With A Little Help From My Friends

Friendship is a wonderful gift. I have great friends … specifically I have great girlfriends. It seems that my college girlfriends are the closest type of friendships – we became the people we are today because of those friendships. We grew together and became sisters, if I can get away with that much Southern gooey sweetness. We are blunt with each other, brutally honest at times, but never…

My Personal Celebration of Women's History

Celebrating the Women Who Made Me

It’s March. It’s Women’s History Month. And when we began discussing fabulous historical females here at #AIBC, I kept hitting walls. I was never that great at historical timelines and dates… I cannot tell you who the 17th President of the United States (or any of the others for that matter) was. I’m better at recognizing the voice of a singer about 10…

Blood On Your Hands?

One Click Can Ruin Your Life. Is There Blood On Your Hands?

You know, I don’t think I’ve ever encountered, in the history of the internet, a human being more stupid than you.

I’m not sure why your mother didn’t originally abort you, much less why she hasn’t killed you yet. I guess she’s just a coward like her daughter.

why don’t you just do the world a favor and drink some bleach?

Everyone would be better off if you died. Did you really think you’d…

Why I'm Not Thrilled With Women's History Month

Why I’m Not Thrilled With Women’s History Month

Before I begin this blog, please know that I’m already perfectly aware that I’m in the minority and that there are going to be plenty of people who think I’m an idiot. Well, GUESS WHAT?!?! I AM AN IDIOT! But, I’m an idiot with an opinion and a platform, so I’m going to use it. As Flannery O’Connor once said, “I don’t deserve any credit for turning the other cheek as my tongue is always in…

Top 10 Things to Say When Judged for Wearing White

Top 10 Things to Say When Judged for Wearing White After Labor Day

White after Labor Day is such a controversial fashion rule. Some swear by it and some have long denounced it, but the truth still stands that regular old Suzy Nobody’s are judged by it. No one really knows why we can’t wear whitebetween Labor Day and Easter. And being that there is no rock solid purpose for this rule compounded by the heat of the South, I decided to compile a a Top Ten list…

Flying high: Don't be a menace in the skies

Flying high: Don’t be a menace in the skies

After yet another work trip, I’m reminded again of all the things people do that drive me crazy on a flight.

I don’t mind the crying babies. I usually don’t mind being delayed. I don’t mind the people who “spill over” their airline seat. I don’t battle for an armrest. I don’t start a fight with the person in front of me when they crush my legs by “reclining,” if that’s what you call it. I don’t…

Be Less Horrible to One Another

Be Less Horrible to One Another #ChooseLove

No… it isn’t the 2014 version of Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey, but it could be.

The past 5 days have pulled me all over the country with the news of insane bills and potential laws that are, at their core, new ways for us to be horrible to each other. The past 5 days have brought tears to my eyes, broken my heart, and given me renewed hope for the future all at the same time. The past 5 days…
