I Need to Stop Drinking Mouthwash

Last night was another strange voyage of dreams.  Maybe I need to rethink my bedtime rituals.  Maybe I should try chamomile tea.  Maybe I need to walk away from my computer earlier in the evening instead of looking to Twitter for a lullaby.  Maybe I should just stop swallowing the mouthwash.

Regardless, after what felt like seventeen [...]

Thom the Bald-tist

As a general rule, I’m not a very picture oriented blogger.  Sometimes though, words simply won’t suffice.  Last weekend was such a time.  Game on.

Thom and His Candle

Dad in His Scrubs

To the left is my little brother Thom.  People say we look A LOT alike.  I suppose it’s hard to tell in that picture, [...]

Things That End in “Asserole”

After sharing such tasty treats from the Salad Cookbook, Mike decided to peruse the Casseroles volume of the series.  Before you run away screaming, I promise there’s no jello.

Yes, There's a Whole Set

Mike:  Corned Beef Casseroles – PLURAL! *page flipping*  ‘Shallow rectangular glass dishes are the backbone of casserole cookery.’

Me:  Find me something really gross.

Mike:  [...]

Trapped

I drove all the way to North Carolina to bond with my dad and escape the cold yet here we sit surrounded by drifts of white, icky snow.  Hoo-motherfucking-Ray.

Both Born in the Sixties

Our oldest brother Mike managed to land just before the snow hit.  We spent the morning listening to him quote recipes from an [...]

Driving Conversations

Thom:  I had a revelation the other day.

Me:  With Jesus and everything?

Thom:  Yup.

Me:  Bring it.

Thom:  Tom Brokaw is the same age as Mom.

Me:  For reals?

Thom:  He was being interviewed and said he was almost 70.

Me:  And how did that get you to Jesus.

Thom:  He was 33 when he died and 33 is a multiple of 3 [...]

Pearl Necklaces

God these titles just get worse and worse.  No wonder someone just came to my site after searching for “fingernail porn.”  Seriously, somebody stop me.

I’m going to take off on a tangent before I even get to the meat of the post (she said meat).  Close your eyes and envision – oh hell that’s not going [...]

FrankenBarbie

For some unknown reason, people are talking an awful lot about Barbies.  When I think about Barbies, I instantly think of my dad.

Dear Ol' Dad

What?  No, it’s not weird at all.  C’mon, you totally think of my dad when you read about Barbies, too.

I had many, many Barbies – some were hand-me-downs and some were [...]

Bollywood Booty Shakin'

I don’t know if anyone else has noticed, but it’s cold.  I don’t enjoy the cold anymore than I enjoy Rod Stewart, but I also don’t enjoy hiding out in my apartment all day long and doing my best impression of limp broccoli.

That’s not true.  Sometimes I LOVE reveling in my funk and aggressively lounging.  Sadly, [...]

Parental Advisory

So let me preface this post by saying it is entirely possible that this will not amuse you as much as it amuses me.  However, if it amuses you even a fraction of how much it amuses me, I hope you’re either wearing depends or not particularly fond of your upholstery.  Then again, it might not [...]

Search Optimization-ish

As promised, I’m back with the second ever “Weird Searches That Bring People to My Site” post.  November’s searches might even be weirder than the first time I tried this.  You’re probably going to want to grab a drink before you read this.  But you should shotgun that drink because a) it’ll make this more amusing [...]
