Happy Sunday! How has your weekend been? Between skiing Friday night and the murder mystery party last night, I've had a fully scheduled weekend. It's a lot more excitement than I'm used to but it was super fun. I hadn't been skiing probably in two years, but like riding a bicycle, it came right back … Continue reading Of Diamonds and Emeralds, Love and Murder

Prompt 207-Do You Dance
Do you prefer to dance with no one watching, with a group of friends, or with one special partner? I enjoy dancing. Whether I’m alone, with friends, or with a partner, if there’s music playing somewhere, I will move to it. I’m the sort of person who doesn’t particularly believe in “can’t dance.” It’s not … Continue reading Prompt 207-Do You Dance
What Would Felicity Phillips Do?
Hello friends! Sunday is here once again. Didn't we just do this last week? Ah, but I suppose that's how "time" works after all. I'm getting around to writing this a bit later than I normally do but that's because I was a busy beaver this afternoon and had shopping things to do. Next weekend … Continue reading What Would Felicity Phillips Do?
Prompt 204-Museum
Would you rather spend the day at an art museum, science museum, or history museum? I love museums, especially when it means learning new things. Art is cool, and there is much to be learned from history, but science museums have always been my favorites. Interactive exhibits where you get to perform experiments or build … Continue reading Prompt 204-Museum
Prompt 203-Comic
Describe your favorite comic strip or cartoon. When I read “comic strip” I think of the funnies section of my stepdad’s newspaper. I would read them while I ate my cereal before school, to get myself in a good mood before heading off to have my soul sucked dry (I’m being mostly hyperbolic here, I … Continue reading Prompt 203-Comic
Prompt 200-Favorite Band
Who was your favorite band or singer when you were young? I guess we’ll kick off this week with the nostalgia train. I like this prompt because “when you were young” is just vague enough that I can think of distinct phases of my musical taste aging that I all consider “when I was young.” … Continue reading Prompt 200-Favorite Band
Backstreet’s…Back? What?
Good morning fellow bloggers, writers, friends, and randos! How are you on this fine Sunday? Hopefully it's warmer than earlier this week. I know the temperature is trending upward here. We're going to be in the mid-40's today and then, allegedly, 51 tomorrow and 58 on Tuesday. That's the kind of weather I would crack … Continue reading Backstreet’s…Back? What?
Prompt 199-What’s In A Name 3
Does your name have a meaning? If so, what is it? If not, make up your own meaning for it. As a kid I learned that Sara was Hebrew for “princess” and naturally was filled with a sense of wonder and power. Every little girl dreams of being a princess at some point or another, … Continue reading Prompt 199-What’s In A Name 3
Prompt 198-Advice
What is the best piece of advice you have ever been given? Not so much advice as inspiration, I once read something to the effect of “We’re all just making it up as we go. No one has it all figured out. Do what makes you happy.” I apply a lot of similar mantras to … Continue reading Prompt 198-Advice
You Can’t Always Get What You Want
Happy Sunday, friends! Have an early-ish post today because I have plans for the afternoon. Some overdue human interaction with someone who is not my husband! (Have I mentioned I do not get out much? Other people? Hiss boo hiss.) My friend from work is coming over to hang out and watch anime and eat … Continue reading You Can’t Always Get What You Want
