My family have stories too. In WWI a relative saw her son appear at the foot of her bed the night he was killed overseas. My Great great aunt Mamie was a witch and a good psychic..read the cards and people came to her from all over..which I am also very good at and have done for people for years.
Then we have the…

I have a freakishly good long term memory when it comes to my early childhood. For instance, I can vividly remember the bedtime routine that my mother - who died when I was young - took me through each night. She would carry me on her hip, and we would go all throughout the house so that I could say goodnight to…

This story is kind of “Look at Me” Light, but I’ve debated sharing it here enough times that I guess it’s worth a go.

Two years ago, I got severely, awfully sick (probably the flu). I didn’t go to work for the entire week. It was all I could do just to keep myself drinking liquids and soup and shuffling to bed. The worst part was my husband was traveling for business, so I was all alone, just me and our sweet black cat Libby.

About 16 years ago I was single and living alone, for the first time ever, in my 1920s bungalow. I loved my little fixer upper, and I had found a nice antique English haberdashery armoire at an action house for only $100. My bedroom was the very back room of the house and had no closet, only my bed and this armoire. I…

God I’m so excited!! This is my superbowl.

I like spooky things, but I wouldn’t consider myself a big believer of the supernatural. In fact, if this hadn’t happened to me, I would easily write all ghost stories off to be just that - stories. But it did, and for 30 years it has lingered in the back of my mind “was that real?”.

The strangest thing about the Ossuary (you know, aside from the millions of bones) is how quickly you “forget” that you’re looking at human bones.  After a few minutes, my mind started to just look at patterns (“oh, they used femurs to make a cross here”).  I had to actively reassert to myself that I was looking at…

The great irony is that all these white supremacists are busy glorifying a foreign religion invented by Semites, while their own ancestral European faiths were abandoned centuries ago and are irrevocably lost to time.

Counterpoint:

I love him on Sound Opinions.

I’m a lawyer who still questions if I should have become an aesthetician and makeup artist. Less debt and less rates of alcoholism.

I believe he can lie.

Sometimes they are prank orders. Over the weekend, we had a lot of bigger orders. We had two deliveries where people refused to take the orders, both were 4 pizzas. Sometimes, the pizza makers don’t watch the pizzas closely when they are cooking, and the dough bubbles up, ruining the pizza, so those go in the pile.…

Crisp Rat is, indeed, the most important takeaway from this entire post.

I loved him when he was on Parks and Rec but something about his incredibly loud religiosity since becoming a huge star drives me up the wall.

Thank you. Sympathies to you on the loss of your dad. It’s never easy but 55 is too young.

I do remember another interview I did for Bridesmaids with somebody who later lost his job for a conversation he had on a bus with someone else. I won’t mention names, but just think about it.

Ohhhh, I’m glowing and feel all tingly!

There you go, it’s working!
