The World is Your Trash Recepticle

While we are on the subject of driving, I feel I should address those of you who keep a messy car. I take no issue with someone wanting to clutter their own space as I too have been known to let my back seat pile up. What I do have a problem with is when… Continue reading The World is Your Trash Recepticle

Kindly Get Out of My Way

I remember driver's ed like it was yesterday. For some reason I loved that class and I can still recall most of what I learned about the rules of the road; the little things like, who has the right of way at a 4-way stop sign or how to merge into a rotary. I'm guessing… Continue reading Kindly Get Out of My Way

Spreading The Love?

I think I hate Valentines day. Before you go getting upset, let me explain myself; I love Valentines day (no I'm not trying to contradict myself). What I hate are the people who bitch about the holiday and act like they are badass because they are rejecting the whole concept. You are not super cool, we… Continue reading Spreading The Love?

Things I Don’t Need In Bulk

I should say upfront that I adore BJ's Wholesale Club, I love a bargain and I love being able to get the foods that I want in large quantities so I never run out. Yet, while browsing the aisles recently I was struck by certain items that I felt were a little insane to buy… Continue reading Things I Don’t Need In Bulk

Celebrity Babies

While scrolling through today's entertainment news I came across freshly released photos of Mariah Carey's twins... Monroe and Moroccan. I couldn't make that up if I tried, they really named them that. While trying to figure out if that was enough fodder for todays post I scrolled to the next story about Beyonce and Jay-Z's newborn... wait for… Continue reading Celebrity Babies

I’m Just Saying…

Ok, I haven't talked about something on this blog yet because I was nervous that readers would judge me. I can't really get around it anymore because it is a problem that exists and with 325 days left for me to write this year I can't exactly avoid any topic. So I'll just get right… Continue reading I’m Just Saying…

Life Lessons From A Simple-Minded Dog

My step-father Andy found Ichabod as a puppy while walking through the woods. He was all skin and bones and he was inside of a flipped over pet carrier at the bottom of a ravine. He had clearly been dumped there and left to die. He had scars, all his ribs were showing and he… Continue reading Life Lessons From A Simple-Minded Dog

York Peppermint Patties

While we are on the subject of parents and candy, I'm suddenly inspired to reminisce about a candy I consider very influential in my life. My father always had York Peppermint Patties; he would buy the giant dispenser box at wholesale markets and he usually carried a few with him. They were the after meal… Continue reading York Peppermint Patties

The All-American Shopping Cart

Ever since joining weight watchers I find I have a new problem I can't seem to get away from. I judge other people at the grocery store based on what is in their shopping carts... but can you blame me? Have you seen what some people buy?!?! Have you noticed what people don't buy? I… Continue reading The All-American Shopping Cart

The Komen Flop

It all makes perfect sense, stop funding for breast exams because the same people giving the exams are also performing abortions. If we punish the people at Planned Parenthood for their crazy liberal practices we will save the lives of thousands of unborn babies. Who really gives a hoot if thousands of  women go undiagnosed… Continue reading The Komen Flop
