(After writing that title and staring at it for a minute, it occurred to me that this could very much sound like it was a post about an *ahem* bathroom…incident. But I assure you it’s not. This story does not end in the bathroom. Nor does it begin in the bathroom. It doesn’t even transition [...]

When Sleeping on the Couch might be a Good Idea
For our anniversary, I was Rockstar Wife and gave Dorian a signed & personalized, Bill’s jersey. Ahem, or really, Aimee was Rockstar Sister, and responded to my random text message asking her which Bill’s player would be a name that Dorian would want on a jersey, by emailing her contacts at Jim Kelly’s office asking if he’d [...]
I love him…
I don’t know what it is. I don’t understand the logic. Quite frankly, the underlying stubborn streak of it all, annoys me. But there is something in me that really rails against anything along the lines of What You Should Feel. Because what if I don’t want to feel that way? Hmm, WHAT THEN? Maybe [...]
Love/Hate Relationship
Do you want to know what makes for an explosively cranky evening? There’s quite an exact recipe, really. Let me share it with you:
You take – One part Husband, combined with a handful of crass bar-mates, add three or four big-screen TV’s all turned to the same game, 3-5 beers per bar stool, and shared appetizers [...]
The Last Day I Cried about Moving
It had been a particularly rough couple days at work. Rough for no other reason than we’d just come back from vacation and no one transitions from vacation into work seamlessly. We dragged ourselves through a work out and then headed home. I arrived home from working out first. Dorian was about fifteen minutes behind [...]
Because I have a very Naughty sense of Humor
This weekend, Dorian and I devoted a great deal of time to researching the P90X videos and overall program. We watched multiple videos, deciding which ones we could do here at our apartment. You know, ones that wouldn’t piss off our neighbors. And we watched others to decide if we’d have to do them downtown [...]
Somebody’s Got a Birthday!
I’ve been stuck here at the beginning for about 15 minutes now because I can’t think of an introduction aside from:
Happy Birthday, (insert mushy-gushy, embarrassing pet name, here)!
And since I made the mistake, about two months ago, of calling him by one of the more mockable pet names that I have for him in front [...]
I feel like the ‘B’ word…
And it’s because of the ‘P’ word…
But knowing the cause of this particularly heinous level of CRANKY doesn’t seem to ease the blow at all. In fact, it seems to make it that much more aggravating. I mean, I know why I’m so touchy. You would think I’d be able to have a bit more [...]
I didn’t say it would be in Order
We had such an amazing, extended Holiday weekend. I love any and all holidays. Especially when the day of the actual holiday flanks a weekend. And even more when I can take the day off of work before that Holiday Flanker and have a four day weekend! The euphoria caused by a Two-fer weekend like [...]
Great, Big, Sad Day
I feel like time is speeding by today, very slowly. That doesn’t make sense, does it? No, it does not. It’s just that, every time I’ve looked at the clock today, i’ve been impressed with how much time has lapsed since I last looked at the clock. But I am still overcome with sadness when [...]
