1. You wear your shirt inside out and don’t notice until the end of the day. I did this last Tuesday. I was sitting in class Tuesday night, looked down, and realized the embroidery on my shirt was inside out… yeah, it was one of those weeks. 2. You spend ten minutes thinking about where you put your car keys. And then you realize you are driving. I don’t even remember what day last week I did this. 3.

I have a lot of shoes. I know, y’all must be shocked to hear this. My problem, much like most other women’s has to do with owning too many shoes, and not having enough storage space.

Is A Birthing Plan Necessary?

  I wrote the following post for Yahoo a few years ago, right before giving birth to my son. Even though I am no longer pregnant, and will not be again, I have had two people ask me to repost it.

Drunk Posting: What I Really Think Of Sarah Palin…. Over Four Years Later.

I don’t normally talk much about my beliefs in religion or politics but I’ve had 2 beers and a shot of vodka so I had the not so genius idea of DRUNK POSTING! I might fuck up facts because I’m drunk, people! I’m sure to be a blathering idiot and I’m fine with that. No amount of harsh comments can…

    It is Spring, and if you are anything like me, you will want pretty plants in your back yard, on your porch, or wherever you may keep such things.

    Everyone has been talking a lot about serendipity lately. By “everyone” I mean two people. And by “a lot” I mean it has been mentioned once.
