If 2014 is even half as good, I'm in for a great year, but I have a feeling it's going to be even better!!

 

I just blue myself

Ah, life.

It seems that it likes to pile on everything at once, doesn't it? It's a pile of good things, but a pile nonetheless!

In the last couple of months I've bought a condo, participated in my biggest fundraiser of the year, performed my biggest role yet in a musical and was the maid of honour for my BFF's  wedding- all the while trying to keep up with my other life commitments and maintain some semblance of a social life without going insane! Whether that worked or not is up for debate...

Lots of big life changes happening meant the blog got put on the back burner for a while.

And speaking of changes.....

THIS HAPPENED

THIS HAPPENED

How could I resist being the SOMETHING BLUE for the wedding of my Hetero Life Partner?

Secretly -- I think it's here to stay.
