My First Experience With Curling
This blog was originally written and posted on Myspace on February 17, 2006 Around 4am this morning, Donny and I were watching a rebroadcast of the Olympic games. I never really pay attention to the Olympics unless there's some scandal beforehand. Like when that trailer trash girl paid someone to maim the horseface chick. Good stuff. Oh, and then there was the summer the Olympics were here in Atlanta and I turned into a female gymnastics groupie...but that's for another blog. It was during this rebroadcast that I discovered the lamest of all Olympic sports. Curling. As far as I can tell, it ...
Lost S6 Epi. 2 “What Kate Does”
I just wanna say that I already knew this episode would be slow and boring because I don't give a crap what Kate does. Anyway, better late than never. Previously on Lost: Sawyer and Juliet play house and then she dies. Sawyer blames Kate. Sayid dies, but not really. Everyone is all, "WTF?" And now... The translator dude tells Prince that Sayid is alive. Dun-dun-dun. Sawyer is all, 'It's so unfair that the Iraqi torturer who shoots kids lives, but my honey dies and stays dead." He wants to make a run for it. At the airport, Kate hijacks Claire's cab. The cabbie runs off ...
Snoopy McSnooperstein
I would like to point out right away that I was not snooping on purpose. Oh, I was snooping, but it was because the opportunity to do so kinda fell in my lap. Like, when you find a dollar on the street. You don't walk around looking for dollars on the street, but when one presents itself, you'd be a dumbass not to take it. And, quite frankly, even if I were looking to snoop, it would be my right seeing as how I carried her for nine months and went through 26 hours of labor (24 without drugs) and pushed ...
A House Is A House Is A House
As I type this, I am dying. I know what you're thinking, "We're all dying. Get over it, bitch." No. I am really dying. My throat is on fire, my body aches, I have chills, and to top it all off, my hair is a hot ass mess. (One day, I will figure out how to be sick and maintain a fabulous head of hair, but today ain't that day.) So, this whole dying thing wouldn't be so bad if it weren't for the fact that... 1. I am a Mommy and Mommies can't get sick. Why? Because no matter how awesome Daddy is ...
How Jenna Found Out I Loved Her – Part 3
Click here to read part one. Click here to read part two. Everything changed the weekend of the hiking trip. The church had organized a team-building outing for the youth group. I wasn’t very athletic and just the thought of hiking made my head ache. I would go because Jenna was going and my mother had insisted that Eloise and I participate in anything church related. We rode the church bus to the park; Eloise wore frayed shorts from Goodwill and a pair of sneakers that used to be mine. The running sneakers looked new since I’d barely worn them. My father complained ...
24 – Day 8, 8pm-9pm
Previously on 24: Agent Ortiz saves president Hassan's life. It's revealed that Hassan's brother was in on the attack. The assassin's body is emitting hazardous gas.

The following takes places between 8pm and 9pm... In Kamistan, a general gets a call from Hassan's bro. The general is annoyed that the plan hasn't gone as planned. Hassan's bro assures him that he almost has his hands on the uranium. Bazhaev's son is dying. He refuses ...

Mommy Monday: I Never Thought I’d…
There are times when Kali and Jack will be cuddled up, giggling over something he just did – or sometimes nothing at all – and she’ll look up and say, “I never thought I’d have a baby brother.” She’ll further explain that she kind of resigned herself to always being an only child. As we pack up the house for... [Read more of this review]
Mommy Monday: Facebook Fiend
It was bound to happen. Just a few short weeks after getting Kali a laptop for Christmas, she now has a Facebook account. Thanks to Windows 7, we’ve been able to closely monitor not just her internet use, but everything she does while on the computer. So, she won’t be tempted to stay up late doing God knows what while we sleep, we have a... [Read more of this review]
Mommy Monday: Getting To Know You
Your children assume that your life began the moment they were born. Kali is always shocked to find that I know things. “Oh my God, Mommy. How do you know this song? I’ve never heard it before.” “Um, cause it’s from 1982.” Once, we were headed upstairs with our dinner and I carried both of our plates and glasses. “You’re... [Read more of this review]
Mommy Monday: You Can’t Make Me!
I am painfully aware that everything I do is allowed only because my children are feeling charitable. Take changing Jack’s diaper for instance. Sometimes he lays there nice and calm and allows me to do what I have to do. Other times, he throws a major fit like his ass is covered in paper cuts and I’m using salt-soaked wipes. During the times... [Read more of this review]
