After an early Black Friday shopping spree, my friends and I decided it would be nice to go for dinner at Swiss Chalet, to sit and relax our tired, aching feet. This shouldn't be a big deal. It's just food, right? Everyone has to eat. Well, as someone who is constantly dribbling on her top,… Continue reading Can’t Take Me Anywhere
So, I've had a sinus infection for a few months now. It's been so bad that I get a massive eyeball headache instantly after walking outside, or daring to look at my computer (which makes a writer's life so much more interesting, don't you think?). This has brought me to the doctor more times than… Continue reading Tea Bag Mishap
As most of you may know from reading past posts, I am in fact a superhero! That's right, I clean dirt and grime during the day and by night? I am a ghost, I am an angel, I'm a sixteen-year-old girl just trying to find her place in the world, I'm an old man nearing… Continue reading The Car Ate My Key!
I don't know if I can teach you anything with this blog, except to always watch where you're going in life, though I do hope that you get a chuckle out of it. If this blog posting can make even one person's day a little better, I can say that I've done my job. Today,… Continue reading Hazardous Work Environment?
I found an old diary entry today that reminded me of a moronic move I made a couple years back. To this day, I still can't even believe I was such a dork! Ugh! Obviously, I'm a writer. My passion lies in Young Adult fantasy novels, though I have multiple side projects to keep my… Continue reading Backup, Backup, and… Backup
Have you ever lived in a home that seems to need constant attention? Tonight's story is sponsored by a dilapidated brick house as needy as a four-year-old child. My roommate and I were putting up a new door to the basement that needed to be sanded, and it also needed a hole where the doorknob is supposed… Continue reading Roommate Disaster
This wasn't really an accident, however, it was potentially very dangerous, very stupid, and extremely reckless of me. It was also fearless. I'd probably slap myself if I attempted such a stunt today, but hey bravery can be positive, even when it's masterfully weaved within a web of stupidity. My mom was seeing a man… Continue reading Fearless
A simple chat with an old friend reminded me of a crazy event that occurred during my 'drinking' phase. Most teens have their drinking phase right into college and since I didn't go to college until I hit twenty-two, I got a late start. Spending nearly five years working non-stop after high school I decided it was… Continue reading Happy Trails
I've been mentally going over my list of scars to share for this post. (There are too many to choose from) "She's so dumb she got hit by a parked car!" Have you ever heard this joke? It wasn't exactly written about me, though unfortunately, I can certainly fit into the stereotype on at least… Continue reading 4 Wheels, 3 Bases & 2 Injuries
Today's tale is one of immeasurably poor timing and astounding gracelessness. In this scenario, I am about eight-years-old. I'm walking barefoot with my little brother, who is around six. I can't tell you where we'd been or what we'd been doing, but I can tell you that we lived in a duplex that was next… Continue reading Once Bitten, Twice As Painful
