Family Ties

Polls are fun. Especially when you design one in a pale shade of grey and it comes up all Helly Kitty and stuff when you publish it. I’m not closing the post down yet, in the interest of rocking the vote, Election Day and a hope that Bill Clinton might reprise his swinging [...]

Hmmmmmm.

Kris, I really wish you’d write more about . . .

Your strange relationship with food and wine

Travel beyond the motherland of New Jersey

Those strange, neurotic habits/thoughts/obsessions you allude to but never provide pictures of

Your lengthy history failed relationships

Your beloved cats, and the dogs, birds, fish and hermit crabs you owned before that

Nothing, I’m pretty much [...]

Just five more minutes, ma

5:00 am. Bug maws and paws until I am awake. I ignore him.
5:30 I choose getting up to feed the hairy ones over throwing either one or both out of the window. Trip over Cricket as she skids across hardwoods to the kitchen.
6:30 Cell phone alarm goes off, screaming Ain’t No Other Man until [...]

Even a chocolate-covered strawberry didn’t do the trick

I’m annoyed, cranky, and generally foul today (think a bag of potatoes left under the sink for too long; not the ones that have grown cute horns but the ones that smell of death. Those ones.)

Their reasons, and my reactions*, [...]

Promises, promises

I have a secret. Shhhh. I don’t post every day.
This irritates me. Not sure why.
I’ve decided I want something new on this site on a daily basis, so I’m going to at least update the l’il pink box on the right. Every day that I’m not on a zip wire [...]

I’m a Size 2

I lie.
A lot.*
For those who know me in the Real World: DC, don’t fret; I lie not to you, close confidantes and drinking acquaintances, but instead to strangers. On the Metro. In the freaking Dress Barn (please don’t ask me what I was ever doing in Dress Barn; surely flashbacks and non-hilarity would ensue). [...]

E-Discord

I have to admit that it has been one of the best online relationships I’ve ever had. We have spent an awful lot of time together – it’s embarrassing, really – late nights until I almost couldn’t keep my eyes open, early mornings, moments I’d steal away while at work just to see what he [...]
