Sooooooooo at my work, we just got our cubicles.
Needless to say, it's been like Design Star all up in hurrrr.
I've been picking out cute notepads, printing off my favorite pictures of Mannie and I, and collecting trinkets to display to make me oh-so happy while I'm tinkering away at work.
Meanwhile, other coworkers have caught the nesting bug as well. It's hard

In a past life, I am positive I was a vigilante.
My entire life as Hayley, I have been hell-bent on always helping the underdog, upholding justice, standing up for what is right and tearing down what's wrong. While this sounds really Joan-of-Arc-y and admirable, it usually just means I stir up trouble in lame minor situations and don't actually crusade for the mass

So, as you know, I am working full-time in an office setting now.
Answering phones, filing paperwork, tip-tapping away at the computer...
I mean, obviously there is more to it than that. But basically, when it comes down to it, it's just me in my cubicle with my headphones on, spaced out from 8-5.
Alllllso, as you may know, I am a horrific snacker. I am constantly

I am usually really good with directions.
And 99% of the time, really good with common sense.
So when my coworkers said there was this really cool and beautiful nature walk just down the street that wrapped around the building and could be easily walked during lunch, I was intrigued to get hiking.
My work BFF Layla and I had spotted some people walking the trail every

Oatmeal Cream Crack Pie
When I went to New York this past March, I fell in loooooove.
I loved the pigeons. I loved the scary furries in Times Square. I loved the sounds of the traffic. I loved the smells of the different foods. I loved the fashion. I loved the architecture. I loved the history. I loved the crowds. I loved the subway. I loved everything about it and more -- and if nothing

I know some of y'all think I'm perfect... but that couldn't be more from the truth (the perfect part or the part where people actually believe that junk).
Suuuuure, in person I am known to be quick on my feet, to blurt out witticisms left and right without pause. I'm actually quite eloquent like that if you don't pay attention to the fact that I cuss like a drunken

Since you're a human (or am I wrong for assuming you're a human?), you have probably had those days where everything is going wrong and you're a total klutz and a potential hazard to the community or yourself.
And I am here today to convince anyone bosses, HR folk, or right-minded people that those days need to be a legit excuse for sending an employee home.
Because on

For as long as I can remember, I have always wanted a best friend.
In elementary school, I would hop from group to group, trying so desperately to latch onto a girl and coerce her into a friendship with me. I would invite her over to play Barbies or swim every chance I could, and I would pass her notes in class and split my Gushers with her. That is, until she probably

Six Layer Oatmeal Biscoff Cookie Bars
When I was a wee little girl, I loved taking those stupid quizzes in teeny-bopper magazines. You know, the ones like: Will your crush ask you out? or Decode your personality based on your bangs! or dumb stuff like that. But oh my god, they were SOOOO accurate and believable to a little girl following a weirdly sketched diagram or adding up Bs. If I learned anything from

Since I've been single, I have been having THE WORST luck with guys EVER.
I've given a couple guys my number and they haven't called. I would chalk it up to some Cosmo-esque "dating mind game" thingie, but it's been like 3 months and I'm pretty sure they would have called by now, or this is an exceptionally long game/method of torture.
And I've tried just talking to guys
