Vacation blues...
Yes, I've ranted about this ever since I got here, and don't get me wrong: I DO love my children, and I positively ADORE my two-year-old grandson. But it's been no secret to anyone that I have absolutely no patience with lesser brats; i.e. other people's "rug rats." Too many people spawn their obnoxious little bastards and seem to have no clue ( Read more... ) -
About those "feminists" who give ALL of them a bad name...
If I see one more freaking editorial about the Hobby Lobby brouhaha, I think I'm gonna scream!! I've seen DOZENS of these over the past few days! So the eff *what* if a particular employer doesn't want to pay for your freaking birth control? Who the hell is holding a gun to your head and *forcing* you to work for such a**holes?? Not all that long ( Read more... ) -
On writing one's own obituary...
Would you do it? Why or why not? Honestly, I'd never thought about it, until today, when I read the first (and only) obituary of a complete stranger that ever made me cry. Why? Because the words (written by the decedent herself) were so touching, and their overall impression made me realize that one more completely awesome human being has left this ( Read more... ) -

For example, if you want somebody to act as a "reference" of any kind for you on an employment application, don't you think it would be courteous of you to ask first if that would be OK? Honestly, I would! I'd do it, if ( Read more... ) -

You've got it -- me!! Just like the last time he had it in his head that he wanted a puppy *sigh ( Read more... ) -
Maia to be euthanized...
I am so incredibly sad today...after a long, painful discussion with my husband, we have come to an awful decision. I'll be calling the vet tomorrow to make an appointment to have my poor Maia euthanized ( Read more... ) -
Brain-dead fascists...
Now, I've seen everything! In the most cowardly move imaginable, the Susan G. Komen Foundation has joined the Republican witch hunt and has cut the funding which they had been giving to Planned Parenthood to pay for life-saving breast cancer screenings for low-income women who otherwise would not be able to afford them. The link below is to a video ( Read more... ) -
Lazy, lazy, lazy...
Yes, I AM one seriously lazy bitch! I've avoided posting here for ages because things have been so crazy. Do I care??? Not much...those of you who are my friends on Facebook can check out the most recent pictures of my puppy, who has hogged up almost ALL of my non-work time in recent weeks. Except for trying to train and housebreak her, for the ( Read more... )
