Female Friends Spend Raucous Night Validating The... →
As the women moved from one bar to the next, the evening reportedly only grew more and more wild, with the friends telling one another whatever they needed to hear regarding callous comments made by boyfriends, deteriorating relationships with family members, pet deaths, or frustrating new haircuts. This is so dead on, especially with my Nashville friends. Sometimes I have to stop myself from...

Matt might get a coonhound on Saturday.
Specifically, this coonhound.  Last fall, Matt and I found a redbone coonhound breeder online with the motto, “A puppy and Jesus can lick anything.” I don’t know what we googled that got us there. Since then, Matt’s been learning more and more about coonhounds. He decided that one day he wanted a black and tan coonhound, and that he wanted to name it Duke. It always...

I’m pretty wiped from sitting in the passenger seat and napping, so here’s a brief recap.  -Saturday morning, we watched a few episodes of Lizard Lick Towing with Dad. He loves all shows about law enforcement, dangerous jobs, and rednecks. The reality show got really real really...

Happy 2nd anniversary!
Matt and I were watching The Bachelor on Friday night. Bachelor Ben was having a romantic solo date with one of the interchangeable ladies, and he leaned over and whispered, “You’re the most beautiful girl on the beach.” The beach was deserted. In unison, without even looking at each other, Matt and I sang, “Depending on the beach, ooooh.” As long as we have TV, we...
