After Laura did a guest post, I knew it was only a matter of time before I got Marie on board… She’s my other sister, the youngest of the hippie clan (the one my mom lovingly tattooed with sunscreen in Maui). Although she has been spending the summer “studying,” don’t feel TOO bad for her. She’s about to enter her senior year in college. Oh, and did I mention, she lives ON the beach. Literally. Rough life. Those were the days… Anyways, without further ado, Marie, take it away! Seeing as how we are a… Read more >

You guys are SO hilarious! I love that so many people noticed and commented on the lack of hummus (gasp) in my previous post, I literally laughed out loud. Apparently I have a trademark that I wasn’t aware of until now. Well, if it helps you sleep at night, I made up for it with a crap load of chickpea love today 🙂 The plum/melon fruit platter (above) was my dessert last night, btw. I thought I’d try and get to bed EXTRA early since I have been having MAYJ sleep issues. For reals. This… Read more >

Remember back in the day when Facebook was new and cool and only for nerds college kids? Those were the good ‘ol days…now it’s open to everyone and their mother. And I mean that literally. Parents on a “social networking” site is just awkward. I’m sorry if it seems harsh, but I think all kids with mid-life-crisis-prone parents need to sit them down and explain to them what’s up. If we don’t stand strong now and prevent this from progressing, next thing you know you’ll be accepting “friend” requests from your college professors, or worse,… Read more >

You guys are so sweet for sending me happy-sleepy-time thoughts…I wish I could say it worked :( After my seriously deficient shut-eye on Monday night, I was SO optimistic about getting to sleep extra early…I was all tucked in by 10 pm, ready to snooze the night away. With my alarm set for 5 am, I thought 7 hours would be decent enough to get me through my first day back at work. Talk about wishful thinking!! I fell right asleep, only to wake up at 11:00 confused as all hell. Only an HOUR passed!?! Grrrr… … Read more >

Talk about karma. Sleeping in ‘til noon yesterday backfired hard core last night! Neither Kyle nor I could fall asleep, and as we watched the hours on the clock tick by, we finally decided enough was enough…so we got back up at 2 am and watched some tv. Sleep FAIL. At 4 am I still wasn’t tired, but I forced myself back to bed…Kyle fell asleep (lucky ^%$) while I tossed and turned until 6 am. Fortunately, I had the presence of mind to set my alarm, so instead of sleeping ‘til noon again, I… Read more >
