In something like 15 hours we’ll be on our way to Phoenix and I can’t express how excited I am to go. I’ve been using this weekend as a touchstone all year long (only 4 more months til Phoenix! Only 7 more weeks til Phoenix!) and nothing’s going to stop me now. Including the fact that I have virtually NO INVENTORY to sell at the convention AND the banners didn’t...
Truthful Tuesday
I love my husband dearly, but he’s a bumbling fool. If I don’t remind him of things a million times and convince him that, yes, he DOES need to finish the root canal that was started several months ago then he wouldn’t. He would forget to eat, forget to sleep, forget to take care of himself and he’d evaporate into thin air. He acknowledges this readily and appreciates...

Kidlet is swimming at what is, apparently, the “hot mom” pool. The “oh I’m so old, I’m already 24” bitches who clearly spent more than am hour in hair and makeup before bringing their toddlers to the pool where they’re too involved with themselves to notice the crawling-aged baby (9, 10 months?) crawling INTO the jacuzzi and even then it’s all...
Last week in my hotel room, I watched a show on HGTV about people buying vacation homes in foreign countries. Mindless schlock, to be sure, but I thought it would help me fall asleep (also it was the only channel not running infomercials at 3am). Instead, it kept me awake because I just kept thinking “who the hell does this woman think she is?”
She wanted a vacation home in Italy in...

“I love shoes! preferably Mary Janes, Ballet Flats, and Slouch Boots! I like to get them wet and muddy too! If you see a pair that you’d like to see wet or muddy, let me know, I take requests!”
This person favorited a picture of some shoes I posted on Flickr. Apparently this person is a muddy-shoe fetishist. Man, what the fuck is wrong with people? Seriously. Get the fuck out,...

I’m just bookmarking crap for my vacation, sorry everybody. This website is straight out of 1997.
Every website for everything in Central Coast California is straight out of 1997. Web designers should be soliciting this audience for work.

I feel very selfish today.
I am extremely fortunate that my nephew’s parents are going to live. His father didn’t lose his leg, as the doctors expected that we would. Mom isn’t on the brink of death anymore and her prognosis is very good.
In fact, they will be coming home soon. Dad within the next day or so and Mom shortly after. Which means that I have to go clean their...

I like watching infomercials. If there’s nothing on and I’m just laying on the couch, zoning out in front of the tv before bed, they are weirdly comforting. I’ve never bought anything off an infomercial, though. I think part of the reason I like them is that I would watch them as a kid and just be…
I watched one when I was unable to sleep in a hotel and it was for some baby food...
WatchBought the Kidlet a shirt from Target with a cheeseburger jumping on a trampoline (I’ve loved this design for so long, I’m terribly jealous) and he and Uncle Ryan were trying to recite the ingredient list, in order, as fast as they could. Then Kidlet found the ukulele and wanted to write a song. He wouldn’t sing on camera, but he strummed the uke while Ryan played the chords.

Commentary from a 6 year old
“Wow. You must really like Pee Wee Herman.”
“How many Haunted Mansion things do you have? That’s a lot of toys for an adult. I’m going to play with them since you don’t, ok?”
“Your bathtub is DISGUSTING! There were two ants walking on the side. TWO ANTS!! I guess that’s not too many, but… whoa. Disgusting.” (it’s getting hot...
Dear Internet,
Please excuse Giddy Girlie’s absence this week. She has been dealing with a family emergency in which she has unexpectedly been bequeathed a 6 year old boy for a couple of weeks. His parents are both hospitalized and in isolation, so she is dealing with some very major emotional trauma as well as the surprise of becoming a mother overnight. She hopes to be able to return to...
Rough Morning
I was asked to do a “favor” by my boss for one of her work friends. It’s a work-related thing, but doesn’t have ANYTHING to do with my job. This “favor” is particularly laborious and administrative and could be done by anybody (including this lady’s own executive secretary) and has taken more than 3 hours of my day to complete. So I emailed the lady and...

Last week I was with a lady who was aggressively pursuing this guy who wasn’t interested in her and he kept, literally, leaning around her and trying to talk to me (I think he was hoping that if his body language said “check out how I’m ignoring you” she’d back off) and then I…
I feel like I should proofread things before I post them. I just noticed a typo. D’oh!

Last week I was with a lady who was aggressively pursuing this guy who wasn’t interested in her and he kept, literally, leaning around her and trying to talk to me (I think he was hoping that if his body language said “check out how I’m ignoring you” she’d back off) and then I realized he was flirting with me when he said his name was Kilgore Trout.
I have to admit,...
Can today be a workplace holiday? I am really in the mood to celebrate I’M NOT YOUR FUCKING SECRETARY Day! You don’t have to get me a card or flowers, just keep your “requests” to your damn self.
