The eye opening part for me, was when she fired the cleaning lady because she felt guilty having someone else do her work for her. WTF, lady? You can afford it and the cleaning lady needs the work (and is super conscientious too!), your belief that she’s being humiliated is only because you think her work is…

On the other hand, when my daughter and I were on a camping trip recently, her first comment on entering the newly set up tent, was, "It smells like vagina in here." So there's that.

I'll time you while you find us all jobs that we have absolutely no moral objections to. I'll bring you snacks later. Seriously, she already had the job when she converted, she wasn't denying other people the right to booze it up, and she wasn't asking other people to do something that they were unwilling to do (ie…

Yeah, but that usually hinges on whether or not there is someone else present who can accommodate the request. In this case, there were other people who (apparently) had no objection to serving liquor and therefore no one was being denied service. It sounds to me like the complainer was just looking to be bitchy to a…

OH. MY. GOD. That is perfection. Unfortunately his motor skills are pretty badly degraded and I don't think he'd be able to get such a complex contraption on the dog. HOWEVER, I may have to get one for my idiot dog who pee pees on the paper but will only crap next to the paper. No matter where the paper is. Or how…

Honey, white blouses are good all year long. It's white SHOES that are a problem! Also seersucker.

Teahouse of the August Moon. On the plus side, I don't think Brando's portrayal was (much of) a caricature, on the negative side, weren't there any Japanese actors who could have taken this role on? I'm sure Brando could have played a different character. Oh well. I still love it.

Also, what the hell’s happening with the italic font? Is it just my computer? or is everybody else getting different sized letters within the same block of text? I feel like I'm looking at one of those Magic Illusion posters... except the picture never resolves into anything. Yikes.

Apparently our eyeballs have been disconnected from our spinal columns....

Marlon Brando, anyone? And honestly, I love the movie anyhow.

My brain is apparently malfunctioning, because when I breezed past that headline I thought it read, “Speedy Ortiz Just Launched a Hotline for SWINGERS Who Feel Threatened,” and I just didn't even know what to do. I literally stared at it while the clock ticked away my life wondering what the HELL was happening. I'm…

My dad has dementia, and his one remaining physical activity is walking their elderly tiny dog. I buy him bags and bag holders, but I don’t think he uses them. I can't fix it, but hopefully our neighbors understand! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Felicitations and commiseration

Nope. I'm going to have to recommend a Sauterne to go with that delight.

OMG, when I was pregnant it was the hardest! I gave up blue cheeses because it seemed just too flagrant to be eating obvious mold, but otherwise, I ate ALL the cheese. Nom nom nom.

Cheese has been my 12 year old's primary source of protein since she was old enough to bang on her high chair and demand CHEEZ MAMA! Her most recent favorite? Steak dipped in cheese fondue. Fuck it, it's delicious.

Real directions I once received to a friend’s house in Laplace: “When you get off the interstate, you will be completely surrounded by swamp. Continue through the swamp for 5 miles, then turn left at the Burger King.” There are also always a number of dead alligators by the side of the road that were presumably hit by…

Just give me advance notice so I can evacuate the state...

GodDAMNit Louisiana, why you gotta do me like that?!? Why can't Louisiana get into the fricking news for something good? It's like Florida, but without the humor. Ugh.
