[i don’t understand how the spice girls became popular]

I went camping/fishing over this weekend. It was quite fun outside of me coming insanely close to falling into the river at three in the morning. I tripped over a rock. Subsequently, I spent the next ten minutes attempting to pull my flashlight back out of the water with two sticks. […]

You sound like an old joke. You’re worn out, a bit broken.

Do you hear that ticking sound? That’s the sound of my biological clock like a metronome tick, tock, ticking in my ear. Tick, tock.
So I was thinking about various past relationships this morning, and it’s funny, really. Not in a “that’s a good joke I’ll repeat to my coworkers at the water cooler later” funny, […]

Go, Greased Lightning, you’re burning up the quarter mile.

Okay. This is sheer brilliance. From concept to execution, if I could marry a mixtape project, I’d be down on one knee right now. No joke. Plus, I’ve downloaded and listened, and it’s a fantastic mix. Bonus Jane Points for a Spanish version of “Secret Agent Man,” a classy font, and the Police. Extra Super […]

I’ll lay down this bottle of wine if you’ll just be kind to me.

So, in the past week at least three-fifths of TD and one TD mom have all been sick. And now, feeling rather well for the past couple days, I am again struck down on a Tuesday morning with some under-the-weather-ness. I’m also pretty sure my Really OTC OTC Claritin is what caused this latest throat […]

[this is a rant, because i’m not very happy]

Holy crap, I’m sick.
I wandered around Walgreens for fifteen minutes because, in spite of their proclamation to open at 7 AM, the pharmacist doesn’t get in until 9; this essentially makes their establishment an impotent excuse for a pharmacy and more into a glorified convenience store, albeit, one I can’t even gas up my truck […]

Ummm. I’m too lazy to think of a lyric.

So it seems I’ve contracted a terrible disease called laziness. At first I thought I was merely recovering from a serious state of exhaustion, but now it’s obvious I’ve been afflicted. So basically, I don’t want to do anything these days. I don’t even want to leave my house. I want to lounge in my […]

[i’m sorry, i don’t understand a word you just said]

So on my trip, in between the free drinks and bright lights, I did a significant amount of people watching. Trophy wives who hardly speak English seem to be all the rage still. I’ve always said I don’t really understand people and that still stands true today. Though, to be entirely fair, […]

[here’s a rant, because it’s been a while]

I get really annoyed by androgyny. I know some people find it attractive, but really, I just find it pretty antagonizing towards my senses. I want to know if you’re a boy or a girl. It’s just frustrating not knowing either way. Before I start sounding like a conservative asshat, I’m […]

[i am not a social experiment]

Is it just me, or is Hollywood starting to scam major on comic books for their new latest and greatest plot ideas? I have a hankering to see 30 Days of Night, but I have an idea that I’ll be more than disappointed with the big screen adaption. Oh yeah, and Whiteout is […]

This old world is going to reel and rock.

Let’s talk about harassment.
The way I see it, there’s two kinds: physical and verbal. Unfortunately, I have been the victim of both on multiple occasions. I’m not going to say one form is worse than the other, because they’re both terrifying in an unexplainable way.
The thing about being harassed is the level of helplessness and […]
