A Jilted Bride Update
It’s been one year, four months and thirteen days since he broke it off and I’m still reeling. Not on the bedroom floor crying (anymore) – thank God – just obsessively thinking about him and his new girlfriend/lady in his life (I’m not sure what she really is and I’m too scared to ask). To … Continue reading A Jilted Bride Update
When a man doesn’t drive you home. A dealbreaker? Hell yes!
Now this has happened twice to me in the last year. But even the second time I feel hella good doing it/not standing for it. And that is odd for me because sometimes I can get down on myself instead.

King Joffrey on Celebrity Culture
This is fairly embarrassing for me to admit but no more than putting myself out there with my book will be, so what the hell. My last period of depression (not really sure how else to describe it) was accompanied by a strange desire to be famous and envy of today's celebrities. Not just any … Continue reading King Joffrey on Celebrity Culture
Where Have I Been?
Well its been awhile. Okay its been a long time. Months. Eight months to be exact. Anyone following this blog is probably wondering what the hell?
