Squee is defined as a noise primarily made by a rabid fan girl. It originated with Anime. The term has expanded in the lexicon to express all encompassing, exciting news that makes one want to scream, squeal and bust out in happiness all at once. Very little, excepting shoes and dresses, makes me squee. Never… Continue reading Q & A: You Asked…We Answered

Success Without Panties…
Last night was the first big event with the new company. As PR Maven, my job is to make sure we look good, get great media coverage, and ensure our name is front and center. Check, check and check. Thank God no one knew I wasn't wearing panties. At least as far as I know.… Continue reading Success Without Panties…

Making Up For Lost Time…
The new job is cramping my style. There is little time for partying, lunching with girlfriends and studying what other girls are wearing. Although it requires dressing up as much as I like for every occasion; there are just so many of them. And so many days in a week. The hours leave little time… Continue reading Making Up For Lost Time…

And I Am Envious…
Adjustment is the only constant in the world of widowhood. It's not just figuring out car maintenance, garbage hauling and tree trimming. It's also the good. The good is the stuff of bittersweet memories and jealousy so deep and green that if cut, I would gush emerald. Last weekend brought it home again. Two steps… Continue reading And I Am Envious…

This spring, however, brings us most interesting news. Miss Anna, as in Wintour, yes the Devil of Prada fame, got a little promotion… Continue reading Fashionista Fantasies…
Lessons in Badassery
Got a new job. Finally. At the moment I went to sign the contract, the heavens opened and the angels sang. And a voice from deep inside said, "As God is my witness, I will never be hungry again." Oh Scarlett, dear, how would I get through a single day without you to comfort me?… Continue reading Lessons in Badassery
When in Doubt, Become Southern
The last time I got ditched for a guy I was twenty years old. It was at a frat house with a sorority sister who needed alone time with her hunk of the week. I thought, really? Just leave me here? I know some chicks go batshit at this behavior. Kind of a reverse bros… Continue reading When in Doubt, Become Southern
Meet Jackson Hole Carthy…
Adding new girlfriends to the mix is a hobby. Since I no longer have to rush home from work to cook for anyone or pick up socks, I can do pretty much whatever I please. On some days it seems I’ve been let out of the zoo for a free day. And I behave like… Continue reading Meet Jackson Hole Carthy…
