The Thief

Image
Hello One and All.  I come here today to share a story, a story of loss and a dream of vengeance.  Just the other day on a Tuesday afternoon much like many Tuesdays before something unspeakable happened. I was using the loo like any lady must throughout the day, and with me I had my lunchbox. Yes, I know that lunchboxes and bathrooms shouldn't go together but it was for this very fear that became my reality that I brought my box with me into the terrifying place called the women's restroom, hanging my steadfast and reliable lunchbox from the tiny little hook in the stall. It seems I was rather distracted while taking care of business and after wrapping up I walked out of there without a care in the world.  I began walking home, that's when I noticed, my beloved lunchbox was nowhere to be found! Panicked I began to track down mentally everywhere my dear box could be, was it in a classroom, somehow in my backpack or was it just as I feared, left for dead in the ba...

This Skeleton understands how life is after drinking a good cup o' Joe and feeling like you're going to fly right off your rocker into a black hole and dissolve into oblivion. This skeleton is my life, this skeleton needed to be shared. 

Hello Friends!

Greetings, Happy early as all get morning up to you!  Thanks to daylight savings time I woke up today at 5:20 AM which would have normally been 4:20 AM a day ago, I would like my hour back now thank you very much.... AHHH! Curse this strange clock changing we must do. Alas, despite my lack of sleep I will voyage on! I want to talk to you about a super nifty place I explored this weekend in the Milwaukee Area called Lapham Peak. Lapham Peak is a lovely state park just west of the city offering a great mini adventure for the day. Jake and I went on a nice hike on one of the larger trails and even climbed "the Stairway to Heaven", you don't do that everyday! Lapham Peak is gorgeous and action packed with creatures of all sorts such as deer and chipmunks galore! If you're feeling more ambitious than we were you can even climb the tower at the top of the park for what I'm sure is a glorious view of the surrounding area, I wouldn't know I was feeling a bi...

Dragon Ball Z

Dragon, Dragon! Watch the Dragon!! Alright, I must admit I may be kind of, sort of, maybe a little late on this one but I have finally been introduced to the excellence that is Dragon Ball Z!! Yes, this show was on when I was a child, yes I'm a grown woman watching cartoons, what are you gonna do about it!? Dragon Ball Z kicks freaking butt! I've already proven my new addiction to this show by ordering a super B.A DBZ tank top from Hot Topic so I can pretend to be a super cool Sayian warrior, whaddd up! Now, let me explain my predicament, I was a sheltered child growing up and my mother refused to let me partake in the watching of the shows all the cool kids grew up loving, take for example, Pokemon, Dragon Ball Z, and Digimon. Oh yes, I was denied viewing rights to these cherished animated series because they were too violent, I was also forbidden to watch the Simpsons because it was too vulgar, now one of my favorite shows is South Park, my how the tables have turned! As o...

Kiwis

Good day to you!  I want to inform you all of a fantastic discovery I've recently made! I have experienced an out of this world revelation.... are you ready for this? You can eat Kiwi skins!!! Say whaaaaaaaaa!?!?! Alright, perhaps this isn't eye opening news to all, maybe not even most but for me this is a game changer. I always avoided eating the kiwi skins because way back in the day I heard a rumor that the kiwi skin was bad for you, perhaps even poisonous!! *GASP* Now, I never quite believed this because if a kiwi's skin was poisonous I doubt we'd be able to eat the fruit in the first place but alas I always avoided the skin regardless. Flash forward to earlier this week, I had bought two kiwis and was thinking to myself how much it sucks cutting these little buggers up, I told mah-man-thang that he should look up if its safe to eat kiwi skins and sure thing it is!!! I did it yesterday, I bit right into that kiwi like it was some sort of voluptuous apple and it w...

Lazyyyy Time! It's cold and gross out so let's discuss something we all love, something to assist us all as we widdle away the hours enduring these chilly days.... that's right ya'll I'm talking about some high quality Netflix time. I pride myself in getting out there and staying active even in the frosty days of winter but not even I cannot deny sometimes all I want to do is get home, cuddle up on that couch and watch a good ole television series. Everyone needs to relax and be lazy from time to time and the season of winter was pretty much designed for such events to occur. See below for my list of TV delights! *Jane the Virgin This one came as a shock to me, I had heard about it before but never really had a clue what it was about. I saw some of my friends talking about it on social media and upon browsing on Pinterest one day I saw it on a list much like this one so earlier this week I decided to give it a whirl. Now, I'm on winter break from colle...

What to do in Denver

Image
Great Divide Brewery It's no secret that Denver loves beer. The Great Divide Brewing Company is something of a hipster paradise. Curled mustaches and flannel shirts fill this small establishment to the brim. Hipster or not, Great Divide has something for everyone. The drinks were delicious and packed with a punch! I tried the Yeti Imperial Stout and Claymore Scotch Ale, both were fab. Little Man Ice Cream Notice: This list may mostly consist of foods and drinks because that's just how I roll. Sometimes I like to do a little research before embarking on a journey. So when I discovered Little Man Ice Cream on Yelp I knew we had to check it out. Little Man lived up to its great online ratings. I got a two scoop creation of deliciousness along with a mother-flippin' free brownie, my taste buds were pleased and my sweet tooth was satisfied.  Downtown Aquarium Alright folks, get this, the Denver downtown aquarium only costs $18.99 for adult general ad...
