Friday Stand-up!

As if we weren’t all aware, it is almost the freakin’ weekend, and I’m gonna have me some fun (I always felt a little bad about how much I love that song, since R. Kelly apparently likes to pee on children, but I guess for me, a catchy refrain can forgive a multitude of sins). [...]

Is this thing on?

Anyone who knows me in person knows that I am the WORST at hiding my emotions. If I think your shit stinks, trust me, you know that I think your shit stinks. And not because I would ever tell you so (my Momma is from the South and she taught me nothing if not to [...]

Oh my god, are you pregnant?

Ever since I hiked the Appalachian Trail, I have been much more in tune with my body(and I don’t mean in that way, you dirty dirty).  Before that, I never really correlated what I was doing to my body with how I felt.  But when I was hiking 20+ miles a day, I really had to take constant [...]

Friday Stand-up

I’m not going to lie.  I’m a little bummed because I thought I was going to have a snow day today and instead I’m sitting in my office hard at work (can’t you tell).  So, to cheer me up, how about a little Friday Stand-up!?
First, we have a short clip from comedian Martha Kelly:

This second video is a [...]

Warning, this post is boring.

One thing I didn’t count on, when deciding to start this blog, was the responsibility I feel to write, even when I don’t have much to say.  I’ve been trying for the last couple of days to think of something interesting to write about, to no avail. 
So, I’ll just tell you about my week (please feel free [...]

The internet is a weird place.

I’m endlessly fascinated by the things people type into a search engine that then leads them to this blog.  For the most part, its clear how they got here.  For instance, the most common search I get is “Don’t mind the man behind the curtain.“  I get a least one of those a day.  I understand [...]

Friday Stand-up!!

Kids, we’ve done it.  We’ve made it through another week.  And for that I reward us all with the gift of laughter that you can only get from the latest installment of  Friday Stand-up!  Oh, and if you can’t see it in your feed reader, there are videos here, funny ones even!
This first clip is comedian Patton [...]

The obligatory VD post.

I know I’m supposed to be saying that Valentine’s day is for the birds because its a grossly commercialized holiday designed to make single people feel less-than (which it totally is) and I want no part of it.  But its just that I have an amazing husband and I don’t mind an excuse to make a nice meal together [...]

I was running…

Yeah, I know, Forest Gump quotes are more than a little past their prime.   But cut me some slack, people!  BF and I have been up until almost 1 am every night this week engrossed in the last Harry Potter book (read by the amazing Jim Dale), so I haven’t been getting much sleep.  
Anyway, I just wanted [...]

Pee-pod.

Add another chapter to my ongoing saga of gym-related hi-jinks.  Today, like most days, I decided to go down to the gym during lunch time (more because I’ll do anything to make the day go faster, not because I’m really into working out).  Being the multitasker I am, I was sitting on the toilet, doing my [...]
