U-Tube Throwback: Prince ~ Nothing Compares 2 U

I absolutely love this song by Prince. Its amazing how songs can bring you back to a particular place in time with images so vivid you would think it was yesterday. What are some of your songs that trigger memories of love's past?

Un-Called for Absence

Time truly flies! Its something we never seem to have enough of, and yet on occasion, wish to rush. All the time that has lapsed since my last post, has been filled with some unimaginable highs and some unwarranted lows both professionally and personally. I haven't been writing not because of lack of content, but more of my loose grasp of this thing called time. Since August, I've interviewed for a job on the hill (didn't get it), met some interesting political players (lobbyists), and networked like I was running for VA Governor. After my month of trying to be a politico, I came to really appreciate my current job and all the perks I get for being a meeting planner. So in September, I headed to the Rockies in Colorado Springs for a conference and man did I have a blast! ~ after work, of course :-) Here's me at the Garden of the Gods.





After my meeting there, I had the blessing to join friends in Seattle, WA! I absolutely love this city. It has it all for the nature buffs: mountains, lakes, and even a beach :-) I loved the shops at Pike Place Market especially the flowers, fresh fruits, jewelry, and of course the infamous ...City Fish Company with the flying poultry, lol.



Seattle was great!

Back to DC I go, and then came the most glorious day of the me all... my birthday, Oct 2!!!




Sadly, my cakes didn't get its candles blown out, but I did celebrate nonetheless and headed to the club!



At 27, I'm reaching for the heavens and truly the sky is the limit! I'm loving and living life to the fullest!! So if you don't see posts on here often, its because I'm out here experiencing life and not merely posting my desires or observations:-)
