So I’ve been on a charting hiatus for the last couple of months.  Have many excuses: the husband works nights, no consistency in sleep patterns, moving again, this and that, lost another thermometer. But of course I really needed to … Continue reading →

Yahoo Answers, aka: where the dumbest people on earth congregate

Posted on June 24, 2008 by Amanda Broyles

Seriously. No, seriously. I thought the nest had dumb people.  BOTB is a freaking Mensa meeting in comparison to Yahoo Answers.  Never in my life have I had such a constant feeling of “oh my god what on earth are … Continue reading →

Oh. My. God.

Posted on June 2, 2008 by Amanda Broyles

There comes a point where you just have to laugh at your situation. I haven’t reached that point yet.  I’m still in the pissed as hell, everyone must die stage. So I go to the dr.’s office this morning.  Keep … Continue reading →

Wish me luck.

Posted on June 1, 2008 by Amanda Broyles

If only.

Posted on May 30, 2008 by Amanda Broyles

Another RISTLTMB (I have to really think that through each time I type it) today was “Getting yourself knocked up.” If only it was that easy!  I’d have been pregnant a year and a half ago!  Oh to dream.

Posted on May 26, 2008 by Amanda Broyles

So we went to the beach today.  Just a small little park tucked into the middle of nowhere.  Seriously the middle of nowhere- we had to pass by shipbuilders and cargo companies to get to it.  Pretty little area, nice … Continue reading →

Screw the RE

Posted on May 23, 2008 by Amanda Broyles
