Godzilla and My Popular Blog

For the past several weeks, I have seen a soaring in the number of hits that my blog has gotten. I went from averaging about 40-50 hits a day to over 150 a day - consistently. It was outrageous.  As the self-proclaimer that I am, I spread the word to everyone I knew [...]

Disney World and the Ivy League

This weekend is Yale’s Commencement weekend.  Aside from weddings, Chris, and s’mores, graduations are just about my most favorite thing in the world.  I love them.  All those people there to celebrate the hard work that people have put into their degrees - just makes me happy inside.  And it makes me cry.  I’m a [...]

Pass the Cheese, Please!

Last weekend we had a huge BBQ at our house to celebrate the end of the year with Chris’ classmates. Lots of people. Lots of beer. Lots of meat. Lots of fun.

Tonight as I was going through our fridge trying to find something for dinner, I came across [...]

Landlords

Maybe its because we’re so close to owning our own home. Maybe its because I’m home dying from a cold. Maybe its because I don’t want to clean my house. For whatever reason, I have decided today, actually about 5 minutes ago, that I do not like my landlords. Sure, they’re [...]

Home is Where the Dogs Live

Well, Dear Readers, here it is. Our house. Our cute, little, cape cod house in Connecticut. Isn’t it just the most adorable thing in the world? It’s like a little piece of heaven in Stratford, CT. Its a great house, but I had no idea how much you had to [...]
