Caving: It’s a Dirty, Dangerous Sport. And it’s awesome

To a lot of people, the thought of crawling in the pitch black hundreds of feet below the earth doesn’t really sound appealing. Caving is a dirty, dangerous sport. And I love it.
I ventured out to Laurel Caverns in western Pennsylvania this past weekend for my first, but certainly not last, caving adventure. […]

Working Out…OUTside

I just froze my gym account. Why? Well, because it’s warm outside and I don’t need it. Why should I pay $70 a month to work out there when there’s so much to do outside?
I’ve got a huge array of outdoor exercise that I’ve taken on for the summer. If you […]

Birds of the Feather Flock Together

“Birds of the feather flock together” is a phrase my mother has repeated to me since I was a child. I used to hate her for this phrase. I used to accuse her of being judgmental and mean-spirited for judging my friends by the company that they kept. But now…well…now the story […]

The Unbearable Lightness Of Being: A Heavy, Must-Read

Jewelry can get expensive…especially really funky and unique jewelry. But screw that. Why not go through your old crap and make some awesome new stuff? It’s an awesome way to recycle things you no longer use, save money on your bling…and look cool doing it.
Just get your butt over to a craft […]

My All Time Favorite Drunk-cipes!

Eating is fun.
And eating is even MORE fun when you’re smashed.
That’s right. They tell us that alcohol impairs your judgment and ‘they’ are absolutely right.
How else do I explain the empty jar of peanut butter I found this morning next to my bed?
Ah, peanut butter.
You know, you don’t have to eat a jar of it […]

Before Summer Ends…Have Some Fun!

Well, the blisteringly glorious months of summer are upon us. Here we are, drenched in sweat and heat irritation, more concerned with our margaritas than all of the things we swore we’d be doing once summer came back when it was cold. Let it now be known; I am against this summertime laziness. […]
