Hangnails piss me off.

Anyone got a pair of clippers I can borrow? I’m about to gnaw my thumb off trying to get rid of this godforsaken annoyance.

Well… that was awkward.

This weekend has been great. I am feeling better and like a human being again! The video I posted last night was fueled by beer and cigarettes while Little J destroyed my apartment with her sleepover buddy and J was off working at a basketball game. It was a lot of fun… for me. I’ll … Continue reading →

Dog shit.

That’s what I feel like. At first I thought it was residual recovery from Saturday night’s shenanigans… drinking and dancing until Xfinity Live! in Philadelphia closed. Now I think I’m just getting sick. My chest is tight, my cough is gut wrenching, my head is killing me and my entire body aches. Not just the parts … Continue reading →

My party of 3 is heading outdoors to assess the play situation. Specifically, to test the small hill … Continue reading →

Seeking: A little peace.

This morning, like so many mornings of my life, I flew off the handle. Yelled and screamed. Raged on my innocent little 8-year-old daughter. Totally acted like a goddamn fool. Why?

Ummm, excuse me?!

I guess I should be used to it by now, but I refuse to just “get over it”. I am absolutely sick & tired of people making rude ass remarks to me. Even if they don’t mean any harm and especially when I’ve done nothing to ask for them. Little J & I just returned … Continue reading →
