One of the first things that went through my very jet-lagged and disorientated brain after arriving in London and taking a mini-cab ride from Gatwick Airport to North London (1.5 hour journey...ugh) was that I would never drive in London. It wasn't so much the driving on the other side of the road or right… Continue reading Adventures Underground…(well sort of)
Author: Jami
I love words; I believe they have power. I have a passion for telling stories. Fact or fiction, it doesn’t matter.
On the more technical side of things, I have an undergraduate degree in Technical Communications. This means I am trained to be a technical writer. I have been taught to take long and complicated pieces of information and shorten them up and make them readable/digestible to an audience. I also have a special and distracting knack for editing. Finally, I hold a Masters in Marketing Management. Combining these two degrees, I now work as a B2B martech content writer.
WHAT?!? London? I Didn’t See That Coming!
The title of this entry is courtesy of an email I received after telling a friend I had moved. I didn't really see it coming either, but it's true...I live in London. Well, at least for the time being. I want it to be a permanent move but that's not completely up to me. I… Continue reading WHAT?!? London? I Didn’t See That Coming!
It’s Back
I've been kicking around the idea of starting this blog back up for a few weeks now. It's been almost two years since I've bothered to post anything. It's not because I haven't had anything to say. I always have something to say. Things rattle around in my brain constantly...it makes for difficulties sleeping sometimes.A… Continue reading It’s Back
Another Tragedy
Note: I originally hand wrote this post yesterday, December 14, 2012, while everything was fresh. I held it and let it sit with me. There are a few edits just to keep it up to date but it's how I felt as the news was coming in. I debated starting over but, even if it's… Continue reading Another Tragedy
New Blog…Different Station
I'm in final stretch of completing my degree in Technical Communications. One the classes I'm currently taking requires that we start a professional blog. Let me explain.... This blog is considered a "personal" blog since I can pretty much blather on about anything and no one (hopefully) thinks I'm an expert. This new blog is supposed… Continue reading New Blog…Different Station
Seeking….
Sunday morning I decided to check out one of the new summer movies. I am not much of a movie goer. I’m kind of cheap when it comes to movies only because I figure there are other things I can spend my money on. Think of it this way…if I skip going to the movies… Continue reading Seeking….
Summer (in the desert)
*This is for my friend who sent me a message on Facebook yesterday suggesting I write something here. For some reason she enjoys reading what I have to say and she thought it might get me out of the funk I've been in the past week or so. So this is for her, she knows… Continue reading Summer (in the desert)
Sweet 16
My sweet blonde child turned sixteen on Wednesday. It's cliché to say but the time has really flown by. It seemed like just yesterday that she was cute and little and running around the house in diapers chattering to herself. Now she's taller than me and a beautiful, smart, and funny young woman who is old… Continue reading Sweet 16
Long Time No See
It's been at least 8 months since I've written here. It's funny since I made a little pact to myself to write here at least once a week last year. This is why I don't make New Year's resolutions...I never keep them. Something always happens. It's all good though. I'm not going to beat myself… Continue reading Long Time No See
Runner’s High
Yesterday a good friend of mine posted on Facebook that she had not achieved a runner's high that everyone talks about and that running "still sucked." As a woman who just recently became okay with calling herself a runner I totally understood my friend's post. I thought back and realized that I hadn't ever experienced… Continue reading Runner’s High
