I've been curious since this song came out... but then again, where does Gwen Stefani get ANY of her lyrics from? From the tone of the song, all I DO know is that I don't want to be a "hollaback girl" whatever it is ( Read more... )

I have a few minutes before meeting Miss Liz/Beth Hackman for coffee, so I thought I'd let anyone who "lurks" read what's going on;) What have I been doing ( Read more... )

I got out early from work today because I had already put in my alloted time for the HR department. (I wish I were working three days in HR and two days doing technical writing, but there's not much I can do now.) I thought I'd take some time to update even though I did pretty recently ( Read more... )

What's new? Good question! Not much... same old, same old. Work. Family. Friends. Lots of family stuff, but I won't get into all of that here ( Read more... )

Another week, another weekend. There's family, there's friends, and there's work. I'm trying to settle into being home... permanently. Liz (a.k.a. "Beth") Hackman and I hung out on Tuesday night last week. We have decided that we will not become like those little old ladies who have nothing better to do than roam the South Mall until it closes. We ( Read more... )

So this is what it's like to be an adult? (I use that term loosely:D) I spent the past week driving to and from Harrisburg (no, not Harrisonburg).

Wow, that was fun;) Getting up at 5:30am, ( Read more... )

Wow! I now have something that no one can take away from me: a Bachelor of Arts in English. :D I am officially a college graduate! The last few days in the Burg were kind of a blur. I hung out with my housemates, Karen, and other friends. Packed my room like crazy. Got very little sleep. It was great ( Read more... )

Wow. Four years. Time flies. I do not have the time, nor the emotional energy to write about how much all of the amazing friends I have here in Harrisonburg have meant to me over the past four years, how much I have grown, the fun experiences I've had. Maybe when I'm home and have a week off before work starts I will have the time to be all ( Read more... )

So I'm a few hours away from my last weekend here at JMU ending. (I don't really count next weekend. Graduation, family time, packing up the room. Not a "real" weekend ( Read more... )
