01.24.12 – Song of the Day: “Move By Yourself”
This song is dedicated to my friend and baby sistah from another mister, Cristina. She’s leaving & returning home to D.C. In the end, she knows she’ll be happy there. We’ve only known each other for a little while, but she will be a forever friend and I hope this song will always inspire her. “And then a friend said, Don’t stop doing what you believe … Continue reading 01.24.12 – Song of the Day: “Move By Yourself”
Frustration and Focus
I saw a sign on Pinterest and it said “There are over 7 billion people on the planet, are you going to let 1 person ruin your day?” And I thought, wow, that’s pretty powerful. But today, I let one person @ poor customer service ruin my day. It was really the straw that broke the camel’s back for this company. Normally, I’ll let the … Continue reading Frustration and Focus

Simple Things
I spent a few hours with my funny 2 year old niece. She always makes me laugh. She says exactly what’s on her mind without thought and I love it. I hope she keeps her quick wit and sharp tongue as she grows. It is part of what makes her amazing. She’s getting over a stomach virus. She reeks of vomit and it’s encrusted in … Continue reading Simple Things

One of Those Days
Today was “one of those days…” Nothing crazy happened. No deadline popped up. No last minute requests. No one threw me under the bus. Nothing bad happened. No work stress. No, crap, I forgot to do that reminders once I leave work. Nothing. I answered a few dumb emails. Seriously, if people could just take a moment to reflect before they hit send, they’d realize … Continue reading One of Those Days
01.19.12 – Song of the Day: “Uku” by Dengue Fever
I found this song today, on WNCW. Don’t be shocked if I don’t always listen to the stations that I work for. I listen to WNCW in the morning for NPR. It’s the only way I get my news unless I go to CNN. Often on the drive home, I flip between stations and when I want something off the beaten path, I go to … Continue reading 01.19.12 – Song of the Day: “Uku” by Dengue Fever
