I'm not entirely sure how long I've been following The Betches'...but it's been a while...pretty much before Twitter was cool (and it's not any more, so that should be a giveaway). So I'll start this off with admitting I may have a bit of bias. Then again, my bias doesn't really matter much because I Had … Continue reading A Betchy Book Review: I Had A Nice Time (And Other Lies)
Congrats, you've just become my next story. I feel like I should start saying something to that effect at the start of a date...or the end, if it's newsworthy: "Disclaimer, I might publish flattering/unflattering information about you to my blog...anonymously, of course." “You look like a student,” he said sitting down at my table. “Thanks,” … Continue reading 6.7.16
If you've been wondering why my posts have been more sporadic than usual lately, well, first off I'd like to apologize. I'm still writing, as always. Just not publishing. I've been a bit distracted lately because (thank God), I finally got a "real" job. That's right, I'm not relying on freelancing and brand ambassador-ing as … Continue reading hiatus happens.
First off, please excuse the grammar as far as punctuation goes in this article, as I am currently driving to Fort Worth. Don't worry, I'm not texting and driving. Not really. I'm just speaking into the phone...because, well, when inspiration hits...what can you do? So here's the thing that I hate most about this whole … Continue reading Just freaking text him.
Shave those goddamn legs...you can't keep living like this. Pretty sure it’d been about 2 weeks since I last shaved. Please don’t judge me. [ Don't worry. I actually did/wrote this several weeks ago and am now in recovery, on a regular shaving schedule. ] In my defense, I almost always wear jeans (whether I … Continue reading Do NOT Text Him#25
...Or just delete his number. Yep. I went there. Also totally jumped ahead because I'm a #bossbabe and I can. But you know what? Sometimes, you just have to do it. I looked in the mirror one day and wondered what the hell I was doing. There are tons of guys who would LOVE … Continue reading Do NOT Text Him #54
Clean your room...it needs to be done. That awkward moment when Elite Daily starts to sound like your mother... Anyways. I live in a studio apartment, so for me, cleaning my room means cleaning literally the entire unit. Which is slightly more than just cleaning your room as far as space…but a lot more in … Continue reading Do NOT Text Him #34 & #14 (yes, in that order)
Paint your nails...so you physically can't. Ugh. This is a hard one…because I have ADHD and don’t know how to sit still. Also, I’m a writer…so if my nails are wet, sure, it’s great that I can’t text…but I also can’t write or type or read, for that matter. And there are few things I … Continue reading Do NOT Text Him #3
Match with someone else on Tinder. Wait, ew. Sorry Elite Daily, you should probably check up on your dating apps. It’s all about Bumble now. Tinder may have spearheaded the “swipe right movement” but now, it’s just like some sketchy dive bar that only serves Budweiser and is packed with creeps smoking in the alley. … Continue reading Do NOT Text Him #1
Go to the gym without your phone…remember that iPod mini you have? This one was a tough, since I no longer have a music-only device; I had to think outside the box. I actually like the idea of going just about anywhere and leaving my phone behind, but how am I supposed to work out … Continue reading Do NOT Text Him #7
