latchkey kid I was a latchkey kid growing up. My mom was working and going to school. So I was home alone for at least an hour or two in the afternoon. And I loved it. Almost immediately after school I would head to the neighborhood convenience store. I'd buy candy and snack cakes, then eagerly head home to watch afternoon cartoons. I had a routine....

America's Team. Really? When I was growing up Baltimore didn't have a football team. Most would assume that I would look down the road to DC for a team to cheer for, but no. I looked all over the league and decided to become a Cowboys fan. (I was 12 and thought Troy Aikman was cute.) I dropped my Dallas Star for a Baltimore Raven in '96. But there's still a soft...

The Art of Bridal War Sun Tzu says: Attack him where he is unprepared, appear where you are not expected. The Wannabe Bride says: Engage him in conversations about marriage when he least expects it. Boyfriend: Honey? Can you get me some toilet paper? You: Sure, if you give me a ring. Sun Tzu says: Hence to fight and conquer in all your battles is not...

Not the Mama! It's not that I'm anti-baby. I'm just anti-me-having-a-baby. I remember when I was younger I would play with my cabbage patch doll Kristie Mae or Kelly Ann or whatever the heck her name was. I would dress her up in little outfits and do her hair. I had a stroller to cart her around in and we even had matching rain slickers. It was fun for...

Viagra Penguin I LOVE Penguins. Penguins were my sorority mascot. Since graduation, 6 years ago, I haven't participated in any sorority stuff. But I still love penguins. They're so cute and adorable. How could you not love them? Anyone who knows me, knows my fascination with everything penguin. There is at lease 1 penguin in every room of our...

As I lay here in bed feeling sick, I realized that it’d been awhile since my last post. So here’s what’s been happening:

Jay and I hosted both sides of our family for Thanksgiving. Everything went well despite Jay getting a little to friendly with a bottle of whipped vodka. Later he told me it was my fault for making drinks taste so good. Can’t say I can argue with him there.

I was hoping that my pumpkin infused vodka would make an appearance. But sadly it was not as flavorful as I hoped it to be. So I’ve added more cinnamon and nutmeg. Hopefully it’ll be ready by Christmas.

I’ve also managed to somehow lose 6 pounds in the last 2 weeks. I’ve gone back to weight watchers, like many do this time of year. Hears hoping I can get back to size I was when I met Jay.

That’s about it. Things here have been pretty slow, though the calendar seems to be flying by.

I’m going to pop some more day-quil and get some more rest. I have a ravens game to head to later. Can’t miss that.
