Looking for a few good elves. Or ninjas.

So I missed several more days (two, I think) since I dropped the ball on this NaBloPoMoFo, but hey, I have not been sitting around shoving pie in my pie hole (not too much anyway.) Let’s just say working the day after Thanksgiving? Not real fun. I now remember why I always took that day [...]

Every. Single. Year.

Every year I look forward to Thanksgiving with the glee most people reserve for Christmas. Every year I work like a bitch shopping, planning and cooking a huge meal. Every year I also get the house decorated for Christmas while I am cooking this spectacular meal. Every year I tell myself I will be glad [...]

Tomorrow

Tomorrow is my favorite holiday of the year. What is not to love about food and football? Not much I say. Traditional turkey, green beans, mashed potatoes and my beloved stuffing and wine, ending the evening with the greatest of holiday treats: chocolate pecan pie. Slap this fat woman and try to tell her she [...]

So close and yet I managed to fuck it up

I tried to do the NaBloPoMoFo challenge. I lasted until the 23rd. Aaaaand then I just forgot. I brought work home last night, so I was on the flippin’ computer, working until I had bony fingers, all evening long. But it didn’t hit me until I was in bed, past 11 p.m., that I didn’t [...]

Bake sale

Tomorrow we are having a bake sale in the office. It’s for a good cause. Shut up. I know. I promise I am not snacking like a beast. I bake cookies with one basic recipe and a bunch of different mix-ins: One eggA half cup of brown sugarA quarter cup of sugarA stick of softened [...]

I’ll be a little glad when November is over

I am dead tired because I’ve been up since 4 a.m. and when I tried to go back to sleep my cat stomped on me until I got up and filled his bowl. He then sniffed the bowl and walked away. That cat can be a first class twatburger. I had Dairy Queen Blizzard tonight. [...]

Fridays

Everybody loves Fridays. They do the Friday happy dance. Hooray for Friday. Thank God it’s Friday. You know what I think? Fuck Fridays. Friday is just another day of the work week. It’s the bitch that teases you cause it’s *almost* the weekend. Friday just cockblocks Saturday. But it’s not all bad. Friday NIGHTS are [...]

Book club

Tonight is my book club meeting and this is how much I suck: I totally didn’t read the book. Not that big of a deal you say? I couldn’t even remember, when asked a few minutes ago, what the title of the book was. Still not convinced of my suckage? I bought the freaking thing! [...]

Yeah, I got nothing really

The good thing about NaBloPoMoFo is that it gets a lazy blogger like me into the discipline of writing every day. The bad thing about NaBloPoMoFo is that some days, I have nothing even slightly interesting to write. And I am trying like hell not to make this blog a big old whine fest about [...]

People you want to know

Sometimes Twitter reminds me of the chat rooms from back in the early days of the InterWebz. It was a great way to virtually meet people and have fun interactions. What I loved about the chat rooms was I could escape who I was and be anyone I wanted. The anonymity of it was freeing [...]
