Office rehaul

05Sep09

As you may or may not know, I work for a non-profit agency in Boston.  Our staff is small, but our goal (and our reach) is pretty big.  We serve a lot of people, without a lot of staff or resources, and we do it well, which is great.  Anyway, this isn’t about the actual […]


V-a-c-a-t-i-o-n

19Aug09

Marc and I don’t get to take vacations terribly often — we usually find ourselves traveling to see our families or taking days off to do various household tasks.  It’s rare for us to get away (for more than just a weekend…) for the thrill and relaxation of it all.  This year, we were invited […]


I generally like the coziness that rain and snow provide.  I don’t mind gray skies and I always like cool temperatures.  But I’ve had enough!  This has been an exceptionally rainy June, and it’s already starting to be a July with HEAVY rain.  Marc got stuck in Virginia overnight unexpectedly, after chaos at Logan deterred […]


Purge!

14Jun09

I purged about 40% of my closet today, getting rid of all the stuff that feels icky and big on me.  I realize that this doesn’t leave me with a ton of clothes, but it gets the stuff that is too big actually OUT of my sight.  I know that sounds dumb, but with the […]


New blog

03Jun09

Marc and I have collectively started a new food blog, to keep track of our recipes and collectively write about our restaurant experiences.  Please add it to your google reader or check back in often!  It is: http://saucyandbossy.wordpress.com We welcome your comments!!  🙂


Marc and I got a Wii/Wii Fit today!  I was skeptical at first, mostly because I am not at all coordinated, and I always am a little skeptical of certain technologies (especially video game ones, because we grew up in a video-game-free house).  Anyway, Cecilia has one and has raved about it, and Marc and […]


My mom finished up her trip to Massachusetts with a road trip to New Jersey.  We headed to New Jersey for my sister’s graduation; she finished her Master’s degree in Diplomacy and International Relations at Seton Hall University. This was my first Master’s degree ceremony (I did not attend my own — I finished in […]


I hate Medford Home Depot.  I hate it.  I saw a mouse skitter across the floor.  An associate took Marc and me around for an HOUR trying to find the stuff on our list and when she let us to our own devices, we found what we needed to find (on our own, all concentrated […]


Shut-in

15Apr09

My neck is getting better very slowly.  I have used my doctor’s note to its fullest extent–today is my third day off and I will return back to work tomorrow.  My brain is ready to be back into the work mode, but I am not entirely sure that my body is. I also REALLY hate […]


Last night, on my NEW BED (but old mattress), I went to check my cell phone to see what time it was.  This is a normal turn of events, however last night, my neck decided to wrench, pull and do something extraordinarily unfair and hurtful.  I couldn’t move my head to the right, and a […]
