Spoiler alert - the tea does nothing. Tuesday, May 17th I wish I could talk to someone about depression but I don't know where to start and I worry it will be too expensive and I don't want to risk being dropped from my medical insurance. I was so happy this morning and now I just feel empty and there's no reason for it and it happens all the time. Even Derek doesn't understand at all and he pretty much just ignores it. One day I'm going to lose though and there's nothing I can do to stop it and I don't want to do that to him or to my parents but the thoughts just come so naturally, like it's the most casual thing in the world that I would go sit in the car in the garage and never wake up again, like "Oh, I'll just go do that now" and I always stop myself before I even get up from my chair, but what are the odds that my crazy broken brain will or can prevent it forever? I felt great this morning. I had such a productive day. Everythi...

In the market for a new summer wardrobe? Check out my Tradesy store ! Brands I'm selling include Shabby Apple, Coldwater Creek, Laura Ashley, Charter Club, Longchamp, and more. There are dresses, suits, sweaters, jackets, shoes, shirts, vests, and pants. I have more clothes to upload (like, a million more. How did I run out of storage space with 2 oversized walk-in closets?!) so if you like what you see, email me for details on more clothes. If you really like what you see, I can put together a discounted bulk lot for you. Not my size? Many of the clothes I'm selling are too small or too big for me, so check it out. And, to sweeten the deal, you'll get an additional $20 off your $50+ purchase (!!!) through this link . It's good for my clothes and clothes from my competition other sellers. Did I mention everything includes FREE shipping? Like this prom dress? It's for sale! Like this Shabby Apple Waimea dress? It's for sale! Like my Mad M...

You know those children's books that don't have any words? A favorite of mine was always Pancakes for Breakfast  by Tomie DePaola. I did a little baking yesterday and decided to create a wordless Chocolate Chip Cookie Cupcakes recipe. You can totally figure out how to make this recipe, even without any words. Cupcakes for breakfast, anyone?    

I recently discovered bucketlist.net and have been compiling a list of everything I hope to do in my lifetime. Some of my goals require planning, like finally finishing my novel, seeing Britney Spears perform in Las Vegas, and building our dream home. Others are easier to cross off, like flying a kite with my Sexy Nerd. I'd like you-know-who to write his own list and he probably would have if I hadn't mentioned it. He's so stubborn. Bucketlist.net is great because it lets you see what other users have written, which can be a great source of inspiration, as well as amusement. Amusement, I say? Here are some of the errr...unique bucket list goals I've come across: 1. Wrestle a bear. 2. Beat a woman in an argument. 3. Prove everyone they were wrong about me. (Let's hope they weren't doubting the bucket lister's grasp on English...which, admittedly, is quite the bold insult considering I used the "word" lister in the same sentence. Lister??) ...
