Nothing new has really happened around here. I stayed off of the internet for the most part this weekend – I even took a break from Sims3Gamer.com. With all of the politicking that was going on, I just didn’t want to listen to it. We talk about politics enough around here as it is without… Continue reading Two Videos More Interesting Than Me

Sleep Already, Toddler!
Oliver has been doing this weird thing where he wakes up around 3am and then screams bloody freakin’ murder until someone comes and gets him out of his room. Granted, I realize we’ve conditioned him to do this since we have repeatedly followed the same routine of blindly stumbling into his room in the dark… Continue reading Sleep Already, Toddler!
It’s Not Easy Being Green
Happy Birthday, Jessica! And if you’re not Jessica then don’t worry about that part. It’s also Saint Patrick’s Day. I’m not Irish and I know next to nothing about the sainted Patrick other than he was Irish…and a saint. And something about wearing green and drinking green beer. Oh. And making rivers green. Sounds like… Continue reading It’s Not Easy Being Green
Question of the Day: Where’s the Other Shoe
I was a girl about town today because of a dentist appointment and during my journey, at four different stop lights, I saw four different single shoes. These weren’t sequential stoplights like someone had extra shoes in their car that just had to be thrown out at each red light they hit. Random stoplights and… Continue reading Question of the Day: Where’s the Other Shoe
American Culture is to Blame for Bad Schools

Education and learning are two things we value in this household. We also value things like bacon, really good coffee and hours and hours of sleep but believe that last one is kind of like a leprechaun – mythical. Sunday morning was a lazy morning. We had planned on getting random groceries and then going… Continue reading American Culture is to Blame for Bad Schools
Mirror, Mirror On the Wall
You know that part in Snow White where the EVIL Stepmother is all like, “Mirror, mirror on the wall. Who’s the fairest one of all?” Remember that part? Cara has her own version. And it sounds like she’s asking “Who’s the weirdest one of all?” Though it would be a tough contest in this household,… Continue reading Mirror, Mirror On the Wall
Morning Email
Have you ever had one of those dreams where someone you know does something that pisses you off in your dream and then you wake up and you’re still pissed off even though you know you’re being irrational? That happened to me last night. And here’s the email exchange between Tucker and me…because I can’t… Continue reading Morning Email
Must Push Through

I woke up this morning, sat down with my laptop and coffee and started working on Sims 3 Gamer. Since I am not only the Editor-In-Chief [anyone else always thing that was Editor-AND-Chief] but also the web designer on the site, my job has been more on the web design side and less on the… Continue reading Must Push Through
Your Own Worst Enemy
I’m liking the multi-part post thing. It helps mah ADD riddled mind stay on track and it’s a hell of a lot easier to jump from #1 where I’m talking about breastfeeding to #2 where I want to talk about video games. None of that messy transition stuff. Today on Taste Like Crazy, you shall… Continue reading Your Own Worst Enemy
Getting Fired Isn’t Always Bad

WOMAN GETS FIRED FROM WRITING POSITION AFTER YEARS OF LOYAL SERVICE! *snort* So, yeah. I got canned from b5Media today. Note: this will be a three part post. #1 is about me getting fired #2 is about how I’ve lost 15 lbs with no exercise #3a is about Ollie’s haircut and #3b is about being a… Continue reading Getting Fired Isn’t Always Bad
Better Than Dr. Psuedo Freud
Today was my much waited for new shrink appointment. Actually, she’s a LPC [Licensed Professional Counselor] but “shrink” easier to say so I’m gonna stick with that. The office [though it kind of resembled a really nice prison] was freakin’ huge and the staff was pleasant. A very nice change from some of the shrinks’ offices… Continue reading Better Than Dr. Psuedo Freud
Road Trip and Puke

I’d love to write something deep and insightful but I’m running short on deep and insightful today. We spent the weekend in Arkansas and while it was great, I’m pretty sure we all missed our routine. Tucker and I were both dreading last night since we had convinced ourselves that last night was going to… Continue reading Road Trip and Puke
