In my mid-twenties, there was a time when I was determined to make my first marriage work, no matter what. (No matter how stupid, dishonest, or full of alcohol my baby-daddy was) I was convinced that it was best for our child if we stayed together. When she was still a toddler I had come … Continue reading

Spam In A Can: A Love Story
Many people have yet to try this freakish godsend of Spam in a can. Just the mere mention of the word Spam to some people will bring on an over exaggerated mimicking of the vomiting process. My husband is one of those people. To some I say, don’t knock it ’till you try it, and … Continue reading
What Up Gangsta
WORD! I came across this picture that my older brother took of me when I was around 9 or 10 years old. I had an overwhelming, bizarre desire to share it. No, I was not in a gang and yes I am holding a very large knife. No wonder I had some issues as … Continue reading
A Household Knocked On Their Ass
The best thing about the Thanksgiving holiday are the leftovers. The weeks worth of fabulous real meat sandwiches and grand full plate dinners. This year, my household had a weeks worth of a nasty stomach flu. When I should have been putting together creative new ways to present the same food items to my picky … Continue reading
Craigslist Buffoonery
Currently I’m selling a few household items on Craigslist for extra cash with the bonus of knowing I’m not attached to all of my possessions like a hoarder. This runs in the family so I like to check on myself from time to time. I’m good. Anyways, even when I’m not using it as an … Continue reading
Fat People Are Not Worthy…And Other Bullshit Lies Society Tells You
I have had more flesh on my bones than is socially acceptable since the age of five. Just in time for bloody Kindergarten. Good times. Well Kindergarten at least should be good times for all but it was not meant to be for me. I guess the children had never seen such a little chubby … Continue reading
Top Things That Make Me Aggro This Week
I feel another list coming on…in no particular order 1. The wind machine the television show Xfactor annoyingly uses during almost every performance. Even on the guys for Christ sakes! You do not have the “Xfactor” just because you can tolerate artificial wind in your face. It’s not the contestants fault but the peeps in … Continue reading
11 Ways To Tell If A Social Networking Site Has Turned You Bat Shit Crazy…In My Opinion
1. If you forgot to feed your kids, husband, dogs and yourself in a 24 hour period, while literally checking what everyone and their mom is doing who are in your “friend” list, and posting clever one liners. 2. If you forgot you even had kids, a husband, dogs, oh yeah and a job. 3. … Continue reading
Bullies…Karma Is Real And It Will Find You
I naively thought we could escape them. I was wrong. My hopes were that they wouldn’t be in a town with a population of 2000 people. Of course they’re here, I think to myself now. They’re bored, there’s not much to keep them busy in this town. There is no where I can go that … Continue reading
Kneecaps and Houses Keep Life Interesting
It has been awhile since my last post and the only excuse I have is life took over my life. Recently I spend most of my days typing out Craigslist for sale ads, I may have another post with more detail on the ridiculousness that ensues with Craigslist. I’ve been trying to sell things I … Continue reading
Landlord Fail…The Ongoing Saga
Here we are again. My husband, daughter, and I are once again renting a house from slumlords. I don’t know what it is about this town, but I’m about to go ape shit crazy if I feel like one more person is taking advantage of us. The whole deal too, I’m not going to half … Continue reading
Thanks For The Lift…Oh And The Awkward
When I was 18 I was an office assistant at a carpet warehouse in Oakland, Ca. I was right out of highschool and it was my third job experience. I didn’t have a car so I was an AC Transit bus expert and walked everywhere that distance allowed. This job, however, I didn’t have to … Continue reading
