Since I have not blogged since April...thought I would add something of substance...or at least an update on me.

This has been a strange summer. Never before in my life have I devoted so much time to planning my future. I find myself consumed with thoughts of improvement. I have lots of crazy ideas (everything from starting an restaurant to running off to Italy), and some down to earth goals (returning to school, refinancing my house). I think it comes from the poor economy, coupled with... read more

I read an article in a magazine, which included a long list of things that usually end relationships. I am sure you can guess at most of them, lying, cheating, stealing money. It started my thought process about how relationships begin, and end. What are my DEALBREAKERS?

4. I have great taste in men! (hee-hee)

If calories weren't an issue, I'd eat these for the rest of my life...

1. Sin-on-a-stick

I just posted this on Helium.com, and thought it would be cool to share here too. This is a true story...

I am a recent home owner. I purchased my house a few years ago, by myself, with much scrimping and saving. Just this past year, my boyfriend and I took a big step forward, and decided to move in together.
