One of my goals before I turn 26 was to eat vegetarian for a week. I've never gone without meat for that long, and I thought it would be an interesting challenge. I figured if I could go without Facebook for a week and drink only water for a week, I could do this! For...
If you were to look at the last twenty-five years of my life, you'd see many parallels with my interests and activities. I've always loved balloons, the color yellow, and glitter. I've always enjoyed picking out pumpkins, looking at carnival lights, and watching The...
In honor of my favorite day of the year (October being my favorite month, and 17 being my favorite number), I'm posting twice! I recently re-discovered a bunch of files on my laptop because I finally got Microsoft Office back. One of these files was a graph I made...
I didn't discover limericks till rather late in life. I imagine that if I had figured out how to write them before I was 22, my childhood journals would be full of more rhymes, but I didn't. It wasn't until a work happy hour to celebrate St. Patrick's Day, that I...
Happy Dictionary Day! Care to share what your favorite word is? I like the meaning of "magic" and the acoustics of "serendipity". Recently, I've been getting a lot of e-mails from people sharing how much they enjoy my Weekly Happiness posts. I'm really glad to hear...

Back in August, Michelle posted some video footage she took from her car while on a trip. I felt really calm and thoughtful after watching it, and I decided to do it myself. My video is of Baltimore streets at night; it's what I see as I exit the city to go home. I...

I've seen the movie, Midnight In Paris, a few times, and I always become very introspective after I've watched it. A theme of the movie is that everyone has their idea of what the "golden age" was. Present day people might think the 1920s were the golden age, but the...
I really love collaborating on art projects, so when a joint yarnbomb with Candace was proposed, I was all in! We each knitted some long strips in various Halloween colors, and when I met up with her and Utah, we sewed them together! The plan was to wrap up her lamp...
