To Do List, To Do List, To Do List!
Me: I have so much to do! I need to make a list.
Crystal: Lists have become my best friend. I have a little sticky note pad on the counter.

I’ve been super anti-social this past week, partly due to work, partly due to my disdain for being so accessible. It’s of my own doing of course. I’m a child of the social media age and I loves it.

Mama: Okay okay just asking.

Megan: The Slacker
Anyone who has dared to venture out on a non-traditional career path will identify with this post.
My parents think I’m a slacker. I started my own business 18 months ago and have been pursuing it full time since January, after my unceremonious departure from Corporate America. (Being a young, single mom doesn’t help my case any.)
Don’t get me wrong, my parents are...

I’m sitting in my bedroom and I happened to hear a paid political TV advertisement of current Texas Governor Rick Perry going on in the other room. He is running for re-election and this is what he had to say regarding meeting President Obama at the runway of an airport not too long ago…
