I'm officially all grown up.
Eron and I met with Lynette Chapman, our new realtor, this evening. Yes, I said realtor. We’re going to buy a house.
That’s big. Just in case you weren’t aware.
Reasons why we are making this move:
Our monthly house payments will be the same or less than our current rent. We live in a swanky apartment, but it’s just an apartment.
We will have something that our...
1 Year Later
We had a fun-filled weekend for our anniversary. The year has flown by in a lot of respects. It’s been hard, lovely, wonderful, and worth all of the stresses that life throws our way. We have each other. And that’s what matters.
Our wedding was simple. A 10 minute cermony follwed by barbeque and beer. Friends and family.
I still love what the judge said during our wedding. “Now...
More nonsense
Eron and I have both greatly improved in the hair department since meeting. He had long-ass hair that he straightened every morning. Mine was mullet-esque. The mullet part was not my fault. Hair dresser went ape-shit on my head.

I think the new arena looks real cool. And I hope it’s succesful. I’m still curious as to if they will be able to pack the house or not, but come on. There are multiple places to drink. And it’s big and shiny and new. How could I not be excited? I can be excited and pessimistic all at the same time, right?
What makes a Friday not feel like Friday?

Birthdays
So, I really don’t like birthdays. I’m actually quite weird about it. I want people to do nice things for me (get hurt when they don’t) but when they do, I’m not exactly enthusiastic.
My grandmother passed away a few days before my 7th birthday. Her funeral was on my birthday. The next 10 birthdays or so, my mom was pretty sad on my birthday. No happy memories there.

Joyandet said the girl would be flown back to France on Wednesday night and put in a Paris hospital upon arrival. “She is physically out of danger, she is evidently very traumatized,” he said.
1. I can only begin to imagine the psychological effects of being the only person to survive a plane crash. How will that change this 14-year-old’s life?
2. How do they think they are going...
