I never thought a man would understand women. Until I became, well…older.

March 28, 2012

I think the first time I was around maybe 34ish. Or so. Newly divorced.  And swore I just could never see myself being in my 40′s. Then I did it again when I was maybe 39ish?  Maybe?  I just know I was not 40. Yet. (Thank you, Jesus.) Then I did it again yesterday.  And [...]

And here’s what a naked face and ratty-ass, lookin-like-I-just-crawled-outta-bed hair will get you.

March 24, 2012

Well, it appears I have joined Kanye in the ranks of jackassism. This morning, I decided it was time to get back to doing something remotely healthy. Besides breathing. So, off to do my downtown walking and/or running, I go. Pumped up on 5-Hour Energy, a naked face and ratty-ass, lookin-like-I-just-crawled-outta-bed hair, I find a [...]

Urban Dictionary, where have you been all my life?

March 22, 2012

I’m not sure just where I’ve been for the last who-knows-how-many years, but I apparently haven’t taken full advantage of the exciting possibilities Urban Dictionary allows me. I fully intend to make up that valuable lost time. I will be the first to admit:  I might have a somewhat strange use of words at times. [...]

Giving the finger in my own special way.

March 17, 2012

So, I turned 43 last Wednesday. (Yeah, yeah.  Happy birthday to me.  Whatever.) (That ain’t what this is about.) Anyway.

HELLZ YEAH I [...]

Being accepted just the way I am isn’t so SCARY after all…

March 13, 2012

I don’t remember why I even emailed her in the first place.  Probably just to thank her for being so “real.” I never expected a reply. I mean, really?  Like ‘she’ would have time to respond to ‘me’? But she did. SCARY. To say I was shocked is putting it lightly. I think I got [...]

When the first word of the day is a curse word, I know it’s gonna be a good day.

March 9, 2012

“Daaaamn.  8:38 am.  Oh, yeah.” A cup of coffee.  With the gayest creamer I could find at the store the other day.  And sugar. Sit and watch it rain.  A lot. Email. Facebook. Another cup of coffee. Google Reader. Reading/commenting on loads of blogs because I’ve been a friggin slacker all week. Watch more rain. [...]

Sushi complicates life and yes, it matters I was born in March!

March 3, 2012

It seems like just last week I was digging around in my aunt’s closet trying on all her high heels and testing out her new blue eyeshadow while rocking out (as only an 8 year old can) to Fleetwood Mac. Now? It’s my turn. One of the nieces is spending the night with me. We [...]
