[tweetmeme source=”elizabethev” only_single=false] I never considered myself particularly competitive. Sure, I’ve cheated at the occasional game of Slap (the card game, not the physical act of violence) and Scrabble with the intention of racking up a few more points, but I’ve never terribly minded losing. …

Today: Hi, October.
[tweetmeme source=”elizabethev” only_single=false] Wha chu doin’ here so soon? And why have I written September 30th on three different checks today? If the old adage is true, and time really does fly when you’re having fun, it’ll soon be November. And shortly thereafter, Santa Claus…

[tweetmeme source=”elizabethev” only_single=false] I am fairly certain I’ve mentioned before my dreams of becoming a detective, or even just a regular officer of the law. The thing is, I like working regular hours and I don’t think I’d ever want to walk around with a…

Today: (Comfort) Zone out.
[tweetmeme source=”elizabethev” only_single=false] I probably live 97.2% of my life squarely in the Comfort Zone. Outside of my professional duties, which require me to be pleasant and approachable, outgoing and normal, I am not a social risk taker. I fear the unknown almost as much…
