This post is proudly brought to you by the ABC’s of Swearing (hosted by @sleepybard from The Insomniac’s Dream). They’re on letter M, so I’m going to throw one of those in here and then continue to swear a lot to see if I can make up for some of my absence because I’ve been a…
What do you do when you feel like you’re stranded on a tiny desert island, standing on the beach writing “HELP!” with rocks and sticks, but you look up because you hear a noise that makes you hopeful that a plane is coming to rescue you, and instead you find that a tidal wave is…
Here’s the deal: I have a few awards that I acquired recently. Since I’m so good at procrastinating and apparently like to half-ass things at the last minute, I’m going to roll it all into one long “thing.” If I follow the rules from all of the awards, I’ll be posting 36 random facts about me, answering…
I read to our 4 year old (Stinkerbell) a lot. Books at nap time. Books at bedtime. Books throughout the day. Books when she wakes up in the middle of the night and just can’t go back to sleep. Here a book, there a book, everywhere you look — a book! We literally have hundreds…
I’m still a little bit speechless. Forgive me if this doesn’t make a whole lot of sense. I’m still processing. The Manchild was out visiting with a friend on Saturday night and was out late because (lucky him) he doesn’t work on Sundays. The Minion stayed the weekend at her friend’s house, and Legoman spent…
So, here’s something that you may/may not have assumed by now: I talk to myself. All. The. Time. Sometimes, I don’t even realize that I’m doing it. … Yeah. For real. Every now and then, I’ll be in the kitchen making dinner and someone in the living room will say, “What?” or “Did you say…
If you hadn’t guessed by the title here, I’m going to bend the rules on the rest of this A-Z Challenge a little bit, in that I’m going to finish mine up with a big cluster-fuck of a mess with the letters that I’ve missed and the ones that are coming up before it’s due because…
I’m not going to lie — I’m obviously falling behind on this A-Z thing right now. I just started a new job on Wednesday, and they have me working a mid-shift. I leave my house around 11:15am and don’t get back until around 7 or 8pm. AND I have Tuesday and Wednesday off. What brand…
I’ve had an amazing post sitting in my drafts folder for quite awhile now about being addicted to oatmeal, because I had the plague and misheard a commercial at 2:30am. It was about being addicted to opiates. I was really hoping to have all of the pictures done by now, because it would have made…
Alternately titled: Why my daughter should shut her yap when I’m imaginating. I was driving to the store with The Minion (my 12yr. old) a few days ago, when I saw a man on the sidewalk dressed in black from head to toe. Me: Did you see that guy? I wonder if he’s a ninja……
