Mr. R-my fiancé, better half, best friend, and biggest fan-has always been a very upfront, straightforward man; the strong and silent type, if you will. On our very first date, for instance, he not only told me his best friend at the time was female, but also warned if this truth was going to be a […]

We all want the easy streets in life.Like the roads that go on for miles without a cloud in the sky, and have no bumps or delays in the way. We like to see wide open spaces for possibility and adventure, and to never foresee a sharp curve ahead or a car in front of […]

I’ve mentioned before that Will is in law school. When we first discussed law school it was almost a last resort for Will.  He has always dreamed of joining the CIA or Foreign Service, and even took the exam and passed.  However, in one of the later rounds he was turned down. So, having graduated with a […]

Luckily, thanks to the invention of the ever-useful Internet, she no longer has […]

There are never enough hours in the day, and yet we count down the minutes until we can finally get some rest. We wish we could save more money, but splurge when we pass a fashionably-decorated sale window. We work every single day to get off that stubborn five pounds, but when asked if we […]

Like every other girl, you will have all kinds of crushes through the years, but the most complicated crush ever will be the one you develop on the “untouchable” lover.
You know, the guy who is a major heartbreaker without even knowing he is. He’s that guy who is inhumanly beautiful and implausibly nice, irresistible and, go […]

The single most asked question you will encounter after your wedding is “So how’s married life?” To which you will respond, “Life is absolutely perfect! We never fight anymore, all of our financial troubles have been solved, in fact all of our problems period, have just vanished. It’s absolute bliss!”
