On the left side of the sanity bell curve
You know you’ve spent way too much time away from your website when you find yourself typing the sentence, “See? I’m not dead.” I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: sometimes work [and that damn Twilight series] takes precedence over my site. When this site pays as much as work then I’ll be… Continue reading Dolla Bills, Y’all
Oh, Internets. Are you feeling OK? I’ve read several posts in the past couple of days that have ranged from slightly bitchy to downright mean. Even the comments have been getting nasty with judgments on how someone else should live their life or picking apart a joke. Then, there’s Twitter with it’s constant back and… Continue reading Aunt Flo, Is That You?
Today I actually got to GO IN some houses that I had stalked looked at on the Internet. We had a list of seven to check out. Seven. I went into it expecting to end the house looking session being all conflicted and not knowing which of the amazing houses we were going to buy.… Continue reading Snorting Bleach
I’m really good at one thing and that’s procrastination. I got an email from the hotel where we’re staying in Chicago letting me know what the weather’s going to be like [79 on Saturday!] and I got this nervous [but good nervous] butterfly feeling in my gut and it was at that point that I… Continue reading Lists to Lose and Sick Kids
After my virtual “breakdown” Saturday night on here and on Twitter over Oscar, I decided to stay away from the internet as much as was possible so that I could get my thoughts [and emotions] together. Maybe breakdown is a tad bit extreme but my emotions were extremely raw and close to the surface. At… Continue reading Relief
I’ve been putting off this post since about 9 o’clock this morning. That’s around the time that I called the vet to check on Oscar and around the time that Cara started “calling” Oscar with our home phone. You know it’s bad when you call to ask when you can pick up your cat and… Continue reading I’m Essentially a Coward
Did you ever have a boyfriend who you just kept coming back to no matter what they did or how much you didn’t want to come back? That’s how I feel about this site. OK. Maybe that’s not fair. I started this website as an extension of a message board journal. The journal was decently… Continue reading What Would You Like To See?
Today was the day that I found my first, honest to God, grey hair on my head. I won’t actually write where I found the other one a few years back because I have family who reads this blog and who REALLY needs THAT one spelled out for them? ANYWAY, the first time that I… Continue reading Misshapen Head
As you might have guessed from this post, Tucker’s getting fixed. Am I the only one whose brain instantly goes to a dog being neutered? Wonder if Tucker’s going to have to wear one of those cones around his neck? I know he has to wear “scrotal support”. When I read that I think of… Continue reading Pregnancy and Permission Slips
The only thing I don’t like about this book is the cover…and the copious talk of masturbating in bathrooms. The end. OK. That’s not really all of the review. Parent Bloggers sent me Maybe Baby: An Infertile Love Story which is written by Mathew M. F. Miller who writes Maybe Baby – the blog. The… Continue reading Maybe Baby Review and Giveaway
We all understand the basic concept of a baby registry. Right? Pregnant women and adopting parents sign up at a store of their choosing for the items that they want. Then friends and family carefully select the largest, least expensive item on the list. [Biggest bang for your buck] If for some reason you either… Continue reading Pregnant and Ranting
What’s wrong with me today, guys? I have been nothing but an evil bitch all day. I’m sure part of it is due to the horrible traffic and the fact that the weather won’t decide what it’s doing; one day it’s 80 and the next it’s in the 40s. Is it too much to ask… Continue reading 40 Dollar Goose
