As of today, I officially moved into Geoff’s house. When I tell friends this, they usually respond with, “Wow! Taking the big step! Are you excited or nervous?” Because I feel neither, it confuses me when my friends ask this, but I guess it is a legitimate question. Moving into a boyfriend’s house is a [...]

How To Stop Worrying
I’ve written a few times on Hipstercrite about how going freelance has improved my career confidence and has been mentally rewarding. I’ve jokingly talked about how going freelance has made it difficult for me to remember to change my underwear or socialize with humans and not feral cats.

I Believe in a Thing Called Love, Just Listen to the Rhythm of My Heart
Yesterday I took a big chance. I wrote an article about my boyfriend on CultureMap- which gets way more traffic than my blog does. I often find it difficult to write long posts, but I found myself able to nearly write a book about my boyfriend. The post, titled “Do You Believe in All the [...]
