Queen of Rambles

I think it may be a little too early to call this the witching hour, but I plan to be snug in my bed with drool dribbling down my pillowcase when the witches are having their big party. Halloween is usually my favorite holiday but I couldn’t find the motivation to dress up this […]

I should be planning my Nanowrimo novel right now, but instead I’m writing a post. I thought of something supremely witty to say so I clicked open the update journal page but now I can’t think of it. That should be a sign to click the little X and go away.
I got Erik an […]

I made an excellent totally made-up dinner tonight, but it’s left me with a problem: hot lips. Winter has well and truly set in, which means I’m dry dry dry and my poor, chapped lips can’t handle spicy pizza sauce poured over chicken (thin sliced, stuffed with a mixture of bell peppers, cream cheese […]

It’s amazing how much you can get done when you get up off your ass and start moving. I crossed a ton of things off my to-do list today and even managed to get the one nasty toilet scrubbed. Why is it that the toilet we never use is the one that gets […]

Thing the First: I just totally puked while brushing my teeth. It hearkened back to the days of my pregnancy when I puked almost every single time I brushed my teeth in the mornings. I am trying not to be worried, even though the possibility of pregnancy is practically nil. It’s […]

If you’re following along with my to-do list, you know today was picture day and I was not happy about it. Also, if you are following along with my to-do list you might be crazy and I want you to come and be my mommy. I need someone to keep in line.
I went […]

I think I have something wrong with me. When I’m in a social situation I usually find myself looking at everyone around me and wondering how I’m supposed to interact with them. Almost everyone I meet seems like a foreign creature that I can’t relate to at all. At the Halloween party […]

Tomorrow is our little moms group Halloween get-together which isn’t so little. There are 30 moms who have RSVPed which means well over 30 kids which means “holy hell, how will they all fit in K’s house?” I’m glad that’s not my problem.
My problem? Will Erik get too hot in his dragon […]

It seems all I need to snap my self out of a grouch fest is a shot of endorphins. I finally made it back to the gym today and was in a much better mood. No one needed to die today. I didn’t even have to threaten to kill Erik, though I […]

This is my very favorite photo from the trip, which is kind of silly since it just shows the back of Erik’s head. At least you can see his strange brown locks. He spent hours running around that kitchen island, but the most fun was had when he was chasing my uncle Ray. […]
