I'm Back - No Thanks To Delta and KLM

I'm Back - No Thanks To Delta and KLM

I'm back!!

And by back I mean both in the country and back at it with blogging! Exciting, eh? Have you missed me?

Let me begin by saying I'm sorry for my lack of content over the last few weeks. I went on vacation and promised myself that I would be 100% present with Ethan and in Scotland while I was away. Then, when I returned state-side, Ethan I both caught a post-travel cold that knocked us both out for over a week. Ugh. But now that I've recovered, I can happily report that I have a whole list of exciting things coming your way, so buckle up.

14 Non-Verbal Ways They Show You They Love You

As many of you know, I live with my boyfriend, Ethan. We’ve been living in our cute little apartment together in Eastern Michigan for about 6 months now and wowza has it been a wild ride.

In so many ways, he is the perfect roommate. He’s tidy, he’s quiet, and I adore him, so cuddling and watching tv on the couch on weeknights is the best thing ever.

I Might Be 25, But On My Birthday I Felt 16 Again.

I Might Be 25, But On My Birthday I Felt 16 Again.

I’ve lived 25 long years. I can’t believe it.

I’ve never been one to think on my birthday too much, but for some reason, this birthday has really got me taking a deeper look into my life. I can’t believe that I’ve lived a quarter of a century. I honestly feel old - I know everyone says that, but for me, I officially can say it’s true.

I Guess I’ll Have to Find a New City to Call America’s Armpit.

I Guess I’ll Have to Find a New City to Call America’s Armpit.

One Friday afternoon, Ethan said to me, “let’s go to Cleveland”. No offense to Clevelanders out there, but without hesitation, my exact response was, “ew, why?”

A Haunting Halloween at The Whitney Mansion

I love everything about Halloween - the mounds of sugary candy, the extravagant decorations, and the avant-garde costumes! It’s all just extra AF. I can barely contain my excitement for October 31st to roll around. I started decorating our apartment with haunted purple and orange trees and wreaths with lights and ghosts in early September!

10 Words of Wisdom From One Long Distance Relationship to Another

"Long distance doesn't work," they say. "Long distance relationships won't last," they say. "There's no way to make sure they're being faithful and honest when you're so far away," they say. "It's like being single, but lonelier," they say. Well, I don't know who this they is, but they can take their false information and shove it.
