I Fell Flat.

The Wishful Writer  Apr 02 09

My friend Penny is posting pictures about her adventures as a Flat Stanley caretaker.Her photos brought back a flood of memories. Many I'm not proud of. *Hangs Head.*For those of you who don't have a Flat Stanley clue...Flat Stanley is a paper boy (or girl), created by elementary students nationwide. The school assignment is to send Flat Stanley, along with a journal, off to visit a friend or a family member for a few days. Creative "hosts" send Flat Stanley back to the student with pictures, souvenirs, stories and reminders of the visit.Penny owns a Dragon Boat Racing company, so her Flat Stanley is all prepared to tear it up on the water.

I can't believe I'm going to post these photos from last night's White Trash Party.In fact, I'm betting most of my friends will likely kill me and never hang out with me again once they realize I'm really sharing these atrocities with the world.

Ketchn' Up.

The Wishful Writer  Nov 01 09

Oy. Has it been more than a week?!Somewhere in between work, deciding to paint our bedroom in two days (hi cathedral ceilings), planning a kick-ass cabin trip for 20 crazy women over the Halloween weekend, preparing to receive new bedroom furniture, drinking copious amounts of Diet Coke and packing to head to Atlanta (again), the week totally got away from me.
