Probably the Old Testament. Then when he got caught he was probably like shit, better blame this on the evil Internet instead of the Good Book!

Emotions ran high this week. My husband has just been allocated for a project in Bentonville, Arkansas. So we have to move there, from Orlando, FL. As a knee-jerk reaction I said “NO!” but that’s not realistic. So now I have to come to terms with moving to a state in the bible belt that brings Mike Huckabee and the…
Planning to go see Krampus because I like monster movies. It remains me of horror movies from the 80s like Dolls. Also, I dislike traditional Christmas movies.
So took two pregnancy test today and I’m up the duff! It’s our first and we are chuffed, especially because we have had a tough time trying to conceive. Just so excited, had to share with someone (all of you!)
Hey Jezzies, whatcha drinking? I’ve got some Great Lakes Brewery Christmas Ale chilling, along with some New Holland Brewery Dragon’s Milk stout. My friend recommended the ale, which I’m typically not a fan of, so we’ll see how that goes!
Even if you don’t think this cultural appropriation, you can’t deny that this is a case of ripping off someone’s design. It was used without their permission. And that is a violation in of itself.
Wednesday night social? Hooray! Everyone! Look at my awesome new tattoo! (Shameless IG share)
Every single time I try to draw, my cat interferes. Every. Time.
I made two briskets (cuz my husband came home and ate the first). Kale-fortified mashed potatoes, cornbread cake, stuffing, pasta salad, 2 dozen devilled eggs and my gramma’s ginger apple pie.
I am so thankful to finally be able to shout this all over the interwebs: My transgender daughter came out to everyone yesterday. The whole big FB announcement. Those closest to her have known for a little while and I have known since she revealed herself to me five years ago. Now that she has been on hormones for a…
Our food traditions are pretty basic. Roasted brussels sprouts, green beans with pearl onions, fingerling potatoes roasted with garlic, blackberry crisp, etc. My favorite tradition actually relates to alcohol (naturally). When my family gets tipsy, we tend to tell each other how much we love everybody. “I love you,…
I had to stop in to the grocery store this evening. I expected it to be crowded and it was. I expected lines to be long and they were. I expected to have a long wait and was pleasantly surprised by how quickly the cashiers were getting everyone checked out, all while keeping smiles on their faces. As soon as I got…
Thank you!!! We got married!!!
Mark, I read the post about you telling Allen that you were getting married ALOUD to my SO. It took until the end when he said, “It’s two dudes?” and I screamed, “Yes! Isn’t it beautiful?”. You reached people you don’t even know about. I will do my best in future to follow you. Just write the shit out of it. Like you…
I’ve been assigned bread, I bake a lot of bread, it’s my weird hobby. I just took Hokkaido milk rolls.out of the oven, and I have multi grain seed and pecan baguettes raising in the refrigerator to be baked tomorrow morning early before my road race. The rolls are for my husband’s grandmother, who likes things plain…
A friend experimented on me today and I got the back of my head shaved! I’d wanted to do it for a while, and I think its perfectly acceptable since I have enough hair to cover it up for school and stuff.
SO LAME.
THANKSGIVING IS COMING. What are your coping strategies for dealing with relatives in light of the Paris attacks and the resulting shitstorm of issues re: Syrian refugees, etc? It’s going to be rough and I need additional coping artillery besides alcohol.
I’m drinking a local cranberry apple cider tonight. The worst part of my work year is OVER (first term report cards and parent teacher interviews). I’ve officially crossed the bridge from enthusiastic young teacher to teacher that’s been doing this a long time, has tenure and is putting up with zero bullshit. So it…
