3 weeks without Facebook so far.  I have not missed it much, except for when I think of these funny things to say and I have no where to say them.  I know I am the only one who reads this - so in a sense its like a form of prayer to blog - because I know no one else is hearing it.  Makes me think of all the dumb Christians who expected the rapture today that did not happen.  Darn.  I was looking

Lets all address the pink elephant in the room. Pat and I have been watching Dancing with the Stars and cheering on ADD addled Kirstie Alley.  She can actually move that chub around amazingly well.  The other night she wore a purple tutu. Pat says "look at her in that tutu" I say "I think in that size, its considered a fourfour"

WHY The one word we should reinsert into our vocabulary is WHY. We start out asking WHY but are soon discouraged from it.  By parents, by teachers, by gods. They discouraged WHY because they did not know the answers and were afraid.  So they, and we, stopped asking WHY only for the guilt, shame and fear of not knowing.  And God was invented as the supreme reason to stop asking WHY.  How could

A shadow of a crow fell and rose on the pavement before my car. A group of men having coffee together - smiles, gestures of familiarity.  I sit outside of their cirlce and for the first time I realize I don't feel lonely anymore No man is an island, but neither should he be Manhattan

You sit at the coffee shop.  There are 2 children jumping around with no apparent parental supervision.  Their aggressive movements awaken a mild rage within you - you hate them - but more, you hate the lazy parent who reads the paper, totally oblivious and feeling as if they deserve some sort of respite from the responsibility of bringing these environmentally irresponsible hateful hatchlings

How is it that we are able to think thoughts that contradict our beliefs?  Is this free will?  Or does it mean the belief is false?

All of this - I know in my heart, is all the way it is supposed to be and that all of this - this sitting around, is important. What may look like a lazy waste of time is coming face to face with our fears and letting them haunt us for awhile until the ghosts grow tired and see we are no longer scared by their tactics. It is trusting that no story is to be believed - not yours, not mine and no

I feel it - what is around me refusing to be ignored any longer - standing there defiantly - hands on hips, as tears roll down my cheeks in response to the confrontation, tears like sighs of possible acceptance - but also of disbelief that anything has changed. Funny how the truth can't be numbed forever, even though I try to keep her at bay throughout the day - knowing sweet sleep will keep her

Happy 10th Anniversary Pat :-)So for our 10 yr anniversary Pat and I wanted to do something special and big to celebrate. We ended up buying a house in Santa Fe and moving into it. Pretty big and special. I'm thinking for the 20 year maybe a house in the Caribbean.

Moving from Madison, WI to Santa Fe, NM on Nov 1st. I can hardly wait! It has been such a journey of emotional ups and downs - but its hard to put into words how right this move is.Pat and I drove to Santa Fe a couple months ago - we had been considering a move there for the last 3 yrs - we wanted to drive there and see if we still felt it.

I beg to differ...Fun size would be a milky way the size of an ear of corn - NOT some puny square you can barely remember putting in your mouth. The wrapper is bigger than the candy - ok I guess it has to be to cover the candy, but this is not "fun" size.

Today I got stuck at a yellow light on the way to work. Its a long light. Since there was no one behind me I sat and stared in my rear view mirror and looked at where I had come from. It looked so strange and I realised that if someone had shown me a picture of what was in my rear view mirror, I would have said I had never seen it before - but if someone asked me if I could recognize the path

I turned on NBC and saw what I assumed was the Olympic Basketball halftime show with a few nice Chinese cheerleaders throwing around hula hoops. Well then all the sudden I see the cheer leader squad is actually judged and scored, and that I am actually watching something called "rythmic gymnastics". Then I head that there is also Olympic BMX racing. This is silly. Why not have Olympic shitting

I think it is funny that these ads on tv with a simpering woman talking about how she is trying to quit smoking actaully reminds me it is time to have a cigarette. I was like "oh, a cigarette, that sounds good".

Today is bring your daughter to work day. I am a little nervous because the Asian woman in the cube across from me has brought her 3 daughters in to work. The woman is working away and leaving the girls to sit and stare across the hall in my cube. I think they are eyeing my Hello Kitty doll house. Bitches better back off.

I know this is old, but with the Pope being in America I thought it would be fun to bring up again how odd it is that The Evil Emporer from Star Wars looks so much like the Pope. Hmmm.

