I’m not really friends with anyone I’ve seriously dated for … reasons. Bogart, on the other hand, is pretty good friends with his ex. As someone with relatively little adult relationship experience, facing down someone else’s six-year history can be terrifying a smidge daunting at times. I’ve never committed to anything for six years, let alone paid it frequent visits…… Continue reading The Ex Files
Someone asked me the other day if I am good at firing people from my life. I am not. In fact, one of my ‘talents’ is my ability to stay in touch with people where others might eventually drift away. However, lately I’ve been feeling a bit overwhelmed when it comes to keeping up with…… Continue reading Fired up

We…… Continue reading Choose your choices

After an amazing trip to NYC with some truly awesome hosts (thanks again, lovelies!), I hopped on the bus Friday evening to head back to the T-dot. A bit of a vacation hangover (not a literal one, since I barely drank there … I didn’t want to cheat on the stoop) made this entry a…… Continue reading The way back
