Girls Night Out

Husbands stayed back and watched the kiddos, the soundtrack was a-blasting in the car, and we were ready for some hot vampire action. We stopped by the store first, grabbing some drinks and candy to […]

Flaps Up!


This morning Taylor and I caught the early showing of Madagascar 2. The pilot penguins totally make the movie! From the “Flaps Up!” comment, to the union contract representative (“No maternity leave!”), you may catch yourself laughing so hard your eyes tear up….it happened for Taylor. I recommend this for the whole family, especially those […]

Mutually Beneficial


Yesterday I had my interview at Emory. I hate to get my hopes up prematurely, but I really think I’ve got the job. I was impressed by the people that I met with, had comments ranging from acceptable-to-stunning for every question, had a lot in common with the interviewers, and just had a good gut […]
