    Fuck Valentine’s Day

    February 14, 2020 / No Comments

    Fuck Valentine’s Day.  Who needs it? In the days leading up to this puffy pink holiday of jaded love, I was bombarded with ads reminding me that I wasn’t complete unless I was celebrating this holiday with someone special. So I am. As I sit alone, at the bar of my favorite drafthouse movie theater, drinking a beer and waiting to see a movie, I am spending time with me.

    Relationships Bite: Am I Doomed?

    September 29, 2014 / No Comments

    I had this freaky thought yesterday while I was driving around: What if mr horrible was my soulmate? I almost ran off the road in my moment of mental panic. If this was in fact true then I am DOOMED!… Doomed I tell you… and then I came to my senses and thought to myself that perhaps that wasn’t in fact true.

    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.

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.
