I totally had another post started earlier this week. I was going to tell you all (and by “all” I mean mom, dad, brother and R) about the recurring dream I have where my teeth keep crumbling out of my mouth while I’m talking. No joke. But then I got sick. And you KNOW what [...]

The Buckle & The Boyfriend
It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than a woman to find a good pair of jeans. If Jesus had worn denim, he would have said that. And all three women who read this blog nod with a yes and amen. So the rule is that whenever I [...]

Narcolepsy by Snuggie
I had what you might consider a “challenging” day at work. So my boyfriend (R) ordered some Thai food, we pigged out, and then fell deep into conversation — normal for us. We’re both talkers. And listeners. I love it. At some point during the evening, I got cold and grabbed the Snuggie that my [...]

The Mug & Hug
Today I was talking to my friend D in the kitchen while she was heating her tea in the microwave. (We were deep in discussion about the appropriate way to tell your boyfriend that his breath is bad). I wish I could say that when I heard the explosion, I didn’t laugh. But I did, [...]

No to Roe
40 million pre-born children dead. I was super thrilled to see that for the 36th year in a row, pro-life citizens marched on the National Mall in support of defending pre-born life — on the anniversary of the destructive Supreme Court decision Roe v. Wade. God bless Nellie Gray, who started the whole thing. And [...]

Re-Publishing and Mr. Murphy Visits My Cubicle
Throughout the day I think of various things I could potentially blog about. One of the things I keep thinking I’ll write about, but then always forget to, is how often I end up correcting misspelled words or poor sentence structure after I’ve already posted my blog. Which leaves me hitting the “publish” button oh, [...]

In My Head
Here are the things that go through my head in a typical day: 1) Why am I late AGAIN? 2) Can I eat breakfast AND shower BEFORE I take my dog out to potty, or will she pee on the carpet when I’m not looking? 3) Why did I leave the coffee pot 1/3 full [...]

A Spectacularly Ordinary Post
I don’t have cable. And for good reason. I would get nothing done. EVER. And it’s not even that I have a favorite one or two cable shows that I could, you know, watch and then at show’s end go do the dishes or something else productive. Nope. I will watch WHATEVER comes on. For [...]

2 Dog Night
I am dogsitting my friend’s Boxer for two days. His name is Simon (the dog, not my friend. But if my friend’s name was Simon, then I’d start the sentence with “Simon says.” And then laugh at my clever humor). But I digress. Simon is, of course, the love interest of my sweet dog, Emma. [...]

How Barack Obama Will Make Christ a Minister of Condemnation :: Desiring God
How Barack Obama Will Make Christ a Minister of Condemnation :: Desiring God. There is really no other biblical teacher I’ve found with whom I agree more. John Piper speaks the truth that no one else will dare say and discusses the things most of us never even consider.
