Get out of my way asshole! 2008-11-02 15:02:02 I’m going to stand on my soap box and bitch for a moment! I just came back from a trip to several stores. Not because I was wasting time and browsing. No sir, I have two kids under the age of two. I don’t play around because then I’ll hear screaming, crying, I want this, [...] Read more:asshole
Pour me another 2008-11-01 15:30:52 I’ve been wondering lately if I’m an alcoholic. I have discussed this with numerous people who, of course, all seem to have some different versions of what alcoholism is. So I decided to consult the dictionaries. They all basically say the same thing they’re just worded differently. Here is the most direct and simply explained [...]
Keep them on a short leash 2008-10-31 08:15:06 While on vacation in Gatlinburg one day I, like everyone else , took a long stroll down that extremely busy main strip. My youngest daughter was in the stroller while my 2 year old was walking…on a leash. Suddenly, I hear the loud conversation of a group of young people directly behind me. Making comments [...]
Work from home! 2008-10-30 21:40:41 What the hell Tom Bosley, Carlton Sheets, and every other asshole trying to sell me the “American Dream”. Your companies are (obviously) a scam for only your corporations to profit from and not the people that are sucked into it believing that they will become entrepreneurs.
Yes, I was an IDIOT and thought maybe I’ll “drop [...]
One of the hardest things to learn 2008-10-30 12:32:23 I was 26 years old when I discovered I was pregnant with my first daughter. My world came to a screeching halt. I’m not going to refer to it as a mistake because she is one of the greatest things
that has ever happened to me…so I’ll call it unexpected. It was not only unexpected [...] Read more:learn

Green is my new pink 2008-10-27 15:30:54 Going green has been my new mission. As long as it doesn’t come at a cost to myself (sorry Mother Earth). As I have been doing my research I have discovered in many many ways going green not only helps the planet, but my pocket book as well. It may be a little extra work [...] Read more:Green
Do you ever mature with age? 2008-10-26 19:09:04 I was having a bad day and my friends decided to drag me kicking and screaming for a “girls night out”. Indeed it was, a night of debauchery that is. We didn’t go any place awesome or even remotely fabulous. Just a little local bar and grille and so our “wild” night begun.
It started with [...] Read more:mature
Damn you germs! 2008-10-26 14:03:01 I am literally laying in my bed at this moment with my head propped up on a pillow and typing with one hand. Why you ask? Or even if you didn’t, here is the reason. I am sick, again!
Only when I was a child or pregnant have I gotten a cold or flu what seems [...]
If I knew then 2008-10-24 16:41:39 I can’t help but think to myself how my irresponsible actions financially (along with millions of other Americans) help screw up our countries economy. But now that everything is screwed, it’s getting even harder for people to get approved for credit and loans.
Of course I made all the wrong and stupid decisions a naive young [...]
Okay, I get it: it’s magic! 2008-10-23 14:45:17 I’d like to think that for my age I’m some what knowledgeable of how to operate and use my computer. I say that because I have seen people around my age (slightly older and younger) whom are able to check their email and myspace and that’s about it.
I can “clean” my computer, defragment it, [...]
The bigger the girl the smaller the clothes…selection that is 2008-10-22 11:03:41 25 years and younger (pre-children days) I couldn’t put on weight if I tried. If I topped at 130 pounds that was a bad year. Eating anything I wanted, drinking anything I wanted, and exercise what’s that? I could just walk into any store I wanted and pick something off of the rack or shelf. [...] Read more:selection
Like Bill Maher…”I’m Swiss” 2008-10-21 12:20:52
Is this for real? Are “we” really this stupid?
It’s election time and although I firmly believe that it is everyone’s civic duty to vote. I have to ask myself…should everyone really be allowed to vote? People whom honestly cannot even tell me what the Bill of Rights is, how many Senators we have per [...] Read more:Maher

What’s with these kids? 2008-10-19 13:21:11 So my oldest daughter is 2 1/2 years old now. And she is able to have a complete conversation with you saying anything and everything that is on her mind. As well as some things that may not be on her mind but she has heard else where (the else where being my mouth). [...]
In the meantime… 2008-06-27 08:16:48 Enjoy this fantastic animation short!
Ugh, friends. 2008-11-19 16:06:38 So where do I draw the line? I have a friend (whom we’ll call Mrs. Poopface) that is in an unhappy marriage. I think if you want to be with someone else then balls up and tell them and everyone involved can be on their way. Mrs. Poopface, however, is to scared of the uncertainty [...]
To tie or not to tie? 2008-11-18 09:00:13 I believe I have already answered the question. I’m about 95% sure I am going to get a Tubal Ligation (have my tubes tied). It’s something that I have been considering for a bit and I think that it’s the right choice for me. I have an appointment this Friday to discuss it with my [...]
Lets get physical 2008-11-17 16:59:27 I’m getting my first thorough and complete physical
done January 2, 2009 and I’m scared. Not because of blood being drawn or anything like that. I have had two children. I have been poked and examined more times then I could begin to count. I’m scared because I have lived a normal unhealthy lifestyle and [...]
Who’s the slacker? 2008-11-15 17:22:22 Oh my Aries ways have caught up with me once again. I was blog, bloggity, blog, blog for a bit there and then I got distracted. I went for a weekend excursion at a good friends home and then fell off of the wagon. In my own defense, I was playing catch up all week. [...]
Then God Created… Noggin! 2008-11-10 13:16:38 It has been almost a year since my husband discovered Noggin for me and my life has certainly been different. I was on a regular schedule of PBS programming in the morning and afternoon. When the children’s shows went off, I’d switch to my collection of children’s DVDs – mainly an assortment of Elmo videos. [...]
Playtex Ventaire Wide 2008-11-10 13:11:39 I am currently bottle feeding my second child. With my first child, I think I bought at least one of every kind of bottle sold out there until I found my winner – Playtex Ventaire Wide. Ventaire offers a Wide and a Normal sized bottle and nipple. As I had breastfed, I found Wide was [...]
Oh you silly America 2008-11-07 11:48:57 America, you never cease to amaze me. The day after the election I decide to look up election news. Guess what I continually run into. Did you guess the importance of our first African-American President – that wasn’t it. Did you guess what was the rest of the worlds reaction to this historic election – [...] Read more:America
Your Big Redneck Wedding — not mine 2008-11-06 12:10:33 I discovered another ridiculous show. It’s on CMT and called My Big Redneck
Wedding. Of course the wedding planned by these rednecks are usually sad, disgusting, ignorant, weird, and crazy. What did I expect though — they wouldn’t have a show otherwise right?! Anyway, what makes this show so funny is Tom Arnold constantly popping [...]
Real Chance…of Being AWESOME! 2008-11-05 12:04:58 As I have previously mentioned, I can’t get enough of reality TV. Well, last night I watched Real Chance of Love. I have seen I Love New York and I Love Money…both starring (for a lack of a better word) “Real” and his brother “Chance”. “Real” didn’t seem like a bad guy, for what you [...]

I can’t change the channel 2008-11-03 11:28:10 I am addicted to reality television. The more asinine the more addicted to it I am. So of course most of the ones on my DVR are from MTV and VH1. The irony of this, I don’t really enjoy them as one watching their favorite show would. I yell at my television like most men [...]
Boy’s already?! No way 2008-11-25 17:47:03 So I got my oldest daughters preschool pictures back — which included a hilarious class picture. Anyway, she says two things about it….
1. “I’m sleeping”…literally that is what came out of her mouth. Which of course made me laugh because her eyes are shut in the picture.
2. Points at a little boy and says “That’s [...]
