I have to be honest. My book club is awesome. Said awesomeness is due entirely to the group of amazing, creative, bright, thoughtful women who I’m grateful to call friends and fellow bookies. But it is also due to the oh-so-official traditions that govern our little monthly get-togethers. Hours...
What to do when your friend texts late at night with news that: a) she just scored super-hard-to-get tickets to an AFI Festival Hollywood film premiere (just seven days away) b) and that said film is a true story about an inspiring, courageous team of Navy SEALs c) and that...
It’s Stitch Fix time again! Clearly, I’m running about a week behind sharing my October “fix” in November. But hey, better late than never. :) I’d say my October Stitch Fix was mildly successful. All of my clothes fit this time (yay!). But strangely, there were hardly any warm clothes...
Oh my goodness. I’m going to stop making promises about getting these posts published in a timely manner. Life seems to have been crazy since I posted my list of 10 Things NOT To Say To Single People. But I’m finally back as promised with a follow-up post for...
Ok, back to this conversation of being single! Today I’m tapping into my inner Clinton Kelly, and am going to give you my conversational “makeover” tips on what not to say to single people. Oh baby, do I have some experience with this one. I think I have heard just...

Happy First Day of Autumn Eve, everyone! I’m getting ready to take off on a camping trip with my book club in a few hours, but thought I’d pop in a quick “Currently” post before I head out. This month has definitely been a great one, I think in...
First of all, I want to say a huge thank you to everyone who read my 30 and Single post. I had NO idea that so many people would be interested in tuning in (and chiming in) on the topic. Nor did I honestly consider the possibility that you...
(Taptaptap. Ahem, is this thing on?) Hi. My name is Ali, and I am 30 years old and single. And call me crazy, but I’ve decided to blog about it.
Ok, I couldn’t resist doing one more post on Friday Night Lights. Today we’re talking FNL trivia! Since I watched the show on Netflix, I didn’t get the chance to see all of the bonus footage and interviews on the DVDs, which is always a “must” after I finish...
I have now officially joined the ranks of the thousands of Friday Night Lights fans who binge-watched this show in a matter of weeks. Unfortunately, this happened for me years after the show went off the air, and I’m bummed that I wasn’t able to contribute to the ratings...
I hope you all had a wonderful Labor Day weekend — free of laboring, and full of fun! Mine ended up being a full and wonderful weekend. And with the exception of a few hours spent on a freelancing project that I forgot about (oops), it was blissfully free...
