You’ll have to excuse me, but this summer has been a freak show of chaos and if it weren’t for the expiration date on my mozzarella, I would have had no clue that we were approaching the 10 year anniversary of September 11, 2001. I know lately I’ve put on my introspective alter ego and you’re [...]

Last night, I had a shocking revelation that I’m cursed. This is even more serious than my nearly fatal, almost-heart-attack and 7 other legitimate, self-diagnosed diseases, except not really. Have I lost you already? Interesting. Maybe it’s because you’re cursed too. Although, I have fruit loops as my screen saver, so I would take my [...]

I kept a journal over the past week, to help process my thoughts. It’s not the most uplifting, but, it’s life. 8.4.11 {Donuts.} I’m writing this while at the hospital, laying on the bed across from my grandpa.

Sometimes she will say, “I think I’m losing my mind, Brit. I don’t know up from down anymore.” Then I’ll look at her, smile, and ask, “Which way is up?”  She points to the sky; I call her a liar and she laughs. It’s the most appropriate human response I have to fact that she [...]

I don’t know if you’ve ever been to a fair or not. Here in the Midwest, fairs are kind of a big deal. It’s all the farmers and corn and cows and stuff. Thus, I have very specific expectations in mind when a “fair” is involved. There needs to be a hint of funnel cakes [...]

You're two years older and still like reading pointless stuff on the INTERNETS.] I’m currently babysitting my best friend’s 6 month old.  Yes, the same best friend who pumps breast [...]
