I’ve had enough of the internet for a couple days, I think. Tis the freakin’ season to be freakin’ jolly, dammit!
So, in the spirit of ho-ho-ho-ing, I’m going to share a few favorite ornaments from my tree with y’all. I adore my tree, and every single ornament on it is there because it means something. […]

I have officially second-guessed myself into a state of paralysis. I have no idea what I’m doing, what I’m going to do, what I could or should do.
My PotC Magic 8-Skull answers every single question with “Walk the Plank”. I’m hoping it’s broken, because—if not—that sucks.
In other news, totally addicted to Smallville now. When it […]

I must now be an official Navy SEAL since I feel like I’ve survived Hell Week. And how come no matter which direction a family member turns to sneeze or cough, it’s MY direction?
In lieu of real content, a short list of questions I’ve been asked in the past couple of days:

Not at 5:00am, mind you, because there’s nothing out there worth my dealing with strangers at that ungodly hour of the morning.

2. Having the husband after the fact say “He’s a boy, why didn’t you tell him to piss off the deck?” sucks more.
3. My boots are no […]

The last riding weekend of the season (for the kids and I) is imminent. It’s also time to bring the four-wheelers home, since the husband plows with mine.
Now down here in the central part of the state, it’s starting to get a little chilly in the mornings. (Translation for non-New Englanders: seeing your breath, scraping […]

From the Yahoo page:
No more ‘ho ho ho’:
Santas are told to say “ha ha ha” instead of “ho ho ho” so they don’t offend women.
Are you kidding me?
Seriously, I don’t even have the words to express how much this pisses me off.

Plus, wouldn’t this only be offensive if you considered yourself a […]

You know, that sound from Law & Order that signifies a scene change and a wratcheting up of the tension?
Well…
Doink doink
Today will be Day 1 of no Dunkin Donuts.
