Ugh. You've all seen it, right? A bunch of celebrities singing over video chat for......whatever reason, I'm not really sure? For Coronavirus, I guess? To cheer us all up? The reason I can't tell is because it was just weird, out of nowhere, and annoying. My first thought when I saw it was: "Why?"…
Just Call Us Bruce Wayne and Vicky Vale: Holy Bat Cave, Batman!
So, for the past few months our family has been living with a bat. We have a bat cave. We used to call it the "attic above the garage", but now it's a bat's apartment. And I don't like it. The whole saga began several months ago, in the early Fall. I woke up…
My Love/Hate Relationship With Valentine’s Day
It's February. It's cold, it's dreary, and despite being the shortest month of the year, it feels like the longest. I suppose it's because I'm always just anxiously awaiting March when Spring begins- and it's the month I was born in so, ya know, it's just the best month, obviously. (Sorry, that is just the…
The Coat Closet “Situation”
Ugh, I hate winter. I'm one of those people who apparently suffer from that seasonal disorder where lack of sunshine makes you pissy. The long (mostly) frigid days and cabin fever are starting to get to me; my emotional state varies from "Are you still alive?" lethargy to "DAMN GIRL, settle down!" Which is probably…
“Sexy Pennywise” and Other WTF Halloween Costumes
Damn, do I love Halloween! The pumpkins, the candy, the decorations it's all just good fun. But my favorite part are the Halloween costumes dressing up as someone or something else for a night is awesome. I used to be an actor so being a character for a night is my jam, it's just in…
My Love/Hate Relationship With The Bachelor
Confession time: I'm a a fully fledged member of "Bachelor Nation". I watch 'em all- The Bachelor, The Bachelorette, Bachelor in Paradise, and where the hell did Bachelor Pad go? I really liked that one most of all. They all screwed each other- literally and figuratively- for money, and it was reality T.V. gold. Anyway, it's…
Hey, Television! Can You Learn To Keep Your Big Mouth Shut?
Television shows talk about everything these days, and for the most part I'm pretty cool with that. The days of extreme censorship appear to be in the past, which is fine, I think- the censors used to go way too far. Did you know that when Joan Rivers was pregnant with her daughter back…
When Gender Reveal Parties Go Horribly Wrong
If you have friends of childbearing age (or have ever been on Pinterest for even 5 minutes), you have probably heard of a new trend called Gender Reveal Parties. These parties are sort of like a baby shower, but the purpose of these parties are usually a grand gesture to reveal the gender of your…
My Foray Into Self-Inflicted Torture: The Brazilian Wax
It's no secret that women do strange things in the name of beauty, and I'm no exception. But I think the craziest has to be exercise in madness that I got myself into today.... I'm about to leave for a family vacation; a Disney Cruise. (Shout out to Disney, they are best cruise line…
5 Types of Buyers You Meet While Selling Girl Scout Cookies
It's that time again- Girl Scout Cookie Season! My daughter is a Brownie and trust me, cookie season is a big deal. It's like a 5 week Super Bowl for Girl Scouts, it's insane. But it's awesome, too, and the girls get very excited to sell. This is the big money maker for the troops.…
