This is one of those posts that will probably be annoying to you since it’s all “I’m going to talk about something but I’m not going to really give you too many details since I don’t want to screw myself over”. But, it’s also one of those posts I have to write since I need… Continue reading Cloak and Dagger Post

I Want a Nightlight Because Monsters are Real
My mom has always said I have a very active imagination. I have always said my brain just doesn’t know when it’s in its best interest to shut down. Because of my active imagination or my brain’s lack of self-preservation, I don’t enjoy dark spaces. Or mirrors in the dark. But I’ve already told you about… Continue reading I Want a Nightlight Because Monsters are Real
The Fight You Must Fight
I’m often flippant about mental illness. Come on. I have a blog named “Taste Like Crazy”. How can I NOT be “lacking in seriousness; characterized by levity” about it? And, if I wanted to be completely honest, I’d say that “levity” is a coping mechanism and we all have them. Mine is making light of… Continue reading The Fight You Must Fight
Customer Service and I Fired My Shrink
I fired my shrink today. How’s that for an opening line? I knew from the first time I met him [actually before I met him] that he most likely wasn’t going to be a good “fit” for me; he was almost 30 minutes late for our initial appointment. Not exactly a wonderful first impression. I think I’ve… Continue reading Customer Service and I Fired My Shrink
Technology Hates Me Today
Today is the day when it seems like all of the technology in the house is conspiring against me. Direct TV started acting up a couple of days ago. Cara and Ollie would be watching some cartoon [and very much enjoying said cartoon, might I add] and the next thing I know, Cara is hollering… Continue reading Technology Hates Me Today
The Alarm
One of the worst feelings is that of being a prisoner in your own home. [There was some other dribble here but it was specific to TWO nights ago when I was writing this and since I apparently suck at completing blog post right now, I deleted that other stuff and put this in instead.… Continue reading The Alarm
His Name was Allergic
Before we left for Arkansas on Friday, I noticed that the Cara and Ollie’s toilet had sprung a leak. Such an impressive [meaning annoying] leak that the floor was covered with water and the bathroom rugs were sopping wet. We turned off the water to the toilet, cleaned up the flood and went to Arkansas.… Continue reading His Name was Allergic
The Boring List
So I’m all like, “I’m not quitting. I’ll be back.” and then I don’t post anything on here for like five years or something. Yeah. Sorry about that. I seem to lack the ability to plan out my month with any sort of success so I usually find myself doing a mad rush at the… Continue reading The Boring List
A Gimmick is Worth HOURS of Sleep…I Hope
There’s is something especially annoying about being kicked out of a good dream by the thumping of a pit bull tail. That’s how I knew that Cara was in our room this morning. Before we left for BlogHer, Cara had occasionally said that she was scared of her room. It occurred randomly and usually when… Continue reading A Gimmick is Worth HOURS of Sleep…I Hope
Contagious Psychosis and the Two Year Old
I’ve decided that to parent a two year old is to put yourself in close proximity to a contagious psychosis that no drug can tame. Normally I would say that I was being melodramatic but after today, and watching Caroline’s mood spread throughout the house, I am a firm believer in the power that is… Continue reading Contagious Psychosis and the Two Year Old
Though I Am Awesome…
At every apartment complex that we’ve lived, we’ve had a pool. Though I love swimming, I’m not a big fan of the whole bathing suit thing and refuse to wear a t-shirt to cover up so I can count on two hands [maybe three…I have a spare] the number of times that I’ve actually used… Continue reading Though I Am Awesome…
Because He’s Cute
Yesterday was Christmas. Lots of food was consumed. Many presents were opened and tons of pictures were taken. My father-in-law took all of the pictures and he emailed them to me today. Sure there were good pictures of Cara but as I was saving the pictures to their happy little folders, I realized that while… Continue reading Because He’s Cute
