Detroit-bred, BGSU alummed and Alpha Phi lifer. Scentsy addicted. Lover of Michigan & Michigan's Great Lakes. Semi-serious Costco patron, newly obsessed with hot tea. Appreciator of fine Real Estate and a wanna-be artist of somekind. Collector of office supplies and post-it notes, adores anything butchy-chic and any collages of random yet related things. Pinterest is kinda how my brain works - one second I'm thinking of constructing a headboard, three seconds later I'm distracted by reorganizing a junk drawer.

All salt must be followed by sweet, and vice versa. A caramel covered pretzel, voila. And Diet Coke. And pistachios. And popcorn.

I always have great intentions but often stifle when it comes to follow through. This blog is kindof my accountability partner, to "Be you. And be you WELL. Live the life you've imagined."

Cozy up. Enjoy, or don't. Afterall, this corner of the internet is reserved for me to just be me.

Preparation to Launch - Part Deux

Okay. So. This is too funny to not share. 

"Mead Five Subject" I speak of in Part 1.
Remember me mentioning in Part 1 about being anal?
Here's proof. This was the inside cover of my journal to remind myself of the rules.

Let's look at this for a moment.
At 10-years-old, I retired Dino for Liss, and scrapped unruly stick letters for cursive.
I am loving my precision - "At 5:00 today, I decided to quit dance." 
I claim to be upset, but then parenthetically divulge that I hated dance.
My proficient spelling OBVIOUSLY came later in life.
Today's report card would indeed look similar - though Penmanship would be an 'A', and I would flunk Religion.
