Support Autism Speaks by buying this bracelet from Stella and Dot. I have it and love it! Be sure to list "Megan Kilis" as your rep when you check out.
I have been frustrated all week because I really wasn't crazy about my last couple of blogs. So thanks for reading and being patient! I am a night owl. I can literally stay up all night long and I love it. But, it's frustrating when I am truly tired and can't fall asleep. I try reading, but I either get so into the book I don't want to sleep, or it doesn't do anything. Television can sometimes help, though I feel it can cause more damage by stimulation. Benadryl, Alteril, anti-anxiety pills and NyQuil are now literally flowing in my veins…if I had to type my blood, it would be a BACNQ or something. Opera usually helps, I can fall asleep right there during a show. But at home, it's not a sure thing. A few years ago I was using the TV method and came across Nick at Nite. I can't remember what was on, but something decent enough to stop surfing. A huge part of why I stopped was because there was an immediate nostalgia from my...
Fashion is about as important to me as breathing. Even if I don't follow all the trends myself, I love knowing what's "in," new fads and new designers. For instance, orange is a popular color this spring, as are pastels, as I read in "People's StyleWatch." I read "InStyle" religiously and check fashion blogs. But here is something I have never learned: who are the people that make these decisions??? Does Anna Wintour make the fashion choices? Dolce & Gabbana's runway show? Michael Kors? OK, so I get the whole idea behind following the fall and spring fashion shows and their trends. But who told the designers what would be big? Or, more importantly, are the fashion editors who tell us impressionable commoners what they personally like and hope it sticks? Ten years ago ponchos were really popular. But in a flash they were "out." Slouchier boyfriend jeans were popular a few summers ago, but now it's all about ...
I was raised a pill popper. My mom was no Judy Garland or Edie Falco from "Nurse Jackie." She distributed the safe, legal stuff, like Benadryl and Advil. Today, if you were to approach my dad, brother or mom, I guarantee they have a Pepto Bismol on them. Just as the father in "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" believed in Windex as a cure-all, we believe in Pepto. It rocks. I am all for Eastern medicine and alternative therapies. I believe that it's worth a try and there are methods that can and have worked. However, I have seen the benefits of western medicine and even lived through them myself. I admit, I asked my dad last week if he had any extra pain killers--because they are super awesome. I've even overcome a strong addiction to Ambien. But I still believe in drugs, the best of the West. Pretty. Think about a bad headache and how much better you felt after a couple Advil. Or when you are sick with a terrible cold and ca...
