5 Dec 2009This afternoon, The General and I joined my hometown friend Angie in her first ever shopping trip at IKEA. She was in town for some type of leadership conference involving some of her high school students and I was very excited to see her and go shopping at my absolute favorite store of all time. [...]
The General and I were on the way home from dinner tonight and I can’t remember how the conversation started, but I know the end of it went a little something like this:
Me: So you’ve always been attracted to quirky people?
The General: Pretty much.
Me: Wait – I’m not quirky, am I?
The General: Not really…
Me: Then [...]

3 Jun 2009When you’re with someone for over a year and haven’t really spent a single night apart (as least that I can remember), it’s pretty weird when you have to see the person off for the night and then have to figure out what to do with your time until you go to sleep.
The General has [...]

26 Apr 2009Me: I’m awesome. My work is awesome (I’m still not sure how I landed the perfect role for me) and this coming week will mark 1 year being there for me. I’m seeing a therapist weekly and my desire to smash my face against restaurant windows while happy hour patrons are happily munching away on [...]
Big weekend! It was Official Lease Signing Weekend, which means we’re obligated by law to stay together for at least 12 more months beginning January 15th. Or at least obligated to pay rent on the same place! ;)
And, look! Here’s the bathtub:
There’s no shower, but The General seems to think it won’t be that big [...]

This means Wednesday nights are Single Parent Nights for me. Last week, we went to Ax Man to get supplies for The 3 Day, which included a red [...]

10 Jul 2008Things I saw after I turned my computer off at work and headed down the elevator until just right now:
A co-worker leaning into the back window of his VW Passat while cleaning safety glass out. Someone was ballsy enough to punch in the window in the middle of the afternoon while it was parked in [...]

5 Jul 2008The Generalâ„¢ and I just returned home from a lovely Saturday night date that included a trip to the dog park, followed by a romantical (in the words of Flavor Flav) dinner at Denny’s on Lake Street in Minneapolis. We know how to live it up with the rest of them.
After we left, we were [...]

2 Jul 2008This evening I accidentally found a bunch of people (okay one) person that I work with on a somewhat regular basis at my job on the internet. And you know what that means? I had to obsessively stalk this partciular person in every single way possible: Twitter, Flickr, oh you name it and I stalked [...]

1 Jun 2008I forget I have this blog. No, really. I’m too wrapped up in so many levels of awesome that it’s the last thing on my mind. Pretty sure that’s the first time since 1999 that I haven’t been walking around going “Hey! I should totally write about this on two dolla!”
My friends are always awesome [...]
