reading time: 3 minutes Every year, this day is bittersweet for me. On one hand, it is my son Donovan’s birthday. But on the other hand, it is the anniversary of a dark day in American history. I was still a soldier then, on active duty at Fort Lee, VA. I will never forget […]
reading time: < 1 minute That is all I have today. Ouch. I have hardly slept the past couple of days and what little sleep I have had has hardly been worth it. My back is freakin’ killing me and I feel like I am 100 years old. Too much on my mind and no […]
reading time: 2 minutes I hopped on to Facebook this morning, hoping for a little stress-free playing around, only to be greeted with a message from an immature idiot who apparently needs to get a life. This idiot, despite their own issues that have landed them in all kinds of legal trouble already, whether directly […]
reading time: 2 minutes Bleary-eyed & dragging ass,… Blah. That is the basic intelligence level I have got going on at the moment. I think it is going to take at least 2 more cups of coffee before I really achieve any kind of actual thought process. To say I didn’t get much sleep […]
reading time: 3 minutes A present for me,… I bought a new dress for myself yesterday, which I LOVE. It is a pink and borwn paisley kimono-style dress from Mlle Gabrielle, a designer for, um,… bigger girls above size anorexic 4. You can see it HERE. I am now just hoping that it gets […]

reading time: 2 minutes The first day of summer vacation and I am up at 0700. What is up with that BS?! Dedication to my eldest, apparently, who had to be at his friend Ashley’s at 0830, a destination he very nearly did NOT make. Why? Because of the usual arrogant, condescending attitude that […]
reading time: < 1 minute Anyone know of a good recipe or pattern utilizing a cat, or two cats? Since I don’t know which of the little shits is the culprit, I have sentenced them both as guilty, if nothing else, than by association of species. I had a big clean load of laundry from […]
reading time: 4 minutes Sometimes, I just want to hide. There are days when I just want to run away and hide some place where no one knows me, no one is demanding anything of me, no one is there to take advantage of me, no one is there to hurt me. I am […]
reading time: 3 minutes What the HELL?! It is a damn good thing that I am somewhat level-headed. Not only is it good for a group of junior high boys, but it is good for me, too. Why? Because orange prison jumpsuits look AWFUL on me! Oh, you mean, why is it good for […]
