In Memory of Lizzie Freeman, who always made me smile with her silly giggles

I recently heard that the world has lost an inspirational soul… a girl I’ve known since 7th grade, who was vibrant, luminous, cheerful, uplifting and a genuine sweetheart.
Elizabeth E. Freeman and I had lost touch over time, but for two or three fun-filled years way back when, she lit up my life with excitement and [...]

Golf balls on the side, please.

Ahhhh… lunch with Dad at Moose’s Tooth…
Server: “What can I get you to drink?”
Dad: “I’ll have the, uh, PGA.”

Good friends tell you the truth you don’t want to hear.

Cleaning out my closet the other day = reality check. I finally went through my 5,007 tshirts and vowed to throw some away.
You know how (maybe it’s just me…) when you clean out your closet, instead of throwing stuff out you end up being all, “HEY! I forgot I had this! I’ll just put it [...]

I refuse to believe it… Champagne can’t be evil!

At the dentist this morning my hygienist commented that I obviously practice “excellent” home care… and then she told me I have 3 cavities. WTF? Apparently my mouth has low ph? Gah. Anyway this was my brief conversation:
Hygienist: “Jenny, do you have any specific drinks you consume a lot, like every day, you know like [...]

“Bad Timing” by my innocent-ish friend Sam

So, I decided it would probably be okay (read: not too embarrassing) to let my girls Jen and Sam tag along with me today to look at a house with my realtor Kevin, who is also Adam’s uncle.
My only expectation? Don’t embarrass me. (This is pretty much my only expectation ever, but I always expect [...]

A Valentine’s Day for the Girlies

Happy Valentine’s Day to everyone who did not experience my expert “wooing” last night! Since I think girls appreciate the silly romantic bullcrap more than boys do anyway, I decided to invite two of my lovely girlfriends over to be my Valentines.
Sam and Nancy were the lucky girlies I chose to shower with love last [...]

Word to the Wise

From the un-wise.
Don’t talk on the phone while checking in at the airport using that e-check-in thingy.
And definitely don’t accidentally push the button for “yes, I am carrying multiple knives, ulus and cutting things, as well as flammable explosives” because you’re on the phone talking to your friend about your recent heavenly Sephora shopping experience.
And [...]
