Just Call Me GiGi

My poor blog! I had to dust off the cobwebs just to get to the post editor today!  If anyone is still following me here, please forgive me.  My life has been in fast forward on both the personal and professional level.  I’ve been writing classes and course material, plus two business blogs and sadly… Continue Reading

Media Ethics, Do they Exist?

Media Ethics, Do they Exist?

I’ve given myself a few days to think about what I’m about to say here.  It’s always wisest to address a subject like this calmly.  That subject? What I view as a lack of ethical behavior in the southern Maine media.  The headlines and news stories in May 2011 and again in July 2011 told… Continue Reading

Dusting off the Soapbox

The soapbox used to be used regularly here at Princess Girly Girl.  In fact, in the early days the high heels were upon it so often that they left imprints. But it’s been awhile.  I had to reach back into the dark recesses of the Princess closet to even find it.  Stuff was stacked upon… Continue Reading

Summer’s End

Usually the end of summer brings a bit of melancholy for me. It used to be my favorite season when I lived in Maine and had to soak up the sun while it lasted. Now that I’m in the sunny south, I have more time to gather rays, but there is still something about summer… Continue Reading

Stalkers, Liars and Creeps, Oh My!

With the ending of my recent relationship with the City Boy I’ve found myself visiting the dating sites again. I had forgotten how depressing and frustrating they can be. And how many shady characters seem to be lurking there ready to pounce on the first unsuspecting victim.  From conversations I’ve had with members of the… Continue Reading

The Sad Times

I’ve struggled with this post.  Since the inception of Princess Girly Girl, this has been somewhere I’ve come to release pent-up thoughts and feelings. It has hovered between being my soapbox and being my therapist.  I’ve never cared about how many hits this blog has gotten or how many people read it. It was started… Continue Reading

Growing Old Gracefully…?? Hello? I Don’t Think So.

You think you’ll never get old. I mean, seriously, when you’re a teenager 30 seems ancient, but then you hit your mid-20′s and hell, 40 ain’t even so old anymore.  And then you hit your 40′s . And as much as I may want to deny it, lots of people look at us as getting… Continue Reading

My Favorite Martian?(or more experience with Mars/Venus stuff)

Yes, it’s been a long time since I posted here. At the time, my interest in a city boy had given me an unusual interest in college hoops.  I guess in the time I’ve been MIA you could say much has happened. Or not. You see, over the past months I’ve been presented with a… Continue Reading

I ♥ Hoops?

Well, I wouldn’t go quite that far…yet. But I will admit to watching my first basketball game since high school. It was the Duke •vs• UNC game Saturday night, a bitter rivalry here in North Carolina but that wasn’t the reason I found myself tuning in. It had everything to do with a city boy…. Continue Reading

Is Cupid Real Too?

When I was a teenager I devoured romance novels between readings of The Lord of the Rings.  Harlequins, Silhouette and if could get away with it Rosemary Rogers steamy historicals.  My daydreams were filled with perfect romantic dates and guys that did and said all the right things to make me feel beautiful, sexy and… Continue Reading
