    Say Ma’am One More Time

    July 1, 2020 / No Comments

    I have been yes ma’am’d more in the last week than I ever have been in my life. Have I passed the threshold from indiscernible years into tellable old age? God forbid…

    Wishing You an Unhappy Birthday

    June 29, 2020 / No Comments

    Is it progress that I can wish the ex salutations on his birthday? I don’t really mean it, and truly it’s an afterthought. He should be glad I am wishing him anything at all, since he’s the worst and if it wasn’t for the children we share, I wouldn’t have to think of him at all, right? I secretly hope that he spent his birthday in a drunken stupor and that he was hating himself the whole time, reminded of just how much of a douchebag he truly is.

    Tears Solve Nothing – Lean Into the Anger

    June 19, 2020 / No Comments

    I admit, there is no love lost between me and my parents. I have stated unequivocally many times that if the man who fathered me passed away right now, I wouldn’t care. I also acknowledge my growing ambivalence about my mother’s eventual demise, not surprising as we are not super close and growing further apart as time goes by.

    I had an epiphany at work today about the different people that I encounter in my life. Catalyzed almost entirely by my CoStar horoscope which is habitually scarily accurate.

    This is the post-pandemic era. Business is not as usual. Everything has changed. Recently, some friends and I went to a casino. It is located in Oklahoma, otherwise known as Far North Texas. There were at least 100 Texas license plates for every lone Oklahoman plate.

I blog about the random ass shit going on in my life. I'm a single mom, a Navy veteran, avid reader, and coping with life post-divorce. I have two sons and five cats, so clearly, I'm a catch. I pull no punches and use salty language. Read at your own risk.
