There are only a couple of hours left in the old year. I’m celebrating in true Megan fashion. I’m going to bed. I thought about taking a moment with you to  consider the past year and all I have done and become and gained. But now is not the time for such things. It is…

I got my flu shot yesterday. There were tears. I don’t do well with needles. From where I was sitting, the pharmacist did a stellar job, though the parents did say I had him a little worried. I do okay until they start prepping my arm. I start falling apart rather rapidly at that point.…

I bought a new pair of pants. It was the cheapest pair of pants I could get away with. Consequently, there were some features I wasn’t quite pleased with, like the “distressing” which really meant a couple of holes. So  I patched up the holes with fuzzy, heart-patterned flannel. Yup, that just happened. The best…

It’s barely been two weeks since my oral defense. What a relief it would be to be done, I thought. Maybe for the first week it was a relief and I think maybe it still is, but I must be addicted to learning. In the past week I’ve discovered that it will take me until…

I made biscuits and fried potatoes with onions for breakfast. Comfort food. I struggle with breakfast. It’s rare that I eat something for breakfast that I really love like I love fried potatoes and biscuits. I don’t think it’s possible to have a bad day when you eat biscuits and fried potatoes for breakfast. It’s…

This is my favorite time of year. Thanksgiving is almost better than Christmas. Food and family without all the  stress inherent in Christmas. Why is stress an inherent part of Christmas? I hereby swear not to allow stress to overwhelm my holidays. Should be easy. My oral defense is later this week. Everything else will…

I’m delicate. Really delicate. I work hard to maintain a physical and mental equilibrium and just about anything can tip me over the edge. If I’m physically uncomfortable for any amount of time I’m liable to throw up. I’m pretty sure that’s why running 5ks makes me feel so ill. My body isn’t used to…

This is what I did this morning. Can you spot me? Apparently they occasionally sneak pictures and post them on social networking sites for all the world to see. Fabulous Anna and I have been rather faithful as of late. Don’t be too impressed. At the end of class with our bodies sinking into the…

I love apples. I love love love apples. Gala, Fuji, Golden Delicious, Jonagold, Pink Lady, Cameo. An apple day often isn’t nearly enough. I recently checked this book out from the library. I’m in love. I plan to purchase a copy soon that I can keep forever and always. There is so much  to know…

I’m in love with the way I smell today. A strange thing maybe, but smells are important to me, and the way I smell is particularly important. I’m obsessed with chewing gum, not because I love gum but because I will not be caught with bad breath. I got out a new bar of soap…
