Massive storm rolled through this morning and knocked out our intertubes. I suspect the kids are going to lose their tiny brains. I’m relegated to Marvin the Note and the urge to write ALL THE THINGS on my sites…which, of course, I can’t. Guess behind internetless isn’t SO bad since I need to finish this… Continue reading The Post Where Marvin the Note, a.k.a., My Phone Decided To Publish a Post When It Shouldn’t Have. Asshole.

SimCity Beta First Impressions
The last time I played a SimCity game, I think the computer was running Windows 3.0 or something and I couldn’t figure out the game. Cut me some slack…I was seven. SO there was a bit of a learning curve for me when I first started playing with the beta. I was very, very good… Continue reading SimCity Beta First Impressions
I Need a Peephole in My Door
Just had a door-to-door salesman dude show up–second one since we moved here in November. He was selling magazines trying to “earn points so he can be promoted and be a mentor.” He “came from the ghetto and just wants a promotion.” The whole thing is a scam and it’s been proven as such many,… Continue reading I Need a Peephole in My Door
Pedigree and Westminster Break Up Pound Puppies Rejoice
One of my favorite and hated ad campaigns has been the Pedigree ads for shelter dogs. Favorite because I love shelter dogs. My first dog, Sydney, was a shelter dog. She had been a “bait dog” for a local pit bull fighting ring and was evidence. I was fostering her and if I hadn’t been… Continue reading Pedigree and Westminster Break Up Pound Puppies Rejoice

Did He Cheat or Didn’t He?
We live close to the local university so tenants come and go with the semester since most of them are college students. For the most part, they aren’t loud but they have a lot of issues. Remember those issues? The boy drama? The friend drama? The should-I-call-him-or-should-I-wait-?!!! drama? All that crap makes me happy I’m married. Three… Continue reading Did He Cheat or Didn’t He?
Living Will: A Joke
My friend Alana occasionally emails me forwarded jokes she gets while she’s in the salt mine better known as the bank where she’s employed. This joke was one of those where you had to scroll down like two mouse rolly ball rolls so you could get passed all of the junk and get to the joke.… Continue reading Living Will: A Joke
How Do We Break the Sugar Addiction?
Everyone has their favorite foods. Tucker could live on ice cream and pizza. When those two things are placed in front of him, he eats it all no matter how much is there. My weakness is meat. If I were an animal, I would be an alligator or something. All that meat just heading on… Continue reading How Do We Break the Sugar Addiction?

Weight Loss Weekend before last, I decided I was going to lose weight. Again. And to… Continue reading Weight Loss and a Liar Amongst Us
Grey Sky
I wish my camera worked. The sky right now is perfect grey – classic winter sky right before it spits sleet or snow at you. Last night I stayed up and read Stephanie Meyer’s Midnight Sun partial draft. After writing about going to see the midnight release of the New Moon movie and now this,… Continue reading Grey Sky
