"Fat People are Unhealthy"
I can't stand Tess Holiday in general but she's right about one thing at least. I have like no patience for random keyboard warriors (and rude people IRL in general) who wanna act like they're concerned with the health of strangers just because they're fat. I have a muscled up boyfriend who smokes and will eat 2 Baconators, ghost pepper fries, a ( Read more... ) -
Gyaru Thoughts
I was looking at old photos and now I'm missing my gyaru-influenced style. I think I'll go back to it. Onee-kei suits me. It's safe for work as well. So why not?! Also, I can't see Rob complaining about me looking fabulous every day instead of just on Saturday nights lol. In seriousness, I think just making sure I really do my eyes every day will ( Read more... ) -

Snail Mail Revolution
Oh my cheese and grits! I have been sending snail mail like crazy. It’s been so therapeutic and fun and just awesome all around. I have some of the best pen-pals - many of whom are old friends who’ve moved away. Some are even people I see every few months but we never have the time - or alone time - to call one another. The life of a mama is a ( Read more... ) -
When is Enough Money Enough?
I just read about the highest paid female executive in the US, Angela Ahrendts (of Apple). As much as I am happy to see a woman in a top level position, paving the way for little girls with big dreams, that salary makes me sad. I, with all my heart, don’t believe anyone should be making that kind of money. It’s just excessive.
