didn't know. And today's exam included a pupil dilation, which takes a few hours to...
Today is my birthday! I'm actually writing this the night before, because tomorrow I'll be hanging out with Ian at a vineyard and an Italian restaurant and who knows what other shenanigans. I was looking around for a good my-birthday-this-many-years-ago photo to...

Linking up with Lena for the Tuesday 10. 🙂 1. I used to play WoW (World of Warcraft). The recent new expansion has made me consider re-activating my account, but honestly I think I'm done with it. 2. I do still play The Sims 3. Miniature lives completely under my...
1. It's October, which means new sponsors (check them out in the sidebar) and lots of awesome things but mostly: it's my birthday month! It should be good times here on the blog. I sat down with my planner yesterday and plotted out some fun stuff, and started thinking...
Right now, I am... enjoying the two new music albums I got this week, the new Ben Folds Five and the new Mumford & Sons. It's rare that I buy new music, but both of these were worthy causes. waiting for the UPS truck to deliver the long-sleeved stock shirts I ordered...
There's been a lot of talk swirling around the blogosphere about the authenticity of blogging and how we all only see a curated version of a blogger's life, not all the real nitty gritty. Whether it's because we feel we always have to present a positive, shiny...
