Thank you... I think you’re right. I might need to terminate this friendship.

I will admit to one bad choice and that’s not having a conversation with him a while back making it very clear that he’s just a friend. Outside of that, I’ve been a friend who has tried my best to act with kindness. So when he wanted to continue to hangout, I said that I had plans to go on a bike ride and he looked…

You know, you’re right. I guess I have felt a bit stuck because I’ve had no way of really justifying distancing myself because we were very good friends at my last job. His crush didn’t really dawn on me until about a year ago and I have feared the discussion of “Hey, I think we need to be clear about our…

Thanks for the snark.

A couple of others have mentioned Ann Taylor Loft and I would also recommend that store. They seem to email me several times a week with really great sales and they’re pretty standard in terms of appropriate work attire.

Sadly, I think you’re right.

My holiday weekend actually went really well until yesterday, when one of my friends attempted to turn a casual brunch into a day-long date... This wasn’t the first time he has done this to me and it has never been obvious enough for me to call him out on it, so I’ve just let it go. But yesterday was a different…

Thank you for the validation. The guy I’m kind of into suggested Bo Burnam... So I feel you.

I just watched Bo Burnam Make Happy on Netflix, which was my first Burnam experience... I felt such a mix of emotions throughout the show. He had some hilarious moments and quite progressive jokes and then all of the sudden you’re slammed with a “faggot” joke and later on a song about suicide. I tend to think of…

I don’t remember! Very possible, though.

I also just started my new job this past week! I found out that I’m actually going to be making a lot more money than I originally agreed to, which was an exciting surprise. I’m still figuring out who people are and if I’ll actually make any social connections while I’m there. Being new is hard so I’m ready for my…

I had a really short and bizarre dream last night where I was out at a bar and went to use one of the two single stall bathrooms. Once I got in line for one of the bathrooms, all of the sudden about 20 people randomly showed up behind me in line and all stared at me as we all waited... I felt like a really important…

Ah yes... I think you’re right. I knew it was something non-violent.

I’m riding in the Hudson Valley Bike Tour tomorrow! It’s a 33 mile ride around really pretty countryside.

I JUST finished watching this season... Oh my. So much to process.

I just returned from a young women’s leadership conference where I was on the planning committee and a workshop facilitator. I’ve been running retreats, conferences, and workshops on gender and intersectionality for almost 10 years (mostly higher ed) and it’s something I really LOVE doing. In fact, I’m pretty dang…

I’m not a gun owner but I regularly do target practice with my dad with his 22 and handgun. Skeet shooting has been next on my list to try. Assault rifles scare the living shit out of me.

Hey there! I just wanted to send you a big thank you for recommending “it’s a 10 miracle leave in” to me. THAT STUFF IS AMAZING. My hair has been looking so good and it’s so soft! Lots of compliments from people. You just saved my summer because humidity hair makes me an absolute grump.

*Adds another thing to the Ulta shopping cart.*

Wow, this looks great! All of the reviews seem to agree with you. Thank you! :)
