Yesterday I received a mysterious email, the contents of which read: “Check out June”. Yes, that’s all it said. (It wasn’t all that mysterious, of course, because I knew who it was from.) Oooh, a scavenger hunt! The game was short lived, however, because I saw them immediately.
Tony and Charlotte are […]

Note to self: Google before you leap.
A while back, y’all remember when we donated to the ferrets? Well, really we donated to the Defenders of Wildlife, but y’all know what I mean. (There’s a reason I’m not linking to it.) Yes, I donated, too.

Now, of course, I find out they’re one of […]

So I’d been hearing for a couple of days we’d be getting a dusting to 2″ last night. No big deal. Then the late news said 4-8″, and this morning’s news said 6-8″. Okay. So, despite there being less than an inch on the ground this morning, they called school because the storm’s supposed to […]

So last night after work the husband upgraded all of our smoke detectors. When we remodeled, he hardwired in good smokes, but that was a few years ago and he wanted to change them out for new and improved models. (Honestly, I think it was easier for him to install new ones than for us […]

Dear Ramiele Malubay: (”Alone” by Heart) Hey, we were both born on 9/6! (We won’t talk about the year, though.) As for your singing, you have lovely tonsils, but I wouldn’t recommend taking on Heart again. The Wilson sisters didn’t screech like howler monkeys being gangraped by horny, horny hippos.
Dear Jason Castro: […]

See that little triangle of bright blue? That’s the top of the tarp covering my Mustang.

We left storage arranging a little late this year and finally decided to park it at my stepmother’s and just throw a tarp over it. Then Mother Nature gifted us with 100-year-old-record breaking snows. We went up […]

I am a bad, bad mom.
So I had to take a break from the keyboard and run to Walmart for some Easter stuff, including a PS3 game. Now, thieves have figured out how to steal PS3/X-Box/whatever games from the store: A person pays for the game at the electronics counter—which deactivates the security tag—tosses […]

I’m not really here right now. I’ll probably pop online sporadically, but I’m like a mad woman for the first time in a long time and I don’t want to risk sidetracking Ezmerelda. (I’ll probably be blogging about how NOT to write after suffering a loss at some point.) But for now, […]

I originally posted this in the comments of Karen Scott’s temporary blog, but it’s a little off topic there, so I figured I’d repost it here so if people need to explain to me the error of my ways, it can be done without hijacking the topic.
I was thinking about RWA standards earlier and how […]

…and I still don’t have a blog topic for today. I suck.
So totally random:
NASCAR: It’s hard being a Juan Pablo Montoya fan. The husband’s always been a total Jeff Gordon fanboy (he gets livid when I call him that, btw) and the short kid’s a Kyle Busch fan. The tall kid…well, he’s so non-sports-orientated […]
