Christmas Eve Eve
We are living in scary times. I think we can all agree that things are getting a little harried. Prices of everything are on the rise and the current state of the world is unnerving at best. As we enter into the holiday season, it can be easy to let our concerns take over. And with [...]
Strike Drags On
Just when you think it’s safe to go back to the beach, the fin pokes itself out of the water.
Minor lapse in the strike. The big rules have not been broken, but that’s less to do with my strength and more to do with the efforts of one of the striked to respect my boundaries.
The [...]
ARGH!!! I HATE PEOPLE!!!
That lying, no-good, rotten, scummy, shitbag! He causes an accident, messes up my car, hits me on the same day that a friend dies, leaves me stuck in the cold for almost 2 hours waiting for the police, and kills my bumper and because he is lying, he’s screwing me over yet again!
I HATE ALL [...]
The Strike Continues
I hate the strike. I miss the guys. It’s been nearly 4 days and I am ready to cross my own picket line. Last night I told a man who was hitting on me that I was on strike. He told me I just knew the wrong men and offered to take over for them. [...]

For instance, I’m currently on strike. I’m off men and dating until at least the first of the year. That means no Christmas dating. No New [...]
You Can’t Make This Stuff Up
I’ve been having the kind of luck that makes other people shake their heads in bewilderment. In addition to the passing of a coworker this week, I’ve also been in a car accident. I’m fine, but it is proving to be a hassle.
Let’s not forget the crazy man who I’ve stopped dating, the guy I’m [...]
Somber News and a Sad Day
I’ve been working on a posting about Christmas. I recently decorated my tree and my house is full to the brim with cookies, but I can’t really bring myself to be too involved in that right now.
I just learned that a coworker of mine has passed away. I did not know her exceptionally well, but [...]
Cabinet Conversation
Over your holiday weekend, were you fixing turkey sandwiches? Doing some Black Friday shopping? Decorating for Christmas? Naming the men and women who will act as top advisors to the world’s single most powerful person over the next 4 years? Yes, it is finally time to talk about the cabinet selections. No, they are not all [...]
