    How to Cope Through Post-Divorce Interactions With the Ex: When We Pretend That They’re Dead…

    Tales of an Outsider

    September 2, 2014 / No Comments

    I am an outsider in my office. I’ve only lived in Texas a year, I am working a job intended for someone younger than me (about 15 years younger), and the people who are my age are employees fully invested in the pathetic drama that comes from working for a public academic institution.

    It is amazing how quickly I can go from zero to full on rage… it doesn’t happen often. But when it does, it’s caused by mr horrible… (Sounds like a Dos Equis commercial. If only I were the most interesting wo-man in the world. Stay bloodthirsty my friends…)

    Wardrobe Malfunction

    October 16, 2013 / No Comments

    Perhaps I suffer from an overabundance of personality, my clothing appears to be a mish mash of illogical pairings. I can’t seem to define what style of clothes I like to wear, because when I look at what I own, I don’t want to wear any of it. This is, of course, a first world problem…

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.
