It’s only Wednesday, and this week has been quite the adjustment. I always struggle with post-travel-blues; but this time, a couple added stressors have been thrown into the mix. Such is life; but, my emotions have gone a little haywire since the afternoon crowd at Universal Studios a couple days ago– I’m still feeling a…

Back in Action
Vacation: it’s one of my favorite pastimes (duh, it’s probably everyone’s). I’ve been away for five days in Florida getting a theme park fix and spending a little time with the ocean. If you know me personally, you’re surely aware that akin to my obsession with Coldplay is my affinity for Disney World. My last trip…
Look at the Stars Pt. 2
Time for another hippy dippy post on astrology. Shoot, have I lost you already? Have a sense of humor, my friends– this is fun. Last week I mentioned that I went on a couple dates with another new guy. I tell you what, I spend a year convincing myself that I am un-dateable and that…
Reality TV
Typically, this is the time of year when my energy level hits an all-time low. It seems this year is no exception. I couldn’t force a new post out this week. It wasn’t that I was void of material; but rather, I had no desire to write my thoughts down. Last night, something shifted– suddenly,…

Lost in Translation
Fun fact, it’s been six years since the photo up there was taken. I thought it was only a second ago– what is happening to time? Anyway: Last night I met with my therapist at her new office in the Loop. I took the train like an assimilated Chicagoan, passed all the tourist spots, and…
Panera and Potty Training
Happy Monday! Oprah’s Golden Globes speech– it’s a must see. I wish I had written it. I can’t imagine that you would enjoy reading about the things I have to say and not appreciate her words. You’ll find the video here. In other news, remember that I was feeling under the weather on Friday? Well,…
