Damn y'all, I've got a lot of goals for 2020. And it's already almost a quarter over with. I like to travel. I don't love flying, and there comes a point where I'm done being out in the world and just want to be home in my sweats, but my wanderlust is a pretty well-established... Continue Reading →
Hey… remember me?
Oh hi. I've been gone for awhile. After my uncle died I went into a bit of a funk. And by funk I mean full-fledged depression. It wasn't all related to his death; I found a new doctor in Albany and we've been messing with my meds a bit, plus the change in weather, the... Continue Reading →
It’s wedding week!
Like I mentioned last night, I'm in Florida. My best friend/wife for life is getting married this weekend, and I'm here to help her do tasks and not panic. I arrived Monday afternoon and so far, so good. If you're interested in seeing random photos from my travels with mildly entertaining captions, follow me on... Continue Reading →
Travel hair and skin care
I've been home from my most recent round of travels for a few days and I'm already packing to leave town again. This time I'm going home for the holidays; Christmas is something I look forward to all year, but Dan has to come back to Albany before the actual holiday and that sucks. Anyway,...

Travel makeup
It's been almost a year since I started traveling in a mildly insane manner. Boston, Michigan, various cities in Florida multiple times, Rochester, Albany, and now Roanoke, Virginia. Dan is here doing some kind of airplane training, and since there's really no need for me to be home, I met him here after my weekend... Continue Reading →
Family fun time in Ft. Lauderdale
My stepdad turned 60 over the weekend. His birthday conveniently coincided not only with his favorite football team, the Buffalo Bills, taking on their longtime rivals, the Miami Dolphins, in Miami, but the resort where my sweet, adorable cousin works in Fort Lauderdale was also hosting a Buffalo Bills-themed weekend, complete with game tickets, transportation,...

A mountain wedding, brain lip balm, and a lamentation
Hello internet friends! Did you miss me? It's been quite a week. Last weekend my wonderful, beautiful friend Alisha got married in the Adirondacks. It was as cold as... something really cold... but it was beautiful and fun and I can't imagine a better time. I got to spend quality time dancing and laughing with... Continue Reading →
When you’re on a low buy and run out of something you love
I has a sad. I don't typically talk about my empties (or at least I haven't in the past nine months), but I feel like we need to discuss this one: my Tarte Frxxxtion Stick 3-in-1 Exfoliating Cleanser. I mentioned this product the other day in my Awake Beauty post. I haven't seen anyone else... Continue Reading →
It’s May! Spring is here, and so is Mental Health Awareness Month
Today in northern Michigan, the sun came out. It was 75 degrees Fahrenheit. Dan and I had a lovely and delicious brunch and then went across the street to the beach for a bit. I took my shoes off and put my toes in the sand and for a few minutes, all was right with... Continue Reading →
I’m still here!
Right now, "here" is a cheap motel in Chattanooga, Tennesee. There's a giant bed that's comfortable enough and the hot water is plentiful, so I really can't complain. I have lots of photos and stories to share, but for tonight I'm going to read a book and go to bed extra early. I'm about 800... Continue Reading →
On the road again…
Well, not at this particular moment, because posting while driving would be dangerous and irresponsible, and typically I'm only one of those things at a time. At the moment I'm sitting in a reasonably priced and surprisingly clean hotel in Fayetteville, North Carolina, after a much longer drive than I anticipated. I spent close to... Continue Reading →
Road trip!
I don't know if I've ever talked about this before, but I really love to travel. More than anything, I love road trips. Over the past few years, I've put several thousand miles on my car driving to far-off places. I like being alone, and when I take trips this way I can control when/where... Continue Reading →
