This past weekend I took a quick trip up to Boston to spend time with my best friend and her new husband. They are coming up on their first year anniversary and I was so excited to see her in her new role as wife; she has it pretty much nailed down and I’m so proud of her.  I remember when we would gush over our mutual love for Justin Timberlake — Oh how things have changed!  Things are a little bit different now but we still make room for gush talk…there is always room to gush over JT.  Three days in Boston wasn’t nearly enough to see all my friends and family I left behind when I moved to Florida but it was so nice to spend a few days in the city that I will always call home.

We are well into 2013 and nothing seems to be slowing down for me — which is a good thing.  I like to keep busy with meaningful projects, friendships and trips.  2012 was pretty great but I’m looking forward to make 2013 even more stellar. Continue reading “Winter Watermelon”

I know it’s been awhile and things have been crazy busy. Sorry for the hiatus.  Between being a bridesmaid in my friend’s Disney wedding, trying to get back into the swing of things at work and to top it all off getting sick again didn’t help and has made December quite the juggling act.  December has come and (almost) gone right before my eyes.  Although I am sad seeing time fly by me I am excited for the upcoming year and the trips I have planned, one of them is going back home to Boston.

There are different kinds of conversations you can have with people.  There’s dialogue, debate and discussion.  Then there’s small talk for the person you get stuck with in the elevator ( I hate awkward elevator moments).  There’s cheap talk, for that guy who tries to woo you with that cheesy ’90s pick up line.  There’s chit chat – the type of talk I do with my favorite make up girls at at my local Sephora (love them!)  Among all the different types of talk my favorite kind is gush talk.

And just like that the weather changes!  A few days ago I was pulling out my boots and knits to prepare for some cold weather and now it’s 80 degrees.  Jacksonville, Florida has pretty wacky weather and I don’t think I will ever get used to it.

Was it the one sparkly glove? Or maybe it was his ability to do all those 360 degree spins in penny loafers?  Maybe it was his transcending music that united people all over the world to take a look at the “Man in the Mirror”?  Well whatever the reason (and there are plenty of them) Michael Jackson is one the greatest entertainers of all time.  He’s totally my fave but I am biased… Continue reading “King of Pop”
