Dear bar down the street;
I had the privilege the other night to visit your fine establishment for the first time. As I usually do, I took a moment to “take it all in” and have come to the conclusion that nine times out of ten, you … Continue reading
Dear gnats;
It is that time of year again where you feel the need to annoying the ever living piss out of me, and I imagine everyone else you come into contact with. I have a feeling that I speak for millions … Continue reading
May the guilt be with you.
It is no secret that Catholics have a wee bit of a guilt issue. Outside of our Jewish brethren I’d say we, as a culture, corner the market on it. I think we come by it honestly though. Back in … Continue reading
Occupying brain space.
I don’t think it is out of the realm of possibility that after I die and give my body to science, that the people who cut into my brain will exclaim, “My god! This woman stored a lot of worthless crap up … Continue reading
Geek confession revisited.
Seeing as I have spent a grand total of at least 18 hours watching Dr. Who reruns in the last week or so I figured it was time to revisit and perhaps amend this post. I am a geek. Now … Continue reading

The smartass apples and their tree.
My mother is a wonderful woman. A wonderful woman who has the habit of latching onto phrases and repeating them ad naseum. Here’s just a few examples. 1. That’s too much soap. -My sister and I joke that we are … Continue reading
Dear Mr. Steve Jobs;
Hello. First off, I’m a big fan. Not quite fangirl status but close. Ipod, iphone, Mac: all of it. Big fan. However it has come to my attention that you have not been to south Georgia. I mean I don’t … Continue reading

You don’t know me, no really, you don’t
It always starts one of two ways: The double take followed by numerous furtive glances. Perhaps a whisper or two. Then, gaining courage, a tentative “do I know you from fillintheblank?” or “Hey girlfriend I haven’t seen you in awhile … Continue reading
I’m a bad blogger friend type of person
Well I’m a bad member of the “blogging community” if you will in the first place. Outside of a few, I don’t hardly read any blogs. I’m more of a serious eats/apartment therapy blog follower and those don’t really count. … Continue reading
Dear Walgreens,
(again with Walgreens, I know, but really I shop there for pretty much everything besides groceries and it’s right down the street and there really isn’t ever a line and dear god I need a support group) I am writing … Continue reading
The blood pressure likes this option better.
I’ve been in a “what to write about” rut for awhile now and while I could go completely batshitcrazy over irressponsible people and why they shouldn’t ever get a pet if they have no intention of taking care of them … Continue reading

Let’s talk grammar.
I am in no way an expert. A snob for sure, but not an expert. I think I actually addressed my often repeated grammatical errors in an earlier post. But (Bazinga! (yes I am a Sheldon Cooper fan) An error right off … Continue reading
Please don’t call the cops.
It is open window weather here in south Georgia (ducks all my yankee brethren who are still buried under snow) which in this house is both a blessing and a curse. Blessing- I have three dogs. No matter how many times a … Continue reading
Pitch the pink.
I didn’t always live in south Georgia. Actually I’ve lived in places that make south Georgia look like the tropics. Places that you actually long for summer. Places where the cold gets so deep in your bones you don’t notice … Continue reading
Dear Google, I hate you. Love, Me
Don’t get me wrong google- there are times where I love you. There are times that if I had any greater amorous feelings towards you I’m pretty sure there’d be a fourth grader running along at any moment telling me to marry … Continue reading
I’m such a bad daughter
Seriously. I’ve always been calendar challenged. It got much better when I had a job because every Saturday and Sunday I was in mass and had to keep up with what weekend it was and all that crap. Now that I … Continue reading
Another video release- Neat Little Rows
If they do nothing else right (which they do, but let’s just say for sake of argument they dont’), Elbow knows how to build up to an album release. They recently released a video for a second song off of … Continue reading

A multi-day endeavor of random thoughts
– I love it how cows eat really slowly and with little movement because when you drive up on a group of them it looks like they are posing for a picture for you. -Liz Lemon is my hero. -I … Continue reading
Pet Peeve of the moment- The National Anthem
One of my favorite versions of a sports event national anthem. For my entire life, my parent’s entire life, and perhaps a good chunk of my grandparent’s lives (I think the tradition started sometime after WWII maybe? I’ll go look … Continue reading
2010 in review- thank you dog sex
I am posting this solely so people can see that I am not imagining the excessive dog sex RISTLTMB. If it weren’t for that and the paint in my house it is quite possible I wouldn’t have any traffic! Frightening. … Continue reading
