My Favorite Things

becky | January 31, 2009

Oprah I am not.  But I am Princess Mikkimoto dammit and I have some of my favorite things that I want to share with the world.  Or at least the 10 people who read this blog.  Unlike Oprah, I won’t be mailing all of these treasures to your home.  Sorry, that’s not in the budget.  [...]

Losing My Mind, One Day At A Time

becky | January 29, 2009

As I have mentioned before, I work with just one other guy.  Josh.  Being the overly social person that I am, at first this was a big transition from my previous job where it seemed they paid me to talk to my vast amount of friends all over the office building.   Huh.  And yet I [...]

Laundry Dancing

becky | January 26, 2009

One of the things we gave up when we moved was the washer/dryer in our unit.  Now we have coin operated laundry in the basement. Yesterday the mountains of laundry got so high that even Ben said, “Let’s do laundry today!” with the excitement of a boy with a new puppy. Since I knew this passion [...]

The Cookie Knows

becky | January 22, 2009

Last night, after eating some heavenly Chinese food, I was eager to break into my fortune cookie.  Not only because I love me some fortune cookies, but because these past couple weeks have been so stressful, I needed some guidance.  And if that guidance has to come from flour and sugar folded up like a [...]

Moved

becky | January 19, 2009

Hello from the other side! Holy Mother of Everything Good and Great…. it’s done! My parents (who were a ridiculously huge help.  Thank you again, Folks!) and I survived.  Barely but we did.  Friends, let my pain be a lesson to you.  If you can at all help it, do not move in the dead of [...]

Out With The Old, In With The Cold

becky | January 15, 2009

Did you know I’m moving?  I know I barely talk about it.  It’s not like every single Facebook status for the past week has been me bitching about packing and moving.  I’m so subtle.  I hate to complain.  So it’s easy to forget that I’m moving.  But I am! For some reason, when I moved into [...]
