I’m looking for a one bedroom apartment in Philadelphia. I’ve found that apartment hunting is much like dating…you have to kiss a lot of frogs to discover the prince. The difference–commitment. The apartment and I will be in a relationship for at least a year. I’m ready, willing and able to move. I’m hoping toContinue reading “Apartment hunting…”

A tale of two cities
Last night was one of the more interesting nights of my life. I had two parties to attend: one here in Woodbury (or close enough) and one in Philly. The one in Woodbury-ish consisted of people from my high school. Apparently once a year, we’re all going to start getting together at the closest thingContinue reading “A tale of two cities”
St Patty’s Whirlwind
I am amazed at my dedication to celebrating a holiday I’ve never acknowledged before. I usually live a pretty boring life. Work. Consulting. Gym. Little leage baseball. Tanning. Reading. Blogging. Occasionally I go out with my friends. Usually once every two weeks or so. I like to pace myself. This weekend, I filled myContinue reading “St Patty’s Whirlwind”
Dichotomy
Last night, on my way into the city, I stopped at Wawa for some money. As I was walking into the store, I noticed minivans and small SUV’s driven by men and women, tired from a long day of carting their kids to and fro. I, on the other hand, was dressed, preparing for aContinue reading “Dichotomy”
Ambiguity
I’m in an ambigous place right now. I love my life. My job(s) are going really well. I’ve adjusted to the dental industry–specifically in a dental office–fairly well. Sometimes it still doesn’t feel like a real job. I love the consultation part of my life. Planning, executing and seeing the end results are veryContinue reading “Ambiguity”
Am I Lovely?
There is a voice that is within every woman that asks, “Am I lovely?” After 33 years of research, I believe that question arises almost as soon as a female baby enters the world. Every woman I know seeks an answer to that question, whether it is conscious or subconscious. When I was a kid,Continue reading “Am I Lovely?”
Gym observations
I’m such a conflicted woman. I can’t keep up with myself. Tonight I drew the short straw at the gym. I like to get a treadmill that faces the huge television that usually has ESPN playing. All of those treadmills were taken, so I found myself sweating the pounds off with a view of theContinue reading “Gym observations”
Set-ups make me nervous
People must be getting worried about me, being so old and single and all. A few months ago, I wrote about my friend trying to match me with a friend of hers. It ended poorly because I was nervous and she got her feelings hurt after reading my take on being set up. Tonight,Continue reading “Set-ups make me nervous”
What I learned this weekend
This weekend, as I was dying of a head cold (thanks new friends and co-workers…haha) I read For Women Only by Shaunti Feldhahn. Some of what I read was pretty common-sense. I’ve lived with my father for a long time, and I’ve worked with quite a few men over the years. The author’s goal wasContinue reading “What I learned this weekend”
Hey guy
The other day, I was watching previews for this season’s Biggest Loser. This season, there are two girls who are well over 200 lbs who were once models. The one girl was weeping about how no guy had asked her for her number in three years. I rolled my eyes compassionately. Then, a few nightsContinue reading “Hey guy”
