HelLO nurse!
Remember how I was all the time whining how the techdoofs should hire some single, 6′7″ matt dillon look alike? Well I just saw archie, the head of techdoofdom, wandering around the halls with an interviewee. Umm, he’s about 6′7″ and cute! Yummy! I plan to get the entire scoop once the interviewee departs [...]

in my never-ending attempts to shock and appall you, i must admit that i love tim mcgraw’s song “don’t take the girl.” i love it. i love it so much i listen to it about 34 times a day. it’s sandwiched between bad religion’s “entropy” and weezer’s “i just threw out the love of my [...]

Hello darling ones.
After last night’s emotional outpouring, I am feeling a little beaten and shaky. Last night proved to be pretty brutal. I was a wreck and I am not even sure why. I feel like I came out of the closet or something. Maybe I did. Admitting it is the first step and [...]

this was the hardest thing i’ve ever written in my entire life. i sobbed. i sobbed so hard i made noises that alarmed the cats. i’ve sobbed so much that i can’t hardly keep my eyes open. i am tired.

I think I might have been possessed by anna quindlen and the voice of the lady who was reading “black and blue” to me on my way to work this morning.
I drove into the parking lot around 9:05. I was still sitting there, in my car, baking in the early morning summer heat at 9:37. [...]

from sister #3: “hahahahahha, smart, and funny too. I wonder why you are still single. You are a real good catch.” i can’t tell if she’s being sarcastic.

i went to bed at 10 o’clock last night. for good reason. i had one of those stabbing headaches above my left eye. i think that was the eye i kept open while trying to type. so yes, i went to bed at 10. the phone rang at 10:30, it was some sort of telemarketer, [...]

nobdoy likes a weepy, sloppy drunk. even though i am not sure how sloppy drunk i am, becaue really i only had 3.4 beers in two hours. maybe that’s really a lot of beers, i can’t seem to remember. but we had gobs of appetizers and really there is not excuse for a big, giant [...]

i am babysitting jaycie and max this morning while sister #2 goes to the eye doctor. 2-year-old max has decided the name jodi doesn’t quite suit me. though he still delights in saying, “jodi you grodie!”
“jodi we will call you sugar.”
“what?”
“your name is sugar.”
“umm, ok.”
a while later. . .
“sugar i am hungry. i need a [...]

so as if the job hellishness isn’t enough frustration, i begin the quest for a car. i was surfing around online, looking for reliability ratings, pricing, dos and don’ts, how not to get skammed, lease vs. buy, blah, blah, blah. it’s so overwhelming i could cry.
so i’ve decided this. i really, really, really, [...]

today is one of those days that will try the patience of saints and patience has never been one of my virtues.

if you will look, way down over younder, on the right (under the good taste club), you’ll notice i added a greatest hits section. those are my favorites. i am most curious if you agree.

i am in love with my mean, green lean, george foreman grilling machine. it rules! throw a chicken breast, peppers and onions on there, shake pepper about generously and voila! tasty food. it’s easy, it’s wonderful, it’s moderately healthy. but i must admit i am tempted to grill me up some cheezy weenies on there. [...]

he called me wonderful.

Expand your powers of creation. . . that’s one of the lines I toyed with and quickly put the ol’ kibosh on. It made me laugh and laugh. Powers of creation, it makes me think of procreation and having like super sperm or being incredibly fertile. Really, it makes me think of that scene in [...]
