I realized that I didn’t want to give people a “thoughtful” [...]

Can you see the fish she’s pointing at here?She also chases about a thousand sticks, swims and charms the boats full of rafters. It’s a fun outing for everyone involved.
Last weekend, she [...]

ME?

I’ve decided to make it my goal to become a trophy wife.
Here’s my plan:
1. I’m growing my hair out, then I will color it blond or get highlights. (That is if I can stand the freakin’ hair dresser for two full hours every month.)

We are asking for your help to complete the list!

“What are you doing?” D. asks looking over my shoulder at the computer screen.
“Looking at boy shorts.”
“Why?”
“Because the guys on the radio said they were sexier than any other kind of underwear. I want to be sexy! Don’t you want me to be sexy??”
“I don’t think they are sexy. Don’t I count?”
There’s [...]

My head is permanently stuck on a very stupid song. (Rihanna &
Sean Paul Break it off - You Tube). In an effort to relieve my own brain numb, I took a gander at the Denver Post.
Man Accidentally Hangs Himself
This is a lovely piece of journalism. The writer details the coroner response to: “how does someone [...]

I was driving home from the gym this morning and heard this song - It’s business time by Flight of the Conchords. I had to pull over I was laughing so hard. I showed the video to D. this morning and he laughed. (The song is funnier than the video.)
You will laugh [...]

Our preliminary research shows that a diet of Twizzlers, the candy made by Satan, and Coffee, with a little soy milk for protein, will make a person quite irritable.
While more data is needed to confirm our findings, we felt our preliminary findings were significant enough to release to the general public.
