2012 was a year of lies | GOING SOFLO
https://goingsoflo.wordpress.com/2013/02/20/2012-was-a-year-of-lies
It's warmer here: a blog about transition. 2012 was a year of lies. Patching problems became my second nature, and so began my long-practiced craft of applying band-aids to temporarily fix situations. Once the pain stopped, I rarely took the time to heal the faulty process that led to the wounds. It’s much easier to buy more band-aids. This carried into the smallest behaviors of my life:. I bought new underwear instead of going to the laundromat. Try not to trip over that baggage metaphor.). Something ab...

To live and die in New Orleans | GOING SOFLO
https://goingsoflo.wordpress.com/2013/09/22/to-live-and-die-in-the-new-orleans
It's warmer here: a blog about transition. To live and die in New Orleans. Over the summer, I spent two weeks in Austin, then a few days back here in SoFlo, then joined my husband in his former home of New Orleans for a four-day work trip. Austin is the fastest growing city in the United States. She’s So Unusual. Album live at Stubb’s Bar-B-Q. It’s hard to live (or die) in the Big Easy. On our first night in NOLA, we ate dinner at local favorite Adolfo’s. The community builds around ruins, around cobbled...

From hospital room to stateroom | GOING SOFLO
https://goingsoflo.wordpress.com/2014/05/03/from-hospital-room-to-stateroom
It's warmer here: a blog about transition. From hospital room to stateroom. My 2013 was pretty great until August when it sunk into fear and loathing in hospitals. As a result of the clarity that emerges from losing control of situations, I began 2014 with a renewed focus on how lucky my unlucky August actually was. Even worse than last year. 1 NOT ROUTINE SURGERY, Part One. Sixteen hours later I was on a plane to visit my dad in ICU. Twenty-four hours later I listened to the podcast. At the end of Augus...

http://thethirtydaytrial.blogspot.com/2011/01/day-7-present-its-in-right-now.html
The Thirty Day Trial. Its okay to be a quitter. Saturday, January 8, 2011. Day 7: The Present. Its In Right Now. Today, I have made it one week without a cigarette or a beer, and I have run 8.5 miles. By the way, is it weird that you're reading this while Cesar Milan seduces you with his eyes? Because its kind of weird for me, but that awkwardness just makes me even happier with my photo selection.). Eff that. I'm spending that cash. Marathon on Animal Planet or TLC or whatever over the holidays. As ...

The Thirty Day Trial: Day 21: Dog Has Cahones Removed, Hilarity Ensues
http://thethirtydaytrial.blogspot.com/2011/01/on-thursday-hops-had-in-words-of-my.html
The Thirty Day Trial. Its okay to be a quitter. Saturday, January 22, 2011. Day 21: Dog Has Cahones Removed, Hilarity Ensues. On Thursday Hops had (in the words of my father-in-law) his do-dads removed. The cone they gave him was too small, so Mike googled other alternatives. See photo for details:. If you can't duck it.". Didn't expect that adage to apply to my dog. In case you were wondering what we've been up to these days.. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Day 20: Flashb...

The Thirty Day Trial: Day 8: I Am Not Pregnant.
http://thethirtydaytrial.blogspot.com/2011/01/day-9-i-am-not-pregnant.html
The Thirty Day Trial. Its okay to be a quitter. Sunday, January 9, 2011. Day 8: I Am Not Pregnant. Apparently, if you're 30 and quit drinking and smoking, people think you're pregnant. And they ask you about it. If I were pregnant, and ready to tell people I was pregnant, I would just tell you I'm pregnant. If I were pregnant, and not ready to tell people I was pregnant, I would tell you to take your tactless questions and place them delicately where the sun don't shine. I'm I right here? The week before...

The Thirty Day Trial: Day 6: Flashback Friday!
http://thethirtydaytrial.blogspot.com/2011/01/day-6-flashback-friday.html
The Thirty Day Trial. Its okay to be a quitter. Friday, January 7, 2011. Day 6: Flashback Friday! So this blog will have a * NEW FEATURE* called "Flashback Friday" in which I reminisce about something incredibly stoopid I did when I was smoking and drinking like a world champion. Ideally, I will recall said stupidity, feel something akin to disgust over my ridiculousness, and feel renewed in my commitment to quit smokes and drinks. You are a Starbucks loyalist! Um, only because the Dunkin Donuts ice coff...

The Thirty Day Trial. Its okay to be a quitter. Tuesday, January 4, 2011. New Year. New blog. New idea. Happy New Year friends and readers! So, this year was a doozey, huh? A little like a kick in the shin, right? Yeah I feel you. So fresh start it is! I'm kicking my bad habits, folks, and because I love those habits sooo sooo sooo much, I'm going to write about how I handle ditching them for thirty days in an effort to bleach the laundry of my life. Yes, folks, I'm going to:. I think to myself. I love d...
