You Should See My House

I’m really happy with how my house is looking, check out the pictures: http://www.Obeo.com/585718
Call me partial, but I have to say I think I have one of the coolest houses on the block, if not in all of Plano for it’s price range. Listed at 165,000 my home is a great first-time buyer property and [...]

Sticks and Stones May Break My Bones…

But Words will never hurt me.
I’m not sure that there has ever been a more untrue children’s mantra. I think bones heal long before wounds created by words.
While at Boyd High School in McKinney I saw this circle of flowers right in the middle of the hall area where students enter. I asked this student, [...]

Village Tea

Wrapped in warm shades of brown with hints of orange and subtle undertones of cream, Village Tea is an inviting sensory experience that is pleasing to the eyes and the palette.
Gnutella filled crepes served hot with fresh whipped cream and hot ginger lemon tea was one of the many highlights of the Blogher networking event [...]

Self Gratification: A Frank Discussion (PG-13)

While I was at the Song of Solomon conference on Oct. 2-3rd Mark & Grace Driscoll took some Q&A’s from the audience. People would text in their questions and then they would answer them live on stage.
Question: As a single woman, what do I do to satisfy my sexual desires? Don’t give me a pat [...]

I should have been a writer…

Recently a friend of mine posted a scanned copy of our 6th grade class newsletter. I was tagged in the image and when I looked at it I saw that there was a short story that I had written about a Russian named Vladimir and a really large donut the size of a sheet cake.
Wow, [...]

What Happened to You?

I think people often forget what it is like to be single. They parade their chubby cute kids in front of us like they just won the baby lotto complete with baby showers, baby laughter and new friends that just so happen to have babies.
“Look at our baby! Isn’t he/she adorable! Watch out for the [...]

This Kid is Awesome

This kid is really, really good. I mean his level of skill for his age is unbelievable. When you dance, you know how hard it is to balance and he copies moves from You Got Served almost exactly.

Vendor/Customer Relationships… this one is Classic

As a DJ I run into this all the time. “We are on a tight budget” normally means, “Please do this for free.” It gets very old as my DJ equipment cost about 10,000 dollars and the song library constantly has to be updated and of course there is a great deal more to being [...]

Waco – You are that embarrassing cousin no one likes to see at Christmas

The average age in Waco is 112
Waco is full of strange people who look crazy, I am sure that is why David Koresh picked it as a launching pad for his cult.
Waco got pregnant during junior high and that is why the Capital was moved to Austin instead of the original Waco location. 
Waco has a [...]

DFW Blogger Meetup – Because We’re Cool Like That

Or at least Texas Holly and Miss-Elaine-ous are cool like that. Thank you ladies for planning such a great event!
About a month ago my friend Jes sent me an email that read, “DFW Blogger Dinner Party planned for February 28th” and I replied immediately, “I’m in!” I mean you are combining 3 of my favorite [...]

Self Mutilation? No thanks, I’m good

Today I was at the gym getting a little workout on and I couldn’t help but notice a skinny white guy in cut-off jeans shorts lifting weights and looking as out of place as the Pope at a strip club. 
Tattoos adorned his arms and his frail body was so rockstar thin that I couldn’t help [...]
