I passed a kid on a bike while driving home today. He was on my side of the road, facing me. I’m assuming that someone had his safety in mind since he was wearing a helmet. However, he wasn’t on the correct side of the road. I learned that you always ride with the cars […]

Mortifying Moments
I was in my car today, driving past all the packed bars, filled with St. Paddy’s celebrations, and it got me thinking. First, I thought about wanting a beer. But a) I was on my way to my volunteer gig with animals. And b) no thank you for amateur day shenanigans. I’m a pretty loud […]
So Hot
[Update: Pretend there is an awesome photo here.] I just wasted half an hour at H&M’s website creating this model and laughing hysterically. First I made my model like me, so she has extra weight on her and I “tried on” ugly shirts. Shockingly enough, she looked fat in a lot of them. Then I […]
I say “Whee” a lot when I’m driving.
It’s a pretty good indication of how I drive. I went to my parents’ house the other day. A couple days before there had been a snow storm in which I made tracks up the driveway once and in the meantime an ice storm had followed. This left the obnoxiously un-plowed driveway with a car […]

She leaned in conspiratorially and said, “My husband didn’t want me to ask you this, but I’m going to anyway. […]
Lots of energy, short on time
I have 7 million five hundred thousand and eight things to report on but I don’t have any time!!!!!!!!!! I have updates on the baby birds, who have flown onto the big world out there (have to have the pictures to discuss, can’t upload them here), I have some killer pictures of the kittens at […]
Nothing To Report
Still breathing. Cats are hanging out. Watching Family Guy. ‘S about it.
Trying not to cough on your face.
I caught whatever everyone has at work and have a wicked chest cough and this weird lump in my neck. A lymph node, but it still freaked me out so I went to a walk-in clinic. He said to watch it for 2 weeks and if it’s still there at that point, to come back […]
Please. Feel free to talk.
Questionnaire for Potential Ticket Holders in Row J, seats 1 and 3 – for shows that are on the more subtle side (a.k.a. Dionne Warwick/Suzanne Vegas, you know, NOT rock and roll shows where it’s expected that you’ll act like a drunk idiot): 1) Are you a housewife out on the town for the first […]
