My Roots

I’ve chopped off my hair. Literally. From my shoulders to where you see it. All gone. I’ve been tossing around the idea of going natural (where I don’t chemically treat my roots to straighten them) for a year. My laziness when it comes to good hair care is damn near legendary and I like what …

My Day

It’s my birthday today! I’m 29, the last year of my 20s underway. What’s on my mind? The things I reveal on my blog. My forays into dating lately have made me question not the nature of this blog, but whether I need to tell potential beaus about it. I put my link up on …

Frustrated

I peel myself out of my leggings and pull on a pair of peach-colored panties. Disappointment hovers like a sour note over me as I trek to the kitchen for a Corona. I’m not planning on drowning my sorrows in alcohol, but I’ve needed a beer since Sunday evening and this is the only way …

Vulnerable Moment

Just give me this one personal moment and I’ll get back to business as usual. Someone very close to me is having surgery this morning. I’m knowledgable of the risks and know the surgeon is capable, but I’m letting worst case scenarios spin through my mind. First, I’ll admit some of my worry stems from …
