I kind of love the Timehop app. It lets me look back at the things that I've tweeted and posted to Facebook in years past and reminds me of how hilarious I am. Yes, I do laugh at my own jokes. Deal with it. Anyway, today, Timehop reminded me that, a year ago, I live-tweeted … Continue reading That Time I Live-Tweeted The Little Mermaid

Stand Up
Remember a few weeks ago when I came to the blogging community for advice? I was about to take the stage as part of the entertainment for a thing with a group from my church. And I had no idea what I would actually be doing. I settled on a stand-up comedy routine. And Kristen … Continue reading Stand Up

A Dater’s Guide to Disney Princesses: Moana
And now we come to Disney's newest princess: Moana. This one is still really new, so if you haven't seen her movie yet, spoiler alert. Moana is the daughter of the chief of a village on an island in the Pacific. Which, to me, doesn't scream princess. But, if Pocahontas counts, then so does Moana. … Continue reading A Dater’s Guide to Disney Princesses: Moana
Flying to Florida
This morning, I began a journey. It began in my home of Blacksburg, Virginia. It ended in Orlando, Florida. A lot has happened today. As I write these words, it's late at night and I have, at this point, been awake for about 20 hours. I've had longer stretches without sleep. But sleep is calling … Continue reading Flying to Florida

A Dater’s Guide to Disney Princesses: Elsa
I know. Elsa is not a princess. Once we hit the second act of Frozen, Elsa makes it through the coronation ceremony and becomes a queen. She's only a princess for the first 15 minutes of the movie. She is not included on Disney's official list of princesses, nor is her sister, Anna. As a … Continue reading A Dater’s Guide to Disney Princesses: Elsa
A Dater’s Guide to Disney Princesses: Merida
Merida is the only character to come from a Pixar film to be named an official Disney Princess. Though she is not the only Pixar princess. Remember A Bug's Life? That film featured Princess Atta and her younger sister, Dot, who I suppose would also be a princess. I did not include them on my … Continue reading A Dater’s Guide to Disney Princesses: Merida

Poor girl... She lived a sheltered life until she was 18. She was locked away in a tower for "her own good." The woman that raised her kept her away from the world because it wouldn't be safe for her if people knew about the magical properties that her hair possessed. The truth of the … Continue reading A Dater’s Guide to Disney Princesses: Rapunzel
