The past few months, I've been making a lot of jokes (based in reality) of "I'm not doing that, I'm thirty!" and it's actually been pretty reflective about what I've been saying yes to (for maybe too long) and what I'm allowing myself to say no to. Sometimes it's...
An Uncustomary Babe requested a post of ways to embrace your inner child. I thought about it for a little and wondered how this list would ultimately be different from my suggestions of ways to play. After talking about it a bit, I realized the important distinction...
It's been way too long since we did a round of the Snail Mail Game Show. Back around Thanksgiving, the mail I was sending out from my front door was getting stolen and it seemed that no one received their envelope for Round 16, and I never followed up on it with...
An unusual holiday I get to personally celebrate now that I have one in my life/house, is Black Cat Appreciation Day! It falls every August 17th, and it's actually a really important holiday! I've seen varying research on whether or not the numbers are reliable, but...

Hey! It's 8-8-18! Nothing is impossible today! I read that somewhere. About this date specifically. I have an abnormal amount of eights on my astrological birth chart. It's a lot. Just throwing that out there with no attempt to integrate it in a way that makes sense....
Adventure is a very unique, individualized thing. It basically means something we do that's out of our normal routine, but is actually exciting! That doesn't mean it necessarily gets your adrenaline pumping every time or that it's a risky behavior. Everyone's...
