At a Loss April 27, 2007

How do you know when to walk away from a friend who is self destructing? I’ve never been in this position before and it is awful. I’ve given so much – time, worrying, counsel, my home – and it appears to be all for nothing. I don’t know how much more I [...]

The Big Interview April 24, 2007

Ok, so AmyD did a fun little interview on her page (courtesy of Jill) and I decided to play too! Below are the questions that AmyD asked of me and my (long…sorry!) answers.
1.) How did you meet Mr. Rawkstar? When you first met him, did you just KNOW he was the one for you, [...]

Not Yet a Blonde… April 23, 2007

Well, the hair appointment didn’t end up happening. The lady seemed a bit overwhelmed with the whole project and pretty much turned me away. I feel petty for saying this, but I totally and completely FREAKED out when I walked out of the salon. Like sobbing and heaving freak out. I [...]

Blondes Really Do Have More Fun April 16, 2007

Well, at least that has been my experience.  I grew up blonde my entire life….as you can see, I was a toehead as a child:

As I started to get into my teens, my hair got a little bit darker, but it was still definitely blonde.  As the years went on, I began highlighting it to [...]

Circle of Friends April 12, 2007

It’s not that I ever doubted how great my group of girlfriends was, but during the last week and a half of me being unemployed, they have all really shown just how much they care.  I didn’t go a day with out seeing one of them, getting a sweet text or email or being able to [...]

Something to Be Excited About April 6, 2007

Well, since this week has been rather uneventful – just the endless job search, resume sending and an interview – I thought I’d post something exciting!  It’s taken me a while to get a picture of this because I wanted everything to heal.  Then when it finally was healed, I freaking lost Mr. Rawkstar’s camera!  [...]

My Gut is Always Right April 3, 2007

Well, you know how I had a panic attack on Sunday night?   It’s been ages since I’ve had one and it just came on out of nowhere and I couldn’t shake this sinking feeling all day yesterday.  Sure enough…
…I got laid off.
I’ve always had a pretty fine tuned intuition and here is yet another instance [...]

It’s Just Another Manic Monday April 2, 2007

I’ve been told (by a source I consider reliable) that they are laying off 4 people (there are only about 20 in the office to begin with) and that it is happening either today or tomorrow.
I had a full-on panic attack last night when I laid down to go to sleep. I have issues [...]
