Friday Friend-day!

I’m either one of two places right now: 1) Dead because Continental can’t fly airplanes or 2) laying on a beach drinking beer. I’m hoping it’s #2. Even though I’m out o da country, the show must go on….in honor of my traveling buddy, here’s your Friday Friend-day!
This is my little sister, Jodie:

Isn’t she pretty?? [...]

So apparently blackberries work overseas, too…..plus, my dog finally peed like a boy- it’s a miracle!

Before I had a real job vacation was really vacation. I didn’t have to worry about answering my phone or email or anything like that. Apparently when you are over the age of 25 and have what could be classified as a “career”, you get to/have to take your phone with you on vacation! And [...]

Please have karaoke at my funeral…..thanks.

So, maybe you know or maybe you don’t, but I’m going to the Bahamas tomorrow with my sister! And I’m super excited. Oh, except for this part:
Now, I fly ALL THE TIME! for work. I usually just sleep, or read Sky Mall magazine. Unfortunately, I have never flown on a plane this small. Technically that’s [...]

I am so clever that sometimes I don’t understand a single word of what I am saying…..

I had this on my facebook page, and someone asked me if I made it up. No, I didn’t. Since I haven’t spent any of my Starbucks gift cards from Christmas, the first person to tell me who said it gets a gift card! It’s re-gifting. In June. See, I recycle!
This one’s a long one, [...]

Yes, I made it to the church on time….barely…..

*Note. Before you start reading this post, start this youtube video. It’s theme music!*

These are my good friends Josh and Michelle:
I met Josh at my first job (remember, at the firm called “Hell”) Our offices were on the same floor, and I always secretly hated him because I got there at [...]

Friday Friend-Day!

First off, I think you know you’ve really made it in the blogging world when the following search terms pull your blog up in google:

stuff to keep you busy during class

everything i learned in school was wrong

everything i know i learned from cows

Yeah. Obviously I’m a hit on the internet. Cows? Really?

Nerds, Greenpeace, Polar Bears, Improv, Facebook, 30 Day Shred, and Happy Birthday Sister!

I’m sitting at Starbucks writing this because my neighbor moved. You’re probably wondering what that has to do with me being at Starbucks. I “borrowed” his wireless internet for the past year. I came home on Sunday and there were moving trucks out front. I realized I was going to be having major “interweb problemos” [...]

Caution is the most valuable asset in fishing, especially if you are the fish……

In college, I had a pet fish. His name was Bob Carlos Santana. Carl was a good fish. When I’d come home after a night out of drinking /not country western dancing reading the bible, I’d feed him goldfish crackers, poptarts, and a myriad of other human food that probably wasn’t appropriate for fish. I [...]

You can take the girl out of the country….

and apparently you can take the country out of the girl- especially when it wasn’t really there to begin with…..
So last night when I was watching DWTB, I started wondering where my obsession with ball room dancing comes from. Actually I really started thinking about dancing in general, and the 4 times I have actually [...]

Judge me if you want, but “The Hills” is pretty fantastic……

DISCLAIMER: In the midst of my need to change the blog name/buy a website/set up said website, I decided to make an entire blog set-up change. This is still Ashley’s blog. But there’s more than one way to skin a cat. Moving on….
