It’s A Shitty Day in the Neighborhood

It’s 9:10 p.m. In a little under 3 hours this day will be over, and BOY WILL I BE GLAD. It hasn’t been a horrible day. Nothing completely awful and terrible happened. My life did not drastically change for the worse. So, I suppose I shouldn’t complain. But, fuck it, I’m going to ANYHOW. It [...]

Life is Like a Rollercoaster, Not a Freaking Box of Chocolates

At least…my life is. Somewhat. I have highs… And then I have lows. Unfortunately for me, my lows are pretty effing low. I mean, dig down 6 feet into the ground low. My aunt recently had a birthday party, and I was all gung-ho to help her celebrate but then when the party actually happened… [...]

Snowmageddon is Killing Me

Wow. I know, I know. It’s been, like, forever. It is really easy for me to write blog updates. It is very hard for me to remember to write blog updates. Sometimes. You know, the drugs, the tiredness, the kids, yadda yadda yadda. And then there’s all this goddamn fucking snow. Let me go on [...]

Who Am I and Where Did the Real Me Go?

I have no idea what is going on with me today. Okay, I have some idea. My period is on its way – I think. With me you never really know because it’s always had a mind of its own.  It’s like that real pain-in-the-ass relative that you are powerless to say no to: it [...]

The Internet

Right now, at this very moment, I find it all so boring…all the twittering, all the blogging, all the websites, all the news, all the videos, just one fat yawn.  The idiot box is no longer the TV-it’s your laptop, sucking you in with a wasteland of crap, enticing you to go on and on [...]
