I Will Be Signing Autographs

Well, it happened. The break I’ve been waiting for. This might be my last post because I’m headed out on the road y’all. Turns out the karaoke leader at the birthday party last night works for Universal Records and he was so enamored with my version of “Man! I Feel Like A Woman!” that he […]

Singin’ For My Supper

Tonight I blew the dust off of my old Shania Twain dvd video collection. It was a gift. I was young. No judging. The reason I got it out is that I have to re-learn “I Feel Like a Woman” for my dear friend Ashlee’s karaoke birthday party this Friday night. And I’m talking dance […]

Fumbling Towards Ecstasy

tumblr_lblfc4RUkp1qdz03r-1

As I was driving home from work tonight I made a disconcerting discovery about myself. I am so behind the times. I was listening to my favorite compact disc in my red, portable compact disc player attached to my car tape deck via adapter, when a short in the wires caused the song to bounce […]

It’s In the Wash

This weekend I: * Washed some windows * Washed 7 winter blankets * Washed the dog * Washed my face with a brand new bar of my favorite Burt’s Bees face soap * Washed and sterilized my kitchen counters * Watched Aaron wash his nose 794 times * Washed my hair (I no longer look […]

Warning: What you are about to read may be disturbing and unsettling to some readers. It has been rated OMG. Until tonight, I’ve never had mole sauce. Please, before you throw your computer out the nearest window, let me explain. I’m not even entirely sure I knew what it was until this year. And I’m […]

Debt Prevention Plan

No, it’s not too early for pasta. You see, here in approximately 15 minutes, I’m headed to Whole Foods for my weekly grocery run. Whole Foods is to foodies what Disney World is to kids. If I’m not properly prepared for this trip, I’ll end up spending my retirement savings on Himalayan pink salt and […]

The Crying Game

tumblr_lbgylc2dv31qdz03r

My house is crying. It looks and feels like someone had surgery a few days ago. It’s calling out to me, begging for attention. I think I even heard a snarky whisper, “stop blogging and start making me pretty already.” I point to the man with the missing nose and say, “do you SEE what […]

Playing With Fire

I know. I know. I cooked shrimp like 5 minutes ago. But when the man with the dangling nose requests shrimp with green beans and rice, I obey. I jump up and down like a 5-year old girl about to pee her pants because she loves shrimp so much, then I get to cooking. I […]

In Sickness and In Health

tumblr_lbc1kuCfOJ1qdz03r

Today this happened to my poor husband: Bilateral Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery, Septoplasty and Turbinectomy. In short, a doctor punched him in the nose. All went well, and he should recover just fine in a few days, given the amount of pain pills his doctor gave him, the pounds of chocolate pudding I bought him […]
