Anyone who truly knows me, knows one important fact about me. I absolutely loathe having to wake up any earlier than the exact amount of time it takes me to get ready – and getting ready should not take more than 20 minutes. I love, love, love my short haircut, but it can be a…

Today I decided to look up the word Earth on Wikipedia. It was a huge mistake. My head hurts, my eyes are watering, and I think I may have drooled out the words HELP ME as my hand fell off the mouse. You see, while I love Wikipedia, I just have one problem. I can never…

The Hubster. The man I married. The man I handpicked out of hundreds to tie my life to. Why does he vex me so?! It all began on a quiet day. I had a raging migraine and wanted a bag of my chips. I love those teeny tiny variety bags you get in the very…
