U-G-L-Y! You ain’t got no alibi! You ugly! Hey, hey, you ugly! I’m singing this song to myself. Well, to my inner self. Although, I do have a possible pinkeye situation going on so either way. Today I want to talk about something that plagues almost every woman I know. Jealousy. These are the thoughts…

Take Your Shirt Off!
I have a secret. I don’t always hop out of bed singing Praise and Worship songs. Sometimes all I want to do is pull the covers up over my head and sleep til Jesus returns. When I see people wearing those “Life is Good” t-shirts, I have a less than holy urge to challenge them….
Wanted
I found out yesterday why people say “banging on the door like the po-lice”. The cops are after me. Well, just one. I heard obnoxiously loud knocking at the door yesterday morning and opened it to find the Sheriff standing there. He mispronounced my name and handed me a summons to appear in court. The…
Just Another Angry Rant
If you make a pregnant, unwed mother cry, you’re doing it wrong. There is a “pastor” who comes into to the restaurant I work in and makes all of the employees uncomfortable. A couple years ago he told a pregnant server she needed to marry the baby’s father immediately so the child wouldn’t be born…
My First First Love
I have always loved stories. As a kid, wearing Osh Kosh B’ Gosh, I loved nothing more than trips to the library where I could check out 37 books at a time. I would run my fingers lightly over the plastic-covered spines and try to choose the best ones based solely on title. My favorites…

Em-Burrusing
Buttermilk fried chicken. Truffle fries. Calamari. Fried Green Tomatoes. Bacon-Wrapped Shrimp Crepes. Coconut Cream Pie. Loaded Nachos. Steak Caesar sandwich. Three restaurants in two days. I can explain! Saturday Ash Cap and I went to Homemades By Suzanne to get a delicious, down-home lunch one last time before she moves to Africa. Saturday night my…
Friday Favorites and a Giveaway!
When my best friend Julie started talking to me about Essential Oils, I was skeptical to say the least. She claimed they worked for headaches, colds, nausea, indigestion, that time of the month, sleeplessness, hot flashes, kidney stones, and basically anything that wasn’t a severed limb. The DoTerra oils were also Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade,…
Gratefulness: One Girl’s Response to Anxiety
Things I am grateful for today: 1.Coming up with a post about gratefulness when what I really wanted to write about was how the whole no sex before marriage thing ruins my dating life. 2. The acceptability of yoga pants in public. Every now and then, it’s nice to be super cash. Yoga pants and…
Unforgettable
What has God forgotten to do in your life? There must be something. Are you waiting to get married, get pregnant, get a promotion, win the lottery, or get your adopted kids from the Congo? What is the prayer, the one desire that causes a little ache in your heart whenever you think about it?…
