always sassy, never abridged
Some of you might disagree, and that is fine. I can already feel the weird, misguided comments coming from those that are either going to skim this post or look at the title and draw their own false conclusions. But at the end of this day, this is still my blog where I can post…

I am by no means a professional blogger. I don't do the whole photoshoot for every blog post thing, and I snap selfies and upload them all the time! I am unabashedly honest and candid, and love cheese fries and spicy chips. And I have always been honest and kept it real--and this makes blogging…
Dear Chrissey, There's this boy that I have feelings for. I thought that he had feelings for me (and he certainly acts like it!), but he told me that he has feelings for another girl. And then another. I keep trying to move on but he keeps flirting with me and acting like he's interested…

Essentially, what happens is Jane assumes the role of the universe in order to prove that her crazy idea worked (she used it to get Brad, apparently). She starts making things on Penny's board come true, in…
My friend Charlotte recently wrote a post on embarrassment and how hard it can be to "come out" with your blogging. I could not stop thinking about how hard it was for me to share my blogging with my friends and loved ones. And then I thought to myself, "I wonder how many other people…
I feel like when you blog about things, you prove your credibility in other ways. Often through successful writing, recommendations, or results. Something along those lines. But I swear to you all, boyfriend or no boyfriend, when I write about relationships I know what I'm talking about (if you went on the dates I've been…
