    Why You Trippin’?

    May 23, 2014 / No Comments

    Should I be worried? I agreed to visit a friend over the coming holiday weekend but now I question the ferocity of the invite… I’m talking about a person who rarely keeps in contact with me since they got in a relationship but now they’ve been blowing up my phone for the last week and change. Why they be trippin’?

    Trick or Treat…

    October 31, 2013 / No Comments

    All week I’ve been dreading instead of anticipating Halloween. I’m working on assignments and handling the extra workload as secretary of the Student Veteran Association on campus… so between that, homelife and studying for tests, I haven’t had many spare moments to focus on it!

    I am not ready for Halloween. I am suddenly under pressure when the Apartment announces they are hosting a party. What do I do?

    Imma Columbus This Day

    October 14, 2013 / No Comments

    Maybe it’s just my corner of Texas, maybe it’s the whole state (haven’t done the research and I am not really that committed so if someone wants to comment and let me know that would be great) but we aren’t getting Columbus Day off from classes. Not at the independent school district level and not my college. NOPE. It’s business as usual. Maybe that’s how it should be?

    Laboring to be a Buzz Kill

    September 5, 2013 / No Comments

    Holiday weekends and crowds go hand in hand.  I don’t care for crowds, but I don’t avoid them either.  If I know I’m going somewhere on a holiday weekend, it is safe to assume that everyone else will too, so I plan for it. This past Labor Day the day started with rain, which meant indoor activities like the cinema were going to be packed… anyone who expected different was smoking crack.

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.
