The Roller Coaster Analogy

It’s like this:
(Well, it’s kind of like this. I can’t really come up with the best analogy.)
It’s like you’re at an amusement park and your friend says, “Hey, let’s go on the roller coaster!” And you really really really don’t want to because you hate roller coasters, but you go anyways.
So you’re trapped there, in [...]

Words I Love

Quotes. In my mind they all hover around the same thing, but I’m not sure anyone else would get that.
The word friends doesn’t seem to stretch big enough to describe how we feel about each other. We forget where one of us starts and the other one stops. –The Second Summer of the Sisterhood
“People find [...]

My Dandelion Wish

There’s a phrase, a mantra of sorts, that continually runs through my mind. Sometimes it’s like I believe that if I think it hard enough, they’ll hear it, they’ll get the message without me having to actually tell them.
Please be okay.
Not that telling them would be the worst thing. It’s just that we don’t talk [...]

Shinyness!

In case you were wondering…

I officially have a MacBook. Also officially in debt because of it, but it’s debt to my dad so not such a huge deal.
Also I have to take my car to the shop in the morning.
Also we have family coming soon so I have to clean but also I’ll be working [...]

I’m a Hippie Man Riding in My Hippie Van

Okay so a few days back I might have mentioned that I have funny stories from Mason and Lala’s visit to share with you guys.
And then, as I always seem to do, I PROMPTLY FORGOT ABOUT THEM. Which is why I’m writing this post now; I’m afraid if I wait until the morning (instead of [...]

Funny Stuff, Hopefully

Friendlies, I’ve been noticing lately that I seem to be doing A LOT of serious posts and not so many funny ones. Which I’m kind of wondering about seeing as how I really do like the funny and the only reason I’m not using it so much lately is because, I don’t know, the serious [...]

Yes, I’m That Cool

The plan had been growing in my mind for a while and today I finally bit the bullet: I bought me and Taylor the Lovely digital cameras.
Target. Red Nikon Coolpix (yes, we both have the same color). Yeah, it was a lot of money, especially since I got her one too. But I’m happy.
So happy.
 This [...]

Her Early Years

This idea is taken right from Nothing But Bonfires’ timelines series. Today, years zero through six.
Year Zero.
I am born. A month later I’m flown down to the valley in an emergency because apparently I’m turning blue or something. Oops, there’s something wrong with my heart and lots of flurrying to save me; surgery and pediatric [...]

I Finally Own Pixar

So I’ve been thinking, friendlies. You have to have a certain amount of ego to post your life on the internets in the form of bloggeryness. I mean, even if you don’t think of yourself as a particularly narcissistic person (I don’t), there still must be a little bit of that if you think anyone [...]

Another The Jordyn Report

First things first; I’ve started a page for Project for Self on the wordpress blog. Just named the page P.S. though because that’s so much shorter. So go, join, leave comments (I love comments!), and whatever.
Now on with it. I don’t have anything specific to write about, but a new PS post should be in [...]
