Whoever invented polygamy CERTAINLY wasn’t a woman. If you think about it, only the older (fatter AND creepier) men benefit from polygamy. Although, I do recall seeing some docu-gamy on Discovery or one of those other higher numbered channels several months ago (after Warren Jeffs was arrested the FIRST time) about a man who was rustic-woodsy-outdoor good-looking [...]

Like I said…
…in the missing portion of my last post is that it’s ALL about the money. When the pictures of Miley Cyrus first came out, she was quoted as saying that it was art. Her father, who was there with mom on the set, said he didn’t have a problem with the pictures (but as of yesterday retracted [...]

It’s the beeeeeeeeest of both worlds…
You do realize that I couldn’t POSSIBLY neglect writing about Miley “YEEHAW” Cyrus and her Vanity Fair pictures, ya’ll. Did you? (Silly you.)
Miley Cyrus makes me extremely glad to have sons who think she’s annoying, as opposed to having daughters who worship her very existence. Growing up, as a girl, I never felt that way [...]

Walk like an Egyptian…
So, it’s Tuesday, but I keep thinking it’s Monday. Why? Because of this crazy-birthday weekend I just had. My parents flew home yesterday and texted me upon arrival (it was late) to let me know they arrived intact and alive.
Whew.
I always worry about planes, especially nowadays. When I flew to Arizona back in October (my [...]

Beware: Killer Dolphin
My birthday weekend went over quite well. Mom and Dad definitely surprised me with their “WE’RE HEREEEEEEEEEE!” visit Friday morning. And, surprised my friends by showing up to my friend party on Saturday. My friends looked at me and I said, “SURPRISE” with buggy-eyes. They snarked a little.
I was SO worried about serving alcohol at [...]

Happy Anniversary…
Today marks my 15th wedding anniversary. (*crowd goes wild*)
So, I just wanted to wish my husband a
(Yes, I realize that it’s cheezy. However, cheezy is all I can do right now. We’re actually going to celebrate NEXT week because it’s all sorts of crazy here.)

So, I woke up this morning, bound and determined that #3 [...]

Don’t get me wrong…
I still hate parties, but today it’s mostly because I’m cooking ALL of the food MYSELF for my own goddamn party. How is that fair, I ask you. Not to mention, my husband asked me if I was going to get my own cake.
NO. I’m not. I think that if I have to make my [...]

Why I hate parties…
I think my fear of birthday parties began when I was in 3rd grade.
Maybe fear is too strong of a word. Perhaps it’s more like “anticipating rejection.” Let me explain…
In third grade, I invited my ENTIRE class to my birthday party. I was so excited, picking out a cute and frilly card and passing them out [...]

Just like old times…
/insert Feels like the First Time
Ok. I removed myself as official referee of the “two fighting women” thing. I told BOTH of them that I’m not getting in the middle. The best thing to do, I said, is to ignore the other one.
Who am I siding with?
NO ONE.
That’s the beauty of not living near my [...]

Introducing…
Romeo, our newest addition. (The picture seems washed out because I pulled back my LONG curtains and pulled open the blinds and cracked the window just ever so slightly.)
/chants Ro-me-o, Ro-me-o
(to the tune of RU-FFEE-OOOOOO… ala the movie HOOK)
So, let’s see. On top of bringing this sweet boy home (and spending 40 minutes with him [...]

My impatience paid off…
After two unanswered messages regarding the cat, and lots of hours pacing waiting to be called, I finally received a phone call a minute ago telling us to come get him.
So, I’m off to the store to get cat food, then after I pick up Mr. CrankyPants (aka #3 son), we’ll head over to the [...]

Let’s get one thing straight…
I don’t believe that it is necessary to allow gas stations to charge us more than $2.50 per gallon of gas which is then digested by our energy-deficient vehicles. I don’t believe that people who are being paid hourly rates, beginning with minimum wage workers ($7.15) should have to sacrifice half of their paychecks so that [...]

Here’s my good news for the weekend…
We went out to a shelter by my mother’s house and met with several cats (we had #2 and 3 sons in tow) and have put in to adopt:
Our new baby… Romeo.
I’m waiting for the shelter to call our vet (tomorrow) and was told that if everything’s fine (meaning, that the vet tells them that [...]

Balmy and squeaky
I don’t think I have the wear-with-all to go cat-hunting. After weeks of perusing petfinder.com, I’ve come up with nothing. I visited a cat the other day (Thursday) a few towns over who appears to be quite sweet, however, I’m not sure how she’ll do in our crazy-bat-fucking-nuts house.
My husband took us over to a [...]

Purple moon, pink stars
This morning, my horoscope said to open myself up and befriend people around me whom I have kept at a distance.
SO, for a change, I actually listened to my horoscope even though I think it’s mostly a load of bunk.
This is what happened:
After kindergarden registration, I took #3 son over to a birthday party at [...]
