More from Memory Lane…

… Or Embarrassment Boulevard. (Depends on which direction you’re coming from.)

This was me circa 5th grade, with my dog, Samson.
My hair is naturally straight, but I was set on getting a perm. When my hairdresser asked me what kind of curls I wanted, I said I wanted to look like Mariah Carey, a la [...]

Dancin’ queen, young and sweet, only…twenty-fo– dammit.

This entry was going to be about how cool I was to take some master classes from Mia Michaels, of So You Think You Can Dance fame. Then I couldn’t find any impressive dance pictures, only embarrassing ones. I’m much better at self-deprecation, so. There you go.
Although you might not guess it from my contant [...]

On the Way to Dinner Last Night…

Jenn: OHMYGAH. Damon. I had a dream last night that I was playing THE SIMS 2, and somehow, I became A PART of the game, and the next thing I know, I am flying through SPACE, in a SPACESHIP.  With TOM CRUISE.
Damon: You’re a nerd.
Jenn: Right.   ….What does your t-shirt say, again?
Damon: B.O.S.
Jenn: …and what [...]

When You Are Enchanted by Sedaris

The Girls and I decided to start a book club, which we’ve called “The Lady Literates,” because we’re fuckin’ ladies.

I adore [...]

Tag, You’re Old.

Have you checked out some of my “tagged” pictures on a certain social networking site?
Oh. There are some gems.

Fort Lauderdale. Spring Break 2003. The US had just gone to war with Iraq. We don’t look too concerned.

Panama City. Spring Break 2001. Blondie McBlonderson.

Lavende, for Your Garden?

O Hai.
Let’s forget that I haven’t updated you on my life’s happy haps for the past 420933 days.
OOH LOOK, SHINY PICTURES!!
These were from the Lavender Festival in Mooresville, Indiana at Willowfield Lavender Farm. I got that Girl-With-Camera feeling and set out for something inexpensive and relaxing to shoot. And then I found myself lens-deep in [...]

… Know what’s creepy?

When, due to storms, your satellite is out,and so you figure you’d watch a recorded ep of Wipeout, or Jon and Kate, or maybe that episode of Throwdown with Bobby Flay featuring your favorite blogger, Amalah,but your DVR is on the fritz, and you don’t even like that turn of phrase, but that’s just how [...]

You Spin Me Right Round

(I should warn you there are parts of this that are not for the weak stomach. I mean, it’s not that bad, but I should throw it out there….I realize that’s like when Perez Hilton does that “If you are easily offended, DO NOT CLICK HERE.”)
So. Last night I fell asleep around midnight.  Damon was [...]
