H is for Humor
People are always laughing at me. I love that. Then they apologize. That upsets me. Duh, I wrote it to be funny. Sometimes I think people must think I’m fragile, as they apologize for laughing. You can laugh at me … Continue reading
F is for Furniture
As I sit here, on my loveseat, I’m fully aware that it’s time to clean the upholstery again. (Like three months ago!) Not my favorite task. It makes me miss our old brown couches. We were idiots then, when we … Continue reading
E is for Enlightenment
No, no, I’m not going to tell you how to become enlightened — like I can even claim to possess such divine knowledge. Do I seem remotely enlightened to you? Am I free from worry? Hah! *cries* I am a … Continue reading
C is for Commissary
The dictionary would have you believe that a commissary is a restaurant. That is not the definition for millions of military families. The commissary, or the com, is a grocery store on a military installation. If you have a military … Continue reading
The Doors (and not the groovy kind)
Some of my fellow bloggers post pictures of beautiful or interesting doors on Thursdays. I’m over here writin about door fail on a Tuesday. Home improvement bloggers are all, “It’s such a relief to have changed all my doorknobs to oil-rubbed … Continue reading

I Swallow my Tough Pills Nervously
My readership drops when I post awards. I don’t mind. If I cared about readership, I’d need to do all sorts of things that aren’t authentic to me. Like almost swearing — dam that $h!t is lame. People who never swear … Continue reading

Meat and Me and Moo and Stew
For a long time, Moo never ate meat. I don’t know why. I never asked. Having been a vegetarian for six years, this never bothered me. There are always people who comment about how important it is to eat meat … Continue reading

I Won NaNoWriMo!
It’s true, I just wrapped up 50,003 words. It’s not an entire novel. It would be, if you didn’t mind reading things out of order and your imagination could fill in the blank spaces…but for now, it’s a start. I … Continue reading
It Couldn’t be Fall Without Chubby Squirrel
I didn’t feel like doin a One-Liner today, although if I did, it’d be, “Hang on, there’s a squirrel at the door.” Yes, Chubby lives on, although as it turns out, Chubby is a female who wasn’t so much chubby as … Continue reading

Meh — But There’s a Poll!
I’m in a sorta holding pattern, because my family has been home for their fall breaks, and we’ve been enjoying late nights and sleep-ins, neither of which promote productivity, and so, I suppose I’ve been on a fall break, too. Yes, … Continue reading
