I am a geek. I don’t care who knows it. I was a huge X-Files nerd when the series was on and I’ve learned that, I still am. After watching all 202 episodes of The X-Files, which is 9 glorious seasons and both movies, here are some life lessons that I’ve learned: Believe Mulder believed in aliens and a government conspiracy to cover up the … Continue reading 7 Life Lessons I Learned from The X-Files
This song is nothing more than my final hooray to life as I know it. Life as I know it? Today, I finished my day with pizza and wine. Tomorrow, I start my 12 week transformation. I am focusing on dropping some weight, getting in shape, and taking care of myself in healthy lifestyle. Granted, it’s going to be hard as hell. I picked 12 … Continue reading 01.15.12 – Song of the Day: “Pizza and Wine” by Marvelous 3
This post contains 2 Songs of the Day and awesomeness… Okay, it at least contains 2 Songs of the Day. I didn’t get to post yesterday’s song of the day like I had planned/hoped. I ended up cutting my Friday night short to sit in the ER with friends to make sure another friend’s fall on some stairs was nothing serious. As we sat and … Continue reading 1 Blog, 2 Songs
I have a guilty pleasure I am not ashamed to admit. I’m a fan of Pitbull. I wouldn’t know him if he sat down next me, but I like his music. It’s not going to change the world or inspire someone to move mountains, but it’s a nice fun distraction. I can dance to it or pretend I can dance to it. Sometimes, I just … Continue reading 01.12.12 – Song of the Day: “Shake Senora” by Pitbull
Okay…so it’s 12 days late. Which I think is so apropos! 12…2012..oh never mind, I’m a nerd anyway. In random order and without a lot of reasoning, because I could go on for days.

I … Continue reading My Favorite Albums of 2011
I think the song title says it all, but just in case it doesn’t, “My mama told me there would be days like this.” [youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BteIwbKU_iQ] Continue reading 01.11.12 – Song of the Day: “Days Like This” by Van Morrison
I woke up in bit of a funk this morning. Partly due to the lack of sleep, the headache I feel asleep with, the slight freak out of money now that I’m back from Australia, and how I was suppose to start my reboot of life this week but moved it to next week, dreary weather and so on and so on. Then I realized, … Continue reading Do What it Takes to Keep a Smile on Your Face
“If you could rewind your time, would you change your life today?” I love this band and own every album. This is also one of my favorite songs by them. I try to live my life with no regrets. Sure there are those d’oh moments when I have felt like a complete and utter idiot but even in those, I learned a lesson. There are … Continue reading 01.10.12 – Song of the Day: “Rewind” by Stereophonics
I don’t normally make my “resolutions” vocal because I often fail in doing them. There’s nothing more than that one friend or family member who will constantly chides you on your failure, epic or not. Having said that, I struck out the word resolution and made them goals for myself. Goals are sexier than resolutions. Goals seem easier and my dear friend Amy inspired me … Continue reading Goals of 2012
This song popped up on Pandora while I was listening to the Jimmy Buffett Channel and it completely changed my mood from crummy to good. This is one of my favorite Buffett covers and one of my favorite songs. I even have the southern cross tattooed on my arm…an ode to my love of astronomy and the spirit of the sky. It’s a permanent reminder … Continue reading 01.09.12 – Song of the Day: “Southern Cross”