Yess, butt....So America is all rah rah for Barack right now - and I do like him, however, my fear is that we will do to him what we did to Britney Spears. America does this to many people: find a rising star and make them the media darling, and then once they have gotten famous (enough) we eat them alive. Our culture likes to build people up so we can watch them fall. We love it. It makes us

We have had over 90 inches of SHIT so far in Madison Wi this season and while ordinarily I enjoy winter, i have officially HAD it. They are saying we will for sure get at least 100 inches of SHIT this season.There are 8 feet piles of SHIT on both sides of our driveway, there is so much SHIT

Today I saw TWO Merry Maids yellow station wagons drive by in the opposite direction. They were both packed with frowning Hispanic men. It just struck me as odd because on the TV adds, the Merry Maids are always semi-chunky middle-aged white women who seem to do it because they actually kind of get-off on cleaning. Was just weird. The weirder thing is that I am unable to locate a picute of these

Someone pointed out to me that I have been mixing up sayings. If someones asks me something that is obviously true I would say "Does the Pope shit in the woods?"I understand now that it is either "Does a BEAR shit in the woods?" or "Is the POPE Catholic?" BUT - if the Pope DOES shit in the woods, does it make any sound??

So I decided this morning if Pat and I ever got a baby we would give it the name "It". That way we could say things like:What is wrong with It?It is screaming again.It wants to eat.It needs a nap.It is poopy.It needs a bath.

You know how people get tickets for speeding if they are driving at least 6 miles an hour over the speed limit? I would like a new law this year that gives tickets to people who are "slowing" all over our roads. Idiots who drive 6 miles below the posted speed limit are as much a danger as people speeding. Can I get an AMEN?

Today I was heartbroken to discover that the wooley bear caterpillar that was milling around the corner of the building where the ash tray is outside the office had died. And yesterday I sat there and puffed away and considered moving him to the grass. There he was today, feet up in the air, dead. Does that mean it is going to be a long winter or a short one??

Pat and I had dinner at our favorite Mexican restaurant tonight (Pasqual's on Monroe Street). Our only complaint is that it is too child friendly - so people feel comfortable bringing their nasty germ filled brats to eat at our restaurant.A prime example was tonight - a little blond hair girl with pig tails stood near our table while her mother ordered at the counter. She just kept saying "hey,

The other day I was at the local tavern having a beer when I noticed a young couple had set their baby carrier and stinky baby on the bar. When the waitress asked me if I needed anything else, nodding at the infant I asked, "how much is one of those appetizers?" She didn't laugh or anything.

Yes, today I got stuck in an automatic car wash for 20 minutes. Pat hadn't even realised I was gone. There I was trapped drippin with pink goo because the final rinse never happened. I will now smell like bubble gum for a few days. The Indian owner finally restarted it after a line of 10 cars sat outside. So that was today's excitement.

P.S. For a fancy occasion, place Unca Dag's Sloppy Mac in a beautiful glass caserole dish after prep and serve immediately steaming hot!

It is RECIPE FRIDAY! YAY!Unca Dag's Sumptuous Sloppy MacThis week's recipe is a family favorite. Follow the instructions to prepare a meal that may be complicated but worth the effort when you see the smiles on your children's faces after just one bite. The nice thing about this dish too is that each family member will have received thier entire sodium requirement for almost two weeks!

By the way, at work today I defiantly used half a roll of toilet paper to wipe my arse. TAKE THAT Charmin Bear! Mwwwwwaaaaaahahhahaha! Although I am pretty sure it wasn't Charmin come to think of it.

I'm glad Heroes is back on, the premier was great - besides the fact that over half the show was in subtitles. I'm watching TV. If I wanted to read, I would have bought the comic book.

It is DISTURBING and a little frustrating that every morning when I reach for the toilet paper to wipe my ass, I can see the face of that bear in the Charmin ad shaking his head at his child bear because she is using to much toilet tissue. This morning I actually backed up the roll because of this - I thought "no, I don't need this much". I am not even sure we use Charmin.

baconbaconbaconGrrrr. Someone at work made bacon in the break room. My mouth has NOT stopped salivating and that was like 2 hours ago. I wandered down there like a bear at a campsite, opening every cabinet looking for anything. All I found was the empty bacon box. Now I want a BLT for supper. grrrr.

Today I called my mom to tell her how excited I was about some new freelance writing I am doing. She asked me what it was about. In the middle of explaining it to her she blurts out with her Wiscahnsin accent "Holy cats, a giant bird just flew over da house and den accross the street".Silence.completely stunned I say "and?"she says "landed."Then I continued.

Today on the way to work I saw a small handwritten sign on a stick near the driveway of a typical midwest home. It said: "Free Old Glass Jars".I wondered if that was like "Free Tibet".

Pat says if I am annoyed with the bunnies in the yard eating all my wild flowers then I should stop putting out the beer biscuts, the pizza, the foccacia, etc. He says that attracts more of them. But honestly, is there anything more adorable than a bunny chewing on a fried chicken breast?

Its raining today. The parking lot at work smells like cold MacDonalds french fries. I think that must be what anxious worms smell like.
