Warm wishes from your favorite ENFP

Sorry I haven’t posted, baby-blog!! I kind of feel like writing ten articles today and back-posting them so it appears I’ve been on-the-ball, even though I haven’t. Anyway. I read this article yesterday, “25 struggles only ENFPs will understand,” because I am probably the biggest sucker for all things personality-quiz. Really. I even read allContinueContinue reading “Warm wishes from your favorite ENFP”

Fast post! Beautiful things!

Guys!! I know that there are a million things to do before this weekend (my sister just said, “Nell!!! We have so many things to do this weekend!”) BUT, I feel compelled to post a few things, so I will. (Maybe because I feel guilty if I don’t. Catholic guillllllllllt, ya’ll. Make a joke aboutContinueContinue reading “Fast post! Beautiful things!”

Livin’ life, taking names

Is it fair to tag this post with a bit of “photography” even though I don’t really have photography skills to speak of, I just snap shots of things that I find breathtaking? Like above, for instance, the glare of the water being shaded by the trees, opening up to the jewel-toned leaves in theContinueContinue reading “Livin’ life, taking names”

Seven cute things about guinea pigs

So. Today I was crocheting. I crocheted a scarf. And it’s beautiful (mostly). I was looking at what started as a ball of yarn and ended up as a fluffy scarf with the use of only a plastic hook, my brain, my hands, and a few dedicated twists and I was like, “Well, dang, IContinueContinue reading “Seven cute things about guinea pigs”

Such words. Much length. Very racial injustices and how I don’t know how to love as I should

Monday I went running. I ran the farthest I’ve ever run, which isn’t actually far, only five miles, because Christine is training for a half-marathon and I’ve been training for the halves of her half-marathon so that when she runs the loops twice, I only run them once. Don’t judge. It’s my own form ofContinueContinue reading “Such words. Much length. Very racial injustices and how I don’t know how to love as I should”

State of the Union, 2014

So. It’s birthday time on the blahg. WAIT A SECOND, before you jump to conclusions: is isn’t my birthday, it’s the blog’s birthday. Happy birthday, blog! I’ve been writing for two years now, which is weird to think about. Because when I started I was kind of like, “Will I have enough of the thingsContinueContinue reading “State of the Union, 2014”

I think it’s funny that there are people who think I should have a thigh gap

Julia threw down some serious awesome in my inbox early in the weekend, and I asked her permission to share. For real. I just had this hilarious moment where I loved my body and I laughed in the face of anyone who’s ever insinuated I should be anything else. I love being strong! I loveContinueContinue reading “I think it’s funny that there are people who think I should have a thigh gap”
