[Excerpt] From Real Life
As we sat on the deck, I was thinking of you the entire time.  Outwardly, I was at peace; inside, I was confused - I was trying to pinpoint my feelings toward you as we sat in silence.  All we could hear was the lake rustling in the wind and the fire crackling in the pit.  I could feel your eyes staring at me; I couldn’t look at you, my eyes staring intently at the ripples in the water. ...

Jingle Jangle
I have loose quarters stuck in the seams of my skirt.  And I can’t get them out.  I don’t know how they got in there, but now, anyone can hear when I am coming around the corner.

Fashion by Jersey Shore's own JWOWW →
For anyone that was wondering, my Jersey Shore nickname is C-Pow.  I like to say it with a fist pump for added emphasis.

Kristen Wiig really does do the best impression of Elisabeth Hasselbeck from The View.  I’ve never seen that show before and finally got a glimpse today.  The impression was spot on.  Well done!

The Difference Between Texas & Cali Boys...
Texas Boys Open Car Doors for Their Ladies.  California Boys Do Not. I know, it’s old fashion.  Even when I would go out on dates in Texas, in the back of my mind I would think, “I can open my own door; does he think I am an idiot?”  But as time went on, I really learned to appreciate it and even became accustomed to this behavior.  It showed good, old Southern hospitality....

Origins of xinanottina
@arkyem: Thank you for your interest in my name.  It’s funny you should ask the question, considering I was actually planning on explaining that very topic in a yet-to-be-written post.  So here you go - The Origins of Xinanottina My name is Christina. It’s not Chrissy, Christine, Chris, Tina, etc.  It’s Christina. Don’t get me wrong - I don’t mind nicknames,...

So That Sucks...
It’s pouring rain in Los Angeles right now.  Normally I enjoy this situation, given that it happens so infrequently.  However, my power just went out…. And my computer shut off…. The same computer that no longer has a battery…. So the story I was in the middle of writing just got deleted. Perhaps I will try to recreate it, however, it’s never the same. The energy...

I Heart PowerPoint
Seriously, I really enjoy using it.  It provides a creative outlet at my job.  I get to experiment with shapes and shadows and beveling - OH MY!  I am the go-to person at my company when anyone has a PPT question.  In fact, I even taught a seminar on short cuts/tricks to make your life a whole lot easier when using PPT.  Ever since I was little, I always had an eye for design and spacial...

To Text or Not To Text...
The Topic: Is it acceptable to text a girl to ask for a date? Methodology: I’ve had many conversations (arguments) with several guy friends regarding the courtship of ladies.  These are men I consider to fine upstanding, young gentlemen.  Stable careers, good-looking, funny, great personality, easy to get along with - all “good on paper” guys.  Have everything going for...

Excuses, Excuses...
It was the holidays.  I was traveling.  Work has been crazy.  My mom has been calling me a lot lately.  I was sick.  I don’t have an iphone.  My work blackberry broke.  My home computer is on the fritz.  It’s against company policy to blog during work hours…. Yadda. Yadda. Yadda. You may have noticed my hiatus - and although everything listed above is true - it’s just a...
