Gift #6: General Conference

Okay, today I did a video instead. Creating a video is a lot like singing Beyonce's "Halo"- it sounds effortless...until you actually try it out yourself. At least my lipstick looked great!

So, I know that artists shouldn't use disclaimers, but I'm not an artist. I'm a writer. So I claim whatever I want..if I have the evidence to back it up. Unless I'm Donald Trump.

Disclaimer: I'm sorry for saying "umm" so many times and for looking away from the camera so many times. Also, I was exhausted, not indifferent when I filmed this. #unscripted

Enjoy!

Marriage, Tornadoes, Chocolate, and Other Buzzwords

I’m surprised Child Protective Services hasn’t taken custody of my blog yet, given how much I neglect it. But you know what they say, absent parents make for interesting adults. (Wow, that was kind of dark.) Let’s lighten things up. I got married last month! Some of you already know this, but to others, this is breaking news. I think it’s because Facebook didn’t say I was married until a few days ago. And if it’s not on Facebook, it never happened. Existential social media discussions aside, this post is a comprehensive update of my life today. You’ll get the inside scoop on my current whereabouts, my favorite podcasts, desired pastimes–everything you need to know to hack my passwords. I know, I know, that’s what journals are for. But most days I can barely read my own handwriting. And if I want my post-cursive posterity to know me in this Year of the Dog, I must leave an online record. GRANESSABAMA Granessabama is the name of this new chapter in my life and pot...

Help Wanted

When you think about what it would like to be rich, REALLY rich, you probably think about rolling out in your new Maserati or turning a guest room into a second closet, OR even the fact that you could literally roll around in dollar bills- $100 DOLLAR BILLS. While this is all fine and good and sufficiently over-the-top, what I want the most is an assistant. (Let's face it, you're usually making bank if you have an assistant.) Now, why do I need an assistant? Why do I want one? My reasons shall be revealed. (Speaking of Maserati, that's part of the title of one of my sister's songs. Check it out.) https://soundcloud.com/alyce-marie/maserati-body-alyce-marie-ft 1. I'm bad with breakfast. I like eating, I really do. But during the school year, I rarely eat breakfast...or lunch. At night, I'm too tired to prepare a lunch. In the morning, I usually wake up 15 minutes before I leave for school/seminary, so...still no time. I just want an assistant to ...

Channeling Charleston Day #5: High Society Saturday

Every Saturday during the spring and summer months, there is Farmer's Market in Marion Square. This place was PACKED. I felt like I was in a high school hallway again. *shudder* When I thought farmer's market, I thought there would just be a lot of fruit and vegetables. But it was so much more. There was a lot more food as well as a lot of art work for sale. I bought a lentil and pesto empanada. YUM! Empanadas are Argentine, by the way, not Mexican, so lentils are acceptable. There was also entertainment. FREE entertainment. I watched a magic show for kids, but I thoroughly enjoyed it as well. How do they do it? Maybe I'll do a blog post exposing magic tricks. Hmm... On my way to my second historical house tour in Charleston, I bought these: Roses made out of.....something. These roses have quite an interesting story. Poor kids, or kids that wanted to make money, would sell these all over Charleston. However, the Police started hassling the kids about selling...
