So I've been an idiot and gotten the navel piercing infected.  I've always been a "fast healer" and it was looking fine, so I got lazy and stopped cleaning it every day.  I've had my ears pierced forever and I don't have to do anything special to take care of them, so I figured once the other piercing had healed, that would be it.  It would seem ( Read more... )

I love my little dog.  BUT.....he has an underwear fetish.  And he's a crotch chewer.  And he apparently prefers them "used".  Ewwww.  I was finishing up the laundry last night and noticed that I didn't have any undies to put away, whereas all other family members had several pairs.  Strange.  Then I went to vacuum under the couch in the living ( Read more... )

The oldest has an ear infection and SHRIEKED for over an hour because his ear was killing him.

So I decided to go ahead and start this journal...I'm actually supposed to be doing this on a daily basis, but the paper and pencil method lasted about 30 seconds the first day I started. I got a cramp. :( I was always a pretty good writer in school, but I never really enjoyed the process. In fact, I pretty much hated it. So I'm giving this a ( Read more... )
