True Confession Tuesday
uncmeg:
since i was a kid, i’ve always been terrified that everyone is going to forget my birthday. i think it has to do with having a summer birthday: it means that you never get birthday cupcakes at school and everyone’s family is always on vacation during your birthday party.
(birthday countdown: 14 days.)
This is pretty much why I hated my birthday up until the age of 18. Having near...

Normally, this would not be a good thing. This year? After a month straight of rain? And the fact that it’s practically the fourth of July and just now feels like the beginning of summer? Oh yes, this year, the sunburn feels magical.

According to a new survey of 4000 women, ages 25-65, women are happiest at age 28. Breaking it down, we are…
- happiest in career at age 29. - most content in relationships at age 30. - have the best sex at age 28. - most secure in their finances at 33. - at ease with their family life at 32.
At age (almost) 24, I’m pretty certain that the best is still yet to come. I think your...

In addition to Farrah Fawcett and MJ, I also learned that an old friend’s father drowned in Greece and another friend got in a car accident.
That’s quite, quite enough for one day. Universe, do you hear me? You can stop now.

Password Sadism
A few months back I had to change my computer password at work. With the excitement of summer coming, I chose SUNSHINE. Now, the first thing I have to do every morning is type SUNSHINE into my computer. It is officially the most sadistic way to start my day.

So I watched Jon + Kate Plus 8 and I cried like a baby.
At one point, while trying to hold herself together, Kate said, “Now my kids will say, “I was __ years old when my parents split up.”
That’s when the waterworks really kicked in.
I’m one of those kids. My parents split up when I was three and my father has been in and out of my life for various reasons ever since. Last year,...
Since when did I start getting grown-up mail?
When I was growing up, I loved getting mail. Then at college, it became a contest with other friends to see who got the best stuff. Then I moved to the city and went days without checking my mail. Now I have to check it daily and I hate it (besides my Netflix) because I constantly get important bank statements, school information, bills. Does this mean I’m an adult? I don’t like it.

It’s official. They did my home state proud.
