Naughty Princesses

Condition of the Month – February 2015

I was called for jury duty last week and it got me thinking, how important are laws to you? For this month’s COTM I’ve asked the princesses to think about their personal biases and how much they affect their upholding of the law. I hadn’t […]

Wait- did someone say ‘jobs’?

Dudes, you want to know something scary? I have started to think about… jobs. It’s a terrifying word, I know.   I’ve still got some time but I feel the scariness of job-hunting breathing down my neck; soon it will catch up with me. I […]

When Roommates Stop Being Friends

When Roommates Stop Being Friends

A few days ago my housemate got a dog without my consent. I’d been staying with my parents for a few days so when she called me Tuesday with the news that she’d brought a puppy home, I was shocked, especially as she guiltily excused […]

When Worldviews Collide

As an American living abroad, I have found myself in many situations in which views that I have held since birth are very much in the minority. Not only that, but the country I currently live in is known for having an absolutely heinous record […]

Am I Just Lucky?

Am I Just Lucky?

I’m not much of a gambler. In fact in the three times I’ve been to Vegas I think I’ve only gambled once, more or less breaking even on a ten dollar bill in a slot machine. I don’t mind playing the games – Cindy and […]

Alone Time

Alone Time

This week my husband is out of town for work, so I’m all alone in the house. This has happened before, but I always dread not having him here. Sleeping alone, coming home to an empty house, and worse—not knowing where he is or if […]

COTM November

COTM November

So, it is November already.  Oh wait, November is more than half over!  How did that happen?  Well here we have a (very late) edition of the condition of the month.  This month we all thought a bit about that dreaded affair: the high school […]

Five Things I’m Too Damn Sober For

Five Things I’m Too Damn Sober For

A while back both Cindy and Snow wrote posts on a few things they’re too old/young for (seriously, passive aggression is never good) and after having an eventful house party last weekend I have a list of my own I’d like to share. Here follows […]

One Year Older – Embracing the Unknown

One Year Older – Embracing the Unknown

It seems like everything always changes on my birthday. In my first year of college my birthday was the day that really solidified my friendship with the naughty princesses and made Seattle seem like home. On my birthday the year after I decided to apply […]
