It’s a fresh winter hell out there. Yes, I stole that phrase directly from Wayne. But you have to admit, it paints a picture. The truth is, if you are Amy G. and you are wearing tights under your pants and your boots of course and your extra warm scarf, you know, the one that [...]

Looks like I’ve got options

Well first of all, I’d like to take this time to advocate the Meyers Briggs Personality test. I took it on a whim yesterday and it was eerily correct. I am a INFP. Which means, basically, that if I am not careful I could end up being the crazy lady who lives in a dilapidated [...]

Well, for one thing, I started reading The Neverending Story, as recommended to me over and over again by Joe and Wayne. I am currently on page 20, that’s about 15 minutes of progress or so (lunch, yesterday) and already I found a quote that I think speaks volumes about my childhood. Hahaha. Also, I [...]

To start, a short list of things that are Very Common that seem Very Unique and Even Worth Talking About when they are happening to you:
1. For boys, growing a beard. I find that every single guy who has grown one talks incessently about how much it itches for like two weeks.
2. Growing out your bangs. Ditto, [...]

This morning, I stopped at one of my favorite places in Merchandise Mart… it’s called Foodstuffs. I like Foodstuffs because they give me a big Chinese Food Box filled with Smart Start Cereal, fresh strawberries, bananas, and almonds and a cup of skim milk to add later. Yum, right? And I can also get coffee [...]
Excuse me I have to dust off the blogging part of my brain

Hi. Haven’t updated in a little while. I guess it is because I’m too boring. I think to myself, “What should I write about today? Coffee? My nailpolish? The weather?” and then I realize that maybe maybe that’s been done. Right here. At Storytimewithamy, maybe I’ve written about that before. I’m just not that interested [...]
Maybe I’ll light some candles, too.

Ugh. My wisdom teeth are hurting. All five of them, I think.
So yesterday I was handed a golden ticket to Jokes For The Day, and it was the cougar. Oh Cougar! Bless you for offering me a day of anecdotes and one-liners. I really needed that. Yesterday was Cougar Joke Day. I celebrated primarily on facebook [...]
Some aspirations and I’m sorry about Holy Week

I spend the majority of my life setting new goals and then sort of aiming to accomplish them. Like, “crochet this!” and then I go out and buy yarn and then maybe I set aside some time, or I learn new stitches. I don’t always achieve my goals. But I achieve lots of things along [...]
The reading nook from my childhood dreams
Posted in adventure, aspirations, books, drinking coffee, writing on January 11, 2008 | 3 Comments »
So on Wednesday I had an epiphany. My master plan for last year (Phase One) was that I stayed after work for one hour every day to write on my laptop in Starbucks. Which was amazing for my productivity. Not so amazing for my budget. Especially since I can’t really drink coffee at night, so [...]
