Oh, hometown week. What joy you bring to my heart, except for the part where I’m so bored and annoyed with this season that what really brought joy to my heart was the Breyer’s Chocolate Cheesecake Ice Cream (which I finally found after going to four separate grocery stores) to eat while suffering through the [...]

If you know me at all, you know that my feet are a wreck. An absolute, unfixable wreck, with high arches and a BUNION and a HAMMERTOE. I’m using capitals, because I AM NOT ASHAMED! Except I am. It’s an exercise, people, stick with me. I am attempting not to be repulsed by my own [...]

On Tuesday morning at the insanely early hour of 7:15, I went to the hospital for a heart test that I’ve had probably half a dozen times since I was diagnosed with Mitral Valve Prolapse as a child. The test is called an echocardiogram and if you’ve had one or have ever watched ER or [...]

This week’s gripping look into the lives of eight vapid humans begins with an overly long recap of the departure of the beloved Ed from last week, adding further credence to my theory that he is being primed to be the next Bachelor. We’ll see who is Ms Righty McRight Right in a few short [...]

And now it’s… Public Service Announcement Saturday! Except this will not be a regular feature because I couldn’t possibly think of something to say in terms of PSAs once a week, and besides Saturday is Writing Blog Day which I haven’t done yet but I HAVE achieved the first step towards that, which is to [...]

I’ve been thinking about this blog and what it needs, mostly to keep me posting regularly (apart from The Bachelorette which I blog religiously on Mondays) (OK, fine, mostly on Tuesdays). So after careful thought (i.e. I was vacuuming the crap from under the dining room table and thought, “I should add more structure to [...]

Is it five episodes? I’ve lost track. It’s exhausting really. This season, there has been so much… crying. For someone who was quoted in my weekend paper as saying “I just don’t want to take it too seriously”, Jillian Harris is sure taking this capital-S seriously. But I’ve jumped ahead.

I think it’s possible that I’ve blogged about this before but I’m too lazy to go through my own archives to check. It’s also possible that I just thought about blogging it but then blogged about The Bachelorette instead, which is also on tap for today or maybe tomorrow because it’s not like it’s particularly [...]

It’s my birthday on Friday. I’m going to be 39. I tell you this to save you from looking up somewhere else how old I am or trying to guess based on my picture. Everyone who has guessed (And why WOULD you guess my age? Seriously? I will tell you if you want to know. [...]
