Maybe it’s me. Maybe I’m just a buzzkill. I recently had a birthday. I got grief for not making a big deal out of this. It wasn’t a big, round number- I turned 52. Not a big deal. I honestly forgot about it until the night before. No, I’m not trying to deny I’m getting older. It’s obvious when I… Read more »
Today is the day to embrace your dark side- it’s the Festival of Unmentionable Thoughts! Every single one of us has the occasional crazy dark thought. Wondering what would happen if you swerved into oncoming traffic. Wondering if you could fake your death and start all over with a new identity. Wondering what would happen if you rage quit your… Read more »
We are in the midst of football season, which is the only sport I really follow. As a Dolphins fan I’ve seen a lot of bad seasons- including going 1 and 15 in 2007. Only true fans stuck with them through that. Or so I thought. For those of you who don’t follow football, the Dolphins are having their… Read more »
Some people idolize rock stars. Some people idolize athletes. Some people idolize Donald Trump. And some people idolize Elon Musk. I’ve already written plenty- and probably will write more again down the road- on what a piece of shit Donald Trump is. But today we’re taking a deeper look at Elon Musk, the sometimes richest man on Earth who has… Read more »
Here is a day that I don’t think should even exist. It’s National Kale Day. I think most of us can agree that kale has worked its way into places it never needed to go. Like in our mouths. Fun fact- until recent years, the largest purchaser of kale were buffet restaurants who used them to decorate – not… Read more »
Class reunions. Some people love them. Some people hate them. Last weekend was my husband’s 40th class reunion. I had a good time and learned a few new things about Pat! One big conversation topic of the night was the low turnout, and that attendance has been steadily declining over the past few reunions. No one really had a good… Read more »
So I finally saw the Barbie movie. At first I wasn’t interested, then I thought I was, then I thought I wasn’t because Will Ferrell was in it (my hatred of Will Ferrell is another topic for another day), and then I decided I had to see it because of all the hype. And maybe all the hype was the… Read more »
Some kids are already back in school. Most of the rest will be going back in the next couple weeks. And almost all of them have one thing in common- they attend schools that put sports above everything else, especially fine arts. In most towns it’s easy to get a huge crowd for a football game. It’s a lot harder… Read more »
There is a long running joke that you need to make sure you have someone lined up to delete your browser history if you die suddenly. I guess because there is porn or something? I must be the most boring person on Earth, because my search history is pretty dull. Here is the list of what’s on my laptop history… Read more »
I am battling a miserable bug. At first I thought it was just a cold, but I’ve had multiple fever spikes of 102F which seems odd for a cold. I’ve taken a couple COVID tests, so I know it’s not that. Regardless, I’ve been spending a lot of time sleeping- sometimes with a fever. And I have had some true… Read more »
