“It’s Just Not the Right Time.”

Okay, I’m going to go a little Carrie Bradshaw on you fabulous unwind readers. Lately I’ve been reflecting on a string of similar issues in the dating lives of my friends.  These are girls and guys who are in the 18 to 26 age range. (Because who would ever write about their own dating experiences […]

Can you read me now?

If you know me at all, you know I’m not a technology snob. My television is about 18 years old (seriously), I don’t have a Wii, my only iPod is a shuffle (and it was a gift), and I still can’t really comprehend how TiVo works. So it’s understandably not my style to judge people […]

Happy Fake, Construction Paper Heart Day

What?  What about my title?? I’m sorry, I just don’t like Valentine’s Day.  Maybe it’s because I never felt I got enough Valograms in high school, or maybe it’s because 99% of the Valentine’s Days I’ve experienced have been either A) depressingly lonely or B) depressingly awful.  (I won’t go into the details, but I’ve […]

Nobody’s Pinocchio

For the most part, I consider myself to be a responsible human being.  I feed myself, I clothe myself, I pay my bills on time (save for one forgetful incident 2 years ago that will forever mar my otherwise perfect credit score), and I exist in the general population with relative ease and appropriateness. However. […]

Love is Blinding

Perhaps you’ve seen my rants about my absence of motivation, direction, life goals and general grown up-ness that have plagued my entire existence.  And true, all these less than redeeming qualities have been a part of my life since I was an itty bitty fetus…but there’s another more immediate cause that I’ve thus far been […]

Laziness vs. Love

I’m in this class called Sociology of Family (YES I’m a journalism student and YES I’m being forced to take a Soc class against my will…but I digress), and recently we’ve been talking about the dissolution of traditional values in the American family structure. In layman’s terms, the divorce rate in the US is silly-crazy-high. […]

Too Much Information

I was relaxing with friends a few Sundays ago, having brunch at a charming out-of-town restaurant. We were enjoying our piping hot coffee and delicious eggs benedict, and we were of course enjoying each other’s company…but more than anything we were enjoying the restaurant staff. Oh wait, did I forget to mention?  This restaurant was […]

Fear Factor

It occurred to me recently that, since my jaunt into adulthood, I’ve developed several phobias that rear their yellow-bellied heads on an increasingly regular basis. 1.     Fear of heights.  This one is evidenced in my post about the state fair, as well as countless other occurrences in which tall places and myself came face to […]

Quit Playing Games with My Heart

So I went on a date the other day…a second date, to be exact…and we were sitting on the patio at Benvenuti’s. (10 points to my date, who we’ll call “Hunter,” for choosing one of Norman’s most fabulous restaurants.)   Conversation was flowing freely, as was the wine, and we were laughing and having one of […]

Facebook Stalking=Deadly Dating Disease

School has started up once more, and that can only mean a notable spike in Facebook stalking…you have new friends whose pictures require hours of perusing, plus there’s no better way to avoid homework than to reread your wall-to-walls with thirty-two of your very closest friends.  I’m not judging.  I did it myself last night. […]
