Mane-ly ’bout me
December 22, 2007 – 8:43 pm
Yesterday I kept trying to figure out how to best communicate to my hairdresser what I really wanted.
So like any other sleep deprived, dillusional woman, I consulted my imaginary fair hairdresser as to what I should do. The conversation went something like this: (And if you weren’t convinced I was a lunatic by my four [...]
More _bang_ for my buck; Part Two
December 19, 2007 – 7:15 pm
Steve, one of the guys Dustin car-pools with had to work late. Which means hubbie had to stay late. Which means I had to cancel my apt with the hairdresser. Which means I’m stuck with this Pollyanna haircut until Friday. Which means I have an extra day to come up with ideas on how they [...]
More _bang_ for my buck; Part One

OK. I tried. I really, really tried to like my hair color and cut. I’ve been playing with it, putting clips in it, changing my outfits to match my crazy hair….it absolutely is not working. Every time I pass my reflection I’m shocked. I get a wave of insecurity and then have to [...]
My dog is retarded

Last week our overzealous dog came bolting from the backyard, leaving gravel and dust in her wake. She finished her craziness by running head first into the screen and knocking it clear off the doorway.

So [...]
What was I thinking?

What the crap!
I’ve been meticulously planning for Dustin’s Godaddy Christmas party for the longest! I borrowed a dress from my Sister-in-law, payed the $40 to get a temporary hem, spent hours Googling what the heck you wear with a strapless dress to keep warm, got the sitter, selected the jewelry, shoes, dressed [...]
House Tour: The Family Room
December 14, 2007 – 8:07 am
I finally made it to the mailbox and hark, I found my ornament from my secret blogger and a yummy cheese, sausage and evil chocolate package from the grandparents. (I’m not doing so hot with the no sugar thing by the way. Bleh.)
I love this time of year. Every time I see the [...]
