Happy Wednesday, loves! Today, I'm driving up to Pittsburgh for three reasons: 1) To see the panel my old co-workers and I submitted to the Knit The Bridge project 2) See Bonnie Jeanne (aka Post Muse) 3) See my great aunt. It's a bit of a drive, but I'm excited! I...
Lately, I've been hearing a lot of people say things about summer being over. Guess what, though? It's not! Just because the kids go back to school doesn't mean we can't have a picnic or jump on a trampoline. In the US, Autumn doesn't start until September 22nd. If...
One of the best parts of street art is interacting with your environment. I really admire artists who are inspired by what already exists and add their own spin to it. It's not as easy for me to do, so I get excited when I can make a statue a little more fancy....
On the first day of every month, I compile a list of my Top Ten Things about the previous month. I also ask for my friends' lists, and it's wonderful to read them. Reflecting on your life in a positive way is an extremely good skill to have, and if you can't do it...

You know that commercial where the camel walks around the office wishing every a "Happy Hump Day"? It may be cheesy, but I can promise you that I would do the exact same thing if I was a camel. Unfortunately, I'm not a camel, so me saying it is less cool. The good...
Two of the biggest parts of who I am come from my past experiences and my sources of inspiration. Obviously, past experiences shape us into the person we currently are, but sometimes we forget about those external factors that encourage us to evolve. Sometimes my...
I got my first penpal when I was 10 years old. I went to my friend's birthday sleepover, and there was one girl that only the birthday girl knew. Her name was Amanda and she was immediately considered "cool" by everyone for whatever reason. I really connected with...
Every month I will be posting a playlist for your use and enjoyment. Right now I'm on a 90s kick. To be fair, I'm always on a 90s kick, but it's pretty serious right now. So lounge with your cat, write a letter, or do your stretching routine to this unapologetically...
