A Treatise Towards Men
I have often said that I have had the incredible fortune to be surrounded by wonderful men in my life. Not to downplay the also wonderful women, but too many people have too many negative experiences with the men in their lives. This is for the good ones, and I suspect they are more common than many might think ( Read more... ) -
Warning: there may be foul language within
I am so fucking pissed right now. I just received my statement for my direct deposit from temple. contained within was a post-it from the payroll bitch (who has fucked things up before) stating that i wasnt paid for my work at religious school during October because i didn't sign my attendance sheet. I have never been told to do so, and I was paid ( Read more... ) -
It worked! Yay!
I've had a lot of times in my life when I have had close friends. But for some reason they have almost always dropped suddenly out of my life with no explanation. Every time it happens, I analyze the situation as best as I can from only my perspective and try to figure out what I did wrong and how to not let it happen again. But the patterns ( Read more... ) -

Politics
I love the country in which I live. To me, the best part of it is that we all have the freedom to express our opinions without legal repercussion. Any person can vehemently express disagreement with anyone else, up to and including the office of the president. It was quite a revolutionary concept in its inception, and even today it is quite rare.

Faith
I've always been amazed by my dad. He had some of the most interesting stories of odd jobs he had through the years; he was the only alcoholic I had heard of who stopped drinking by just stopping drinking; he realized he wasn't that great of a father to his first family, so he made a point of being better to us. He may not have always had things ( Read more... ) -
Careful What You Wish For
So I'm going through some stuff in life and thought I'd write about it. It's been a long time since I've done any writing on here, but I thought I'd give it a shot again, especially since I just discovered I can link this to Facebook. Anyway...
When movies and television shows talk about little girls they frequently talk about how they dream of ( Read more... ) -
Another day, another entry
I've been having nasty sinus trouble lately, mostly due to Missouri's lovely airborne allergens, especially mold. I've been on over-the-counter medications for a couple weeks now, and it's not really making a huge difference; mostly my symptoms are merely lessened. I have a well-earned doubt of doctors (maybe I'll make an entry about that some time ( Read more... ) -
Long time no write...yeah, yeah....the wait is worth it!
I'm a big fan of including lots of fiber in my diet. It makes things taste yummy, while not making you uncomfortably full. It's good. Last week I made a batch of Fiber 1 muffins from a box mix, and they were as delicious as expected, and I knew I wanted to make more.
So tonight on our way home, I dropped Joe off at home to let Lily out, and I went ( Read more... ) -
Oh, the Horror...
Well, my dears, I realize that after my return, I have yet again disappeared. But for good reason. I have been too stressed to think about the problem enough to write about it. Sometimes writing about things makes them more real.
So, on to the issue. Sunday morning Joe and I awoke to a lovely surprise in our basement. Five feet of standing ( Read more... )
