So, what are your plans for the holiday weekend? I plan on cursing my emeffing neighbors who shoot off (illegal) fireworks in their yard, thus waking up my kids and terrifying my dog. Although the above is actually true, it’s not all we’re doing this weekend. Tomorrow afternoon/evening, my dad and his wife are hosting [...]
I’m spending tomorrow evening with a wonderful woman with whom I spend far too little time. The icing on the cake (or death!) is that we’re seeing Eddie Izzard in concert. I absolutely adore Eddie and honestly never thought I’d get a chance to see him in person in my lifetime. To say that it’s [...]

My husband just told me that I’m failing all kinds of fails in regard to posting regularly. In fact, I’m a string of fails not unlike a fail necklace. I’m made of fail with a rich and creamy fail nougat. He’s nothing if not supportive. *sigh* Anyhow, I’ve been being beaten down by The Man [...]

I’ve never known a life lived behind the veil of a burqa, nor have I seen a friend or loved one stoned to death for dishonoring her family.

I was going to post pictures of the delightful “hamburgers” I made for Father’s Day using a Bakerella recipe. However, my camera is ALL THE WAY in my room and I’m ALL THE WAY in the living room. I think we can all agree that’s simply too much effort on my part. You will have [...]
