Trouver ma Vie: My Souvenir
http://elleemsee.blogspot.com/2014/04/my-souvenir.html
Some people buy t-shirts, others buy shot glasses or spoons. I break bones. My own bones, not other people's. Yet But, I digress. Yes, I fractured my os peroneum in the peroneus longus of my right foot. It's a teeny tiny bone - about the size of a BB - inside of one of the tendons in your foot. These are not my x-rays, but here we go; this is what the os peroneum should look like, and where it is located:. Here's a fractured one:. At least I fractured it AFTER we walked across the Brooklyn Bridge.

Trouver ma Vie: February 2014
http://elleemsee.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
We took family pictures for the first time since all of my siblings got married - it was exciting! Me and my grandparents. Josh, Karissa, and Elijah. Dan, Ashley, Hannah, Rachel, and Naomi. Jereme, Christy, and nephew #2. Rachel, Naomi, Hannah, and Elijah. The munchkins above. Aren't they adorable? We were able to have everyone together in California for Christmas! It was crowded, but so incredibly special. I'm getting a SECOND NEPHEW in like 2 weeks! I got to play in snow this week!

Trouver ma Vie: June 2014

If you don't like my nerdy posts, or when I make a big deal out of absolutely nothing, look away now. So, yesterday, B&N had this thing going on their Twitter where they were asking for the best book quotes that they ignored in their recent blog post and for some stupid reason, they forgot this amazing one from Christopher Paolini, the author of the Eragon series:. It's been one of my favorites since I first read Eragon. And it makes me pause and think each time I re-read Eragon. I've been in a very funk...

Trouver ma Vie: Is it Genetics, or Something More?
http://elleemsee.blogspot.com/2014/04/is-it-genetics-or-something-more.html
Is it Genetics, or Something More? Sometimes, I think the people in my family are a little too similar (in the best way possible). If you know me, you know I'm OCD. Everything has its place and I know when something is the least bit not in order. I am not alone in this - oh, no! My sister, mom, and Jereme all have the same glorious abilities. This text conversation with my sister was a friendly reminder that, even though we've been apart for too long (in my humble opinion), we've still got it:. So the ot...

Trouver ma Vie: And Suddenly...
http://elleemsee.blogspot.com/2013/10/and-suddenly.html
I was having such a crummy day. On a whim, I turned on Glee (I'm part-way through a Netflix marathon, but I haven't watched for almost 2 weeks) and what should I come across, but this beauty. I was actually laughing with sheer joy when I saw it in the show. Why do I love it so much? 1 One of my favorite musicals is My Fair Lady. 2 They turned a fantastically uppity, British song into faux-grunge rock. I love grunge. 3 Two words: Noah. Puckerman. 4 The song came out of nowhere in the episode.

Home, Sweet Home. Would y'all like a tour of my place? For the record, I haven't heard anyone here say "y'all".). If you want to see the grounds or the exterior, check it out here. My apartment is on the second floor, but the stairs are inside my apartment, which is actually kind of nice. There's a french patio outside with a few stairs and a porch - it's cute! When you come up the stairs, you come to the dining room and living room - see my balcony? So there you go. So far I'm loving Houston. It's h...

Trouver ma Vie: Benjamin Daniel
http://elleemsee.blogspot.com/2014/04/benjamin-daniel.html
I finally got to meet my newest nephew, Benjamin! Thank you, Jereme and Christy, for letting me commandeer your baby for a few days. He's a great little snuggler! My mom made his blessing outfit and it fit him PERFECTLY! And like all babies that I hold, he spent pretty much the entire time in my arms fast asleep so I couldn't see his eyes, thusly:. In case y'all forgot, I'm awesome. Here's proof, in the form of the present I got for Benjamin:. Finally, here are a few pictures from blessing day:. I'm 27 a...

Trouver ma Vie: January 2014
http://elleemsee.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
My Life is Weird. I don't really know how to explain this. I can't explain this. For some reason, people - ok, men; only men - tend to offer me very strange bits of [unsolicited] help when I most definitely do not need help. I don't generally think of myself as a damsel in distress type and when I need help, I ask for it (usually). But for some reason, this keeps happening to me and I find it .curious. Mostly because of what they offer. Is there anything I can do for you? WHAT DOES THAT EVEN MEAN? I was ...

Trouver ma Vie: Another One Bites the Dust
http://elleemsee.blogspot.com/2013/10/another-one-bites-dust.html
Another One Bites the Dust. Book, that is. Yes, folks, I'm a reading machine again. This time around, it was The Bone Season. By Samantha Shannon. It's to be the first in a seven book series and it just came out, like, a month ago. Which means, I get to wait yet another year. For yet another book. And to get another dose of Warden (and even then, it's iffy). Some quick calculations and we can suss out that I've read 3 books in the last 10 days. All while working overtime. No joke. IT'S GOOD TO BE BACK!

Trouver ma Vie: Funk
http://elleemsee.blogspot.com/2014/06/funk.html
I've been in a very funky mood for the last couple of weeks and I'm not entirely sure why. I didn't really even notice it until I saw that my Netflix recently-watched queue and pile of recently-watched DVDs looked like this:. Season 1-5 of Supernatural (AKA: the I-feel-sorry-for-Satan seasons). The Boy in the Striped Pajamas. The Perks of Being a Wallflower. Little Women (which makes me more violently angry than pretty much any other movie. Ever.). That's a few more pages of my book down. :). Hurricane s...
