The day started off normal enough. I played my farm game on my iPad before daycare. Checked my Facebook. Read a few tweets. Sent off some iMessages. It was business as usual. Within 3 hours I noticed that iMessage was completely down. I couldn’t send, couldn’t receive, there were red exclamation points all over. Never one to…
Read MoreA third airplane in two weeks has landed unexpectedly due to a fight over leg room. Let’s all take a moment to think about the fact that there are three people in America who have physically fought someone over leg room on an air plane. Time for the world to hear the truth.

This morning Lola and I made the command decision to clean the house. We couldn’t find a housecleaner that we liked and could afford so we’re doing all the heavy lifting ourselves. Dreams of hiring a housekeeper made us complacent this week. So there I am, moving all of our furniture, when I get the…
Read MoreI have a confession to make. My house is a mess, my clean laundry for the past month and a half is just piled onto the spare bed (which is king sized) with no room for more, and I can’t seem to beat the spiders this summer. I’m going insane. I briefly lost my sanity…
Read MoreOh boy. Kristen Stewart is doing another movie, Equals. Shoot me now. I literally pray for the end of the movie profession as a whole just to rid my eyes of this thing on my screen.

A reader recently commented on my last post about Amazon Prime. The post where I admitted to buying a year’s worth of Skittles. Because I could. The reader tells me that her husband also got pulled in by Amazon. He bought 18 pounds of jelly beans. 18 pounds!!! To put that in perspective, I did some math for…

Remember how I have a deep love for Amazon and its Prime membership that gives me free shipping on items already priced low? There’s a possibility that they have turned that love into a way to make me fat(ter). Amazon Pantry. Now I don’t even have to go to the grocery store and walk around. What…
