And I don’t mean that in a good way. I sat down to write this thinking it would be about the high points of the last year, but umm, there really weren’t any. This year pretty much sucked ass from start to finish and the few good things that did happen fell apart [...]

That’s a favorite saying of my dad’s, and man is it true.
Jerrad left for work this morning, and returned 15 minutes later because his car wouldn’t start. He had to call AAA to get it towed to the car hospital. It’s been acting funny for the last week or so, and now we’re [...]

Yesterday didn’t go quite as planned. We did have the nice, quiet, just the two of us Christmas that we were looking forward to. But, we did not make it to Mass because I am having what us IBS sufferers politely refer to as a “flare-up”.
As a practicing Catholic, and by practicing I [...]

I have a lot to be grateful for this year.
Even though there are far less Christmas presents in the living room than last year.
Even though there isn’t a single decoration, save for the few Christmas cards we received, because more than half the stuff we own is packed away in storage or at my mom’s [...]

I don’t want to hate on myspace, necessarily. After all, it is where I snagged my fine ass husband.
I joined myspace in the fall of 2005 after being practically forced to by some friends. I had never really spent much time on the internet before that, mostly because of a stressful job that [...]

I guess at 35, it’s way past time for me to start feeling like a grown-up. Especially considering there are plenty of times in my life when I should have felt like a grown-up. Like say, when I moved across the country from West Virginia to Tucson with my first husband. Or when [...]

I really like to cook, and I really like to try new recipes. And whenever I’m cooking something delicious, I like to update my facebook status to say so. Which usually prompts at least one request for the recipe.
So to be proactive, and to avoid writing an actual post, I will share with [...]

Having a tracker on your page is awesome. I have two, and I check them both obsessively. And if you’re stalking me, don’t worry – you can continue to do so, I won’t know who you are. I can’t tell who is looking, just where you are looking from. And since most people have dynamic [...]

It’s because I’m lazy and easily distracted. Right now I have exactly 5 half written blogs saved in my drafts. I either lose interest halfway through – which means you probably will too – or I think of something else to write about. Then when I go back to it too much time has gone [...]

The only things I need to do today are finish the shopping list, go to the grocery store and look for work.
I have already accomplished the looking for work, since it took me about 20 minutes to see there isn’t even a damn thing to apply for. Therefore, I remain confused about this alleged requirement [...]
