    My Little Buffalo

“Adversity, we get around it. Searched for joy, in you I found it…” ~Relient K

I used to sing in the car. It didn’t matter what was on the radio – Carrie Underwood, Britney Spears, Steppenwolf, Michael Buble, Jay-Z.  I even have Moses Hogan CD’s that I popped in, just to belt out Elijah Rock (don’t know what that is?  youtube it. you won’t regret it, I promise).  It was [...]

What we do matters.

For four days, I frolicked throughout New York City with over 2,000 strangers.  I took classes, drank martinis, participated in my first ever 5K, & wore shoes that absolutely killed my feet: good thing they are precious, right? I roomed with three amazing women – Jill, Mae, & Mandy.  & I DIDN’T GET MURDERED IN [...]

I believe the phrase of the day is: {AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH} I’m leaving for New York City today. I’m sure that would be fine if I weren’t so socially awkward.  & afraid of getting punched in the mouth the first time I say, “Excuse me, y’all!” in my ever-so-sorority-girly-voice that raises five octaves & decibels when I’m [...]

I had to stop writing this post four times because I kept spontaneously combusting from excitement.

I’m about to get really annoying. Like…the most annoying I’ve ever been in my entire life, dwarfing that period of blogging where I DIDN’T SAY NO TO ANY GIVEAWAY & then had my mental & emotional breakdown.  What?  Dudes, I am so well-aware of how obnoxious I was. At least you could escape by clicking [...]

Texts from last night.

Or, if you want to be specific, Texts from Wednesday Night. On Wednesday night, Nate & I headed out to see Dave Matthews Band in concert.  This, my friends, was an act of love on my part.  I like Dave…I really do.  But I don’t love Dave & I’ve put in four out of the [...]

You’re pretty.

I really do have the sweetest husband alive. Last night, we crawled into bed.  I wore a grungy old ADPi tshirt from college, a pair of his boxers, with zit cream & lime-green rollers in my hair (HEY, DON’T JUDGE MY NOD TO 1950, OKAY?!) & he leaned over to kiss me.  “Babe,” he said.  [...]

Blair Loves Blogging.

Duh.  OBVIOUSLY. It’s therapy.  It’s community.  It’s laughter & tears & emails & pictures & OH MY GAH, how I love blogging.  I love being a blogger & I love reading blogs.  I thank God for blogs every day & the community that screams “ME TOO!” through the computer screen. I’m a nerd like that. [...]

“That would be harsher punishment for parole violators, Stan. And, WORLD PEACE!”

I took a personal day today. & anyone who knows me will tell you THAT I NEEDED IT.  You know those moments where you know if you don’t STOP, that you’re going to be sick?  Not sick in the head.  Because crazy isn’t contagious.  But if you don’t slow down & rest, you’re going to [...]

If you think that high school was the best time of your life, you must not have gone to college.

In honor of Guest Blog Week, I participated on Friday by guest blogging for the lovely Jaci at Ravings of a Mad Housewife.   I’d keep going but honestly, her blog title speaks for itself & y’all are smart folk.   check it out, add to your reader, & thank me later! But in case you didn’t catch the post [...]

I totally forgot how much I love Boyz II Men

& looking back, how inappropro it was to slow-dance with the kid from my social studies class to “I’ll Make Love to You” at the 7th grade dance.
