this is what happens when you leave a small child alone in the coloring book aisle

February 17, 2012

Once upon a time when I was little, my mother took Alli and I grocery shopping (which she hated to do, but when you’re pregnant and you have two small children you can’t exactly leave them home unattended while their father is off building houses on the weekend or whatever).  Stop & Shop was always [...]

This is how we roll.

February 14, 2012

This happened this weekend, but I haven’t had time to draw something silly to illustrate it.  The Destroyer and I were talking about how much we love each other when he came home from his 3-day overnight drill this weekend (I know, we gross everyone out with our gooey-ness) when he brought up Valentine’s Day.

Challenge ACCEPTED!

January 29, 2012

This is how you know you’ve been watching way too much How I Met Your Mother. And yes, this happened this morning.  What we were discussing is not important, just know that it was an Every Day Conversation for us (and not sexual or otherwise dirty in nature whatsoever).

Doesn’t it?

January 21, 2012

Yeah… so The Destroyer and I started watching the current season of Bones tonight (thank you, Hulu Plus!), and I may have (read: totally did) pointed at the TV and shouted LIMECAT!!!  (( The Destroyer can confirm this. )) You be the judge. It speaks for itself, doesn’t it? Throughout the series, we haven’t been [...]

this is for YOU

January 17, 2012

Hello there!  How are you?  Are you good?  I hope so, because I’d hate to think you were doing bad.  I’m dedicating this blog post to you.  Don’t bother looking around to see if I mean someone else, you’re exactly who I want to address tonight. Do you like the internet?  Do you use it [...]

It’s way too late to still be awake.

January 16, 2012

It’s 5AM, I’ve gotten about an hour of broken sleep over the past 5 hours of tossing and turning, and I’m bored as hell.  Is it too much to ask to just frakking fall asleep already?  (( Sorry for the swearing, Daddy. ))  The only time I get any sleep anymore is when I medicate, [...]

my promise to myself

January 12, 2012

I have literally been going insane this past week over why my blog feed was not working, but now it is and I am all giddy and stuff. GIDDY, I TELL YOU! I know I haven’t blogged much over the past few months – over the past year, really – but the truth is that [...]

in which I start off with some zombies and end with

January 6, 2012

You see how I like to keep you guessing?  lolz.* I have been waking up every morning and not drinking coffee and hating it, so today (like yesterday) I am having coffee.  It’s like I’m a zombie and words are just meaningless sounds coming out of my mouth when I haven’t had my coffee.  Quitting [...]

a letter to 2012

January 1, 2012

Well hello there, 2012.  I know you’re only a few hours old but I’ve had my sights set on you for a while now, you gorgeous thing.  That girl you woke up with this morning?  That was me.  I know, I look so different when I’m awake and showered and I have make-up on, but [...]

I LOVE…Fridays! and a Dear John letter

December 30, 2011

I LOVE…  that 2011 is finally coming to a close.  To celebrate the occasion, I’ve written a farewell letter. Dear 2011, It’s time for me to say goodbye, and you know what?  I’m not sad at all.  I’m actually glad you’re ending, and it isn’t just the usual end-of-the-year-anticipation I’m feeling (although I feel that [...]
