I recently wrote about my little issue with Proper Names and how they have vanished from my brain. Here's a couple of examples of this from this past week: Ran into a friend and her son while out running errands one night. The mom and I chatted, the boy says "Hi Ms N" and I... Continue Reading →
Memo to the young whippersnappers – you have it WAY too easy!
No time to focus on writing from my own brain even though I have a couple of percolating posts - BUT - this was sent in an email to me today and is so damn funny that I know everyone will enjoy this. I wish I knew who to credit. This is the entire forwarded... Continue Reading →
Funny spam, post of the week & just who is Michaelangelo?
Some days, the spam filter misses one or two and for some reason this morning's slip up made me giggle - I mean, REALLY - why would you even respond to this one? I guess I just don't understand the allure of most spam messages. Do they even work? They must in order to justify... Continue Reading →

Meaning that in order to read the whole post, I would *have* to... Continue Reading →

Anyhoo, as I gather energy and recover... Continue Reading →

Which then made me think of the Itchy and Scratchy show (for some reason just seeing them makes me giggle): And now TELL ME... Continue Reading →
Weekend Open Thread – Worst Thing Ever!
Love C&H and those irreverent silly faces. Just what is needed to head to the weekend. For those who follow my twitters, you know the boys tag teamed their stoopid this week tempting me to just leave them to their own devices. They are slowly redeeming themselves by doing chores - some even were done... Continue Reading →
