Naked, Afraid, and Soon-to-be Utterly Alone

Ok, I’m not literally naked, because my dad lives with us and that is completely horrifying, but I am exposing my soul completely in the upcoming series of blog posts. As you know if you have ever met me or read any of my writing, I suffer from fairly extreme clinical anxiety. I have been…

Thankful and stuff

Alright, so somehow, November has snuck up on me again. I say it every year, but time is flying by at warp speed, and it drives me a little nuts. September punched me in the throat a bit, when I remembered that this is the year I turned 39. That’s not ok. When did that…

I have some crazy talented friends in my circle of influence. One of those, my dear friend Ofelia, has been helping out designing some t-shirt ideas for my podcast, Nerdy Bitches (available on iTunes, if you have been living under a rock, or at nerdybitches.com).

Ah, I have to admit, I have been wanting to use that line for a while – much like Admiral Ackbar before me.  If you don’t know what I am talking about, you are clearly not a Girl Geek, like me.  Here’s a hint: There are some stars… and a couple of wars 😉 It’s…

Happy Healthy New Year

Normally, at the beginning or ending of a new year, I like to do a little recap of that year.  This year, I have decided to spare my readers from reliving the angst.  Because this year is about getting better – Physically, Mentally, Emotionally, and Spiritually.  I have learned a lot this past year about…
