Anagamin.com - For Ones Who Never Return

Jaime Mintun — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 19:41:36 +0000

As some of you know, I packed my bags, stuffed my car, and gave up my home nearly 30 days ago. I’ve been traveling the states ever since. No destination in mind. No time line. Just meandering… allowing my heart to lead. This is the beginning of a sacred pilgrimage. After exploring the States I will [...]

My Very Own Paparazzi

Lucky you… My brother and I are known for our infamous house parties. But we’re often so lost to the festivities of beer pong, guitar hero, and inebriated dancing that we never get around to documenting the fun. Well now I have my very own personal paparazzi to follow us around and take pictures! His name is [...]

Philanthropy Feeds the Soul

A few months ago I had the pleasure and honor to meet Vivian Glyck, founder of a soulful and effective charity called Just Like My Child Foundation. It’s just one of the things that makes Vivian a stunning and wonderful woman. She is someone I have hoped to learn from, assist, and befriend. This month I [...]

The Return

For the past month, I’ve heard one particular question often: “Why the heck are you going to Alaska?” My favorite response was “I told my brother I’d take him anywhere in the world for his birthday. He picked freaking Alaska!” But then I set foot in the savage, stunning, completely breathtaking beauty of Alaska and now I can’t [...]

Ahh the Memories! Part Three: The MOVE

After we returned home from Sedona it was Thanksgiving Weekend. So we went back to my parents’ house and I attended my high school 10 year reunion that weekend as well. It was 1 part traumatizing, 1 part fascinating, and 2 parts VERY VERY STRANGE. It’s surreal to return to a time in your life that [...]

Ahh the Memories! Part Two: The Rest of Sedona

Jaime Mintun — Wed, 22 Apr 2009 23:10:13 +0000

The other part of my incredible birthday was the day trip to Sedona. It was pure magic. Truly. What an incredible way to ring in my new year. We drove the road out to Sedona from Flagstaff and the leaves had just turned their bright oranges and yellows. And the creek along the road… We went to [...]

Ahh the Memories! Part One: My Birthday in Flagstaff & Sedona

Jaime Mintun — Mon, 20 Apr 2009 23:06:24 +0000

I’m making a serious effort to come out of blogging retirement. Life has been crazy, intense, with ups and downs…but mainly ups. I’m quickly recapping the past six months, post-fibroid surgery and pre-my new glorious life, starting with: – My 28th Birthday (November 22) My brother and I took a road trip up to Flagstaff, AZ and Sedona, AZ. [...]

Confessions of an Absentee

Jaime Mintun — Mon, 26 Jan 2009 06:26:46 +0000

I know it’s been AGES since I’ve posted any updates. I have no excuse, except that I have tons of reasons why I was too busy. But I know I should have posted something. There was just so much to say and never enough time to do it justice. I wanted to blog about my amazing birthday [...]

Stubborness in the Shape of Carrot Cake

Jaime Mintun — Sun, 19 Oct 2008 20:06:16 +0000

Here’s a bit of insight into the wackiness that is me: Before I went into surgery, I convinced myself that I would be healed and ready to work again in five days’ time (it actually took two weeks). So I set the goal for myself that on the fifth day I would celebrate my success by baking [...]

Back from Oblivion

Jaime Mintun — Fri, 17 Oct 2008 20:06:16 +0000

It’s been ages since I’ve updated my blog. I apologize. Healing from the surgery was far more difficult than I could have imagined! I was bed ridden for about 3 days where I just laid in the same position and never moved except for the excruciating journey to the bathroom. My neck and back locked up [...]
