I have purchased 3 different handbags over the last couple of months that I have been MIA. Let's just say...it was my way of dealing with issues that were less-than-favorable, in both my personal and professional life ( Read more... )

I can tell when Sophie has good dreams: she wags her tail in a dream-like state, like she's in slow-motion.

One night, I fell asleep while watching Criminal Minds. Subsequently, I had this dream where many (not all -- give me a little credit here) of my ex-boyfriends guys-I-dated-and-ended-up-hating-and-writing-about-so-as-to-document-my-experience-only-to-repeat-my-mistakes-later-on, decided to go over to my mom's house and SPEND THE NIGHT in my old ( Read more... )
