So yesterday morning, Zoe had her two-week following up appointment at the vet’s office. None of the 3 of us wanted to be there, but I think Zoe may have wanted to be there the least. Jay had her on his lap since I was all dressed up purdy for work event. First from hiding […]

Goodbye, Chair.
Today is my last day at my current job. I’ve never spoken very much about my job over the past 3 years. I never really felt that broadcasting what I do for money is something that the world needed to know nor do I want to risk saying something that could cost me my job. […]

I guess now is as good of a time as any to announce that my last day at my current job is July 6. Beginning July 16, I will be working for the Wake County Bar Association. The reason for the week in between is because I’m going to San Diego Comic Con July 10-15. […]

I have a rant that I need to get it off my chest. People. Are. So. Damn. Rude. I spend a lot of my days on the phone with a variety of different people. I would say that literally 75% of the people I talk with on the phone each day will hang up the phone call […]

So I experienced my first earthquake today and I didn’t even have to go all the way to Comic Con to do so. My experience wasn’t all that exciting but I am kinda excited that I felt my first earthquake so I figured I’d write it down here for posterity. Someday, my grandkids can read […]

I’m delayed at BWI right now (Baltimore’s airport) so I figured I’d share with everyone some pictures from my office’s Christmas lunch today. Everyone brought in a dish. My coworker Patty made awesome kilbasa (spelling?). Oh man, I wasn’t hungry at all but I ate a TON of it. We also had HoneyBaked Ham, green […]

It’s been a while since I’ve had a Dumb Colleen story. Last night, I had a fantastic time at my company’s holiday party, btw. I don’t think anyone had less than 3 glasses of whatever their drink of choice was. I told my parents about it when I got home and their response was, “Yeah. […]

I heard this wonderfully gross story at work on Monday night. It was the perfect cure to stop eating so freaking many M&M’s instead of dinner. Kallie, a high school senior, told me it: A girl she used to work with had a pet snake. She used to sleep with this snake each night because […]

Another Labor Day weekend has come and gone. Jay came up to NY again, just like last year, but this year, we stayed at my aunt’s house on Long Island. It actually totally rocked because she’s in Key West (hello and goodbye, Gustav) til next Monday, so we got to play house for a few […]
