Finding my mother again

Those of you who know me know that my mother and I are quite close. Upon reading a title like Finding my mother, your first reaction is probably “I didn’t know you’d lost her.”  Well, neither did I.  Or, to be more precise, until this weekend I didn’t realize quite how close I had come …

The first boy who touched my breasts

(Yes, the title is entirely accurate and I also promise this post is completely PG-13. 🙂 )

When it came to dating and sex, I was a very slow starter.  By the time I went to college, I’d kissed a boy but that was it. My freshman year I had two dates – one was …

Releasing the chains

On Sunday morning, I had 3 or 4 really happy hours. Normally I wouldn’t think that was so unusual, but they’re the first truly carefree hours I’ve had since the breakup. I think it means that I’m starting to round the bend.  Which brings me to an uncomfortable confession.

When I wrote last week about …

Apparently I’m going to hell

Last night a man told me that I am going to hell because I haven’t accepted Jesus as my personal savior.

And thus began my re-entry into the world of socializing with the opposite sex.

Let me back up a bit and give you the context for this particular delight.

Early last summer, I was …

Is the buzzing in my head bothering you?

Today I went to lunch with a new friend – someone I’ve been wanting to get to know for a while, but our schedules hadn’t matched up until today. The beginning of our meeting was hilarious – the restaurant we were going to meet at was closed, she had trouble finding a space to park …

The teddy bear

I’m having a hard time settling myself to write tonight.  Perhaps it’s because I just came from a writing group so I’m a little hyped up, and also a little written-out.

At the writing group we wrote about our favorite toys.  The obvious choice for me was my teddy bear, Rachel.  I got her on …

Momentary Times

This weekend I visited my friend Dan who lives on the seacoast of New Hampshire.  The fact that the ocean is a 30-second walk from his front door made the adventure extra appealing. 🙂

Dan and I have been friends for about six years.  He has seen me through some really hard times and some …
