Stuff I Should Think About Regretting Later

It’s about a bag. And me. OK…it’s about two bags. And a brownie.

Big Ass Bag 1

Every couple of weeks, I’m required to travel for the job. (“Required?”  I don’t think so.  I begged to take the position.  More like groveled.) (Before I got hitched.) (Now, when I’m gone that one night every other week, it makes Keith miss me.) (Really bad.) (Which is really good.)  (For me.) Anyway. A friend [...]

Apparently lots of hair, ink and skates DO go together. Who would have thought?

July 9, 2012

Because I was invited.  That’s why. When Stacie, the middle sister called and said, “Hey.  Forgot to tell you you’re invited to go with a group of us tonight to the Texas Roller Derby Girls downtown…you’re going right?” “HELLZ YEAH!” was about the only thing that came to mind.  And out of my mouth. (Well, [...]

Not much to report other than lots of hoopin’ and hollerin’. And well, I might’ve grown a beard.

June 15, 2012

In all my 43 years, not once do I remember being called “low-key.” Or “subtle.” Or “tranquil.” Or “serene.” SO WHY START NOW? First.  ‘Dallas’. I literally turded on the floor when I realized JR was shot 32 YEARS AGO. (Yeah.  Turded.) (I know.  I’m a picture of class.) If anyone would have simply said, [...]

Steer clear of sky-high bookcases and ass-breathers. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.

My Book

“I like how she’s open and real and isn’t afraid to talk about things that affect her.  Like her having depression and anxiety and stuff like that.” That’s what Katie said about The Bloggess when we were headed downtown Austin last night to see The Bloggess at her book signing. “Yeah.  I can appreciate that.  I’ve [...]

Don’t assume I get high because I have a heavy twang.

April 13, 2012

It is really no secret I have an accent. Ok.  A twang. And it’s heavy. I know this. Usually the first words I hear after meeting someone for the first time is, “Oh, my goodness you have that Texas twang.” No shit. I’ve lived here in Texas all my life.  Except for about 6 weeks [...]

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. I received the best cards, most phenomenal hugs, most gorgeous flowers, best ever Facebook comments and just more love than I deserve. However, I did receive something a bit odd. Silly Putty. HELLZ YEAH I [...]

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. [...]

Let’s see…I’m a douchebag and I suck at math. Yeah, that about sums it up.

You gotta admit, we all have these guilty pleasures and things in life we just can’t help but love. You might not admit it, but you secretly love it. Like, some can’t help but love Twilight. Some can’t help but love Snooki. Some can’t help but love prunes. Well, I’ve never hidden the fact that [...]

I kinda felt like a referee at a never-ending press conference.

February 17, 2012

“I call shotgun.” “No fair.  Aunt Carrie she always gets the front.” “Move your seat up, Stupid!  You’re crushing my foot!” “You’ve had the iPad long enough.  Give it to me, it’s my turn.” “Put it baaaack!  That was my favorite song!” (It was then…and only then:  My nieces agreed on something.) (And that was [...]

Please don’t think you can be a better me. You can’t. Hell, I can’t.

January 28, 2012

Let me warn you now.  This might be the very time I should keep my mouth shut. Things in life have been pretty busy this week.  And I’m a creature of habit.  So, I haven’t been able to keep up with the blogs I read on a regular basis, as well as a few other [...]
