Do you remember the video game The Sims? The one where you simulate a life, marry, have kids, hold down a job, buy new stuff, and somehow try to maintain your friendships? That’s how it’s been around here lately. I’m just going through the motions and nothing exciting has happened. That’s the reason for my [...]
Do you ever feel like your life is a remake of a cult classic movie? I believe I could change my name to Molly and John Hughes himself might show up at my door. Of course, I always picture myself as the Duckie character - the one on the periphery. Be that as it may, [...]
If you’ve seen how my nose is deformed (HERE), you understand why I’ve had numerous sinus infections in the last couple of years. Since I’ve been on Allegra (so happily!) I have done better, but I recently went to the lady doc, & she decided being an NFP girl meant I needed to be taking [...]
The natives are restless around here. If you drive by my kitchen window you are liable to find me with my face & hands pressed against the glass begging to be released from my cage. 3+ weeks of togetherness has seen me pull hair out from the roots (and these were recently colored ones, too, [...]
Thanksgiving Day at Puppy’s parents’ house turned out to be rather unexciting, barring one teensy altercation. Considering I have said all of about ten sentences to Puppy’s dad since he first took an instant loathing to me, I just had to share some great news with him. Like the wonderful daughter-in-law I am, I made [...]
Once upon a time last spring, the Anglophiles headed home to the metropolis known as H-town and my father shared information so disturbing I momentarily pondered using a spoon to scoop my eyes out of my ocular cavities and having Puppy pour hydrochloric acid in them. It was that disturbing. Wanna refresher? HERE. Go ahead. [...]
Normally I try to limit my TMI (haha) on here to once in a great moon, but when Trannyhead, Esq. said she wanted green bean stories, I was willing to take one for the team - because that is one hawt lawyer. And, she’ll tell you that herself. I even asked which green bean story [...]
It is a well-known fact I’m in love with the mother of the Burgh Baby. I’ve stated this at least umpteen different times, and considering that we have been engaged for almost all of 2008, I’m pretty sure you all know it. My Silly Billy Burgh slays me at least once a day, oftentimes more [...]
If only it were all relative, right? Wouldn’t it be nice to avoid family situations? The ones that you go to with a chip on your shoulder, because you know things will certainly be uncomfortable? Ahhh, family.
You probably know I went to Houston this past weekend for my wonderful SIL’s baby shower. I love my [...]
This weekend, I’m home for my SIL’s baby shower. Little Olivia* will be arriving in just a few short months, finally turning me into an aunt. Of course, I’m nothing if not blissfully excited about this. This is the second trip home this month, and Puppy actually offered to watch Knute for me.
Uhhh. The very idea [...]
