Something really disturbing happened to me on Facebook today. Deep down I'm hoping there's a complicated, techy, and completely legitimate explanation for it, but I'm fearing the worst. First, an explanation. Many of you know I have what's called a "fan page" for World's Worst Moms. Fan pages are different than personal pages. When I [...]
There's been a whole heap of nasty stuff being thrown around about women lately. I mean, back when I was twenty, if you would've suggested that we'd be bickering about safe access to abortion or questioning if an assault victim "asked for it" in 2012, I would have chortled (because I did and still chortle [...]
So for whatever reason, I've gotten some bug in my bonnet and am suddenly unwilling to take any crap from anybody.Not the actual buffet, but you get the idea.The other night, we went to the Eldorado Hotel with my brother and his kids. Remember we live in Reno, so we have to do the buffet [...]
Today I ate a pot pie, berated an AT&T representative, got a present I've been wanting for years, and found out another one of my friends has cancer.I have no doubts that my blog is appropriately titled.The day started out well. Then I made the huge mistake of calling AT&T to try and clear up [...]

I say there's a good reason you haven't heard because the media has done a crap-ass job of covering the whole thing. Finally, sixteen days after it [...]
My husband and I were so pissed off and yelling so loudly last night that I'm pretty sure the neighbors heard us.Don't worry. Not yelling at each other. Well, sort of yelling at each other. More yelling in tandem. We'd watched the president's speech on the debt ceiling -- all was well. My 8-year-old was [...]
Every once in a blue moon, you get one of those days that validates your life. The kids and I ditched school today and went on a little field trip (actually, they ditched school -- I don't go to school). I have a friend who works for one of the state assemblywomen, so we got [...]
So I sort of feel like I'm gonna throw up.You've probably heard, the two mega-media giants, Comcast and NBC, have morphed into one super, mega-media giant. This will no doubt raise prices for all of us little guys and cause the "news" industry to sink even further into the abyss (I'm actually grateful that my [...]
