I saw a house near the wood
Fresh, clean, new
It spoke to me of the woman I could be
Broke. Poor. Homeless.
It’s a $140k house in a $10 neighborhood, is what it is.
This place is in the perfect location to teach piano from home. When we drove up, I liked the neighborhood, the quiet street with [...]

The babies are 5 weeks and one day old today. It’s getting about time for mom to turn off the gravy train and make ‘em eat, and I gotta tell ya, I’ve been pretty curious about how she’s gonna handle the potty training. They’ve never been out of the house, and I don’t want her [...]

Reward Offered! If you’ve seen these two, click on the poster and let their mom know. She’s worried sick. Bessie likes butter, so if you find hoofprints in yours, you’ve been visited!
I must admit, these are some travelin’ kows. They keep me laughing – they get around more than a Washington intern in Congress.

OK, the little freak/freaks who have been playing around with my address and phone number have gone too far. This morning I was awakened by a telemarketer from some baby website that I APPARENTLY REGISTERED for, since I am due in June. The fat virgin queen of North America is gonna have a baby. Riiiiiight.

Gyah. What a week! I FINALLY finished my taxes tonight, and I only owe $9 to the state. The feds got nuthin’. I don’t feel a bit guilty about that, since as a single with no dependents for 22 years or so, I have paid my share and the share of a few others over [...]

No, I haven’t fallen off the earth. I’ve just been a bit distracted lately, and I didn’t really want to let anybody know how deep the doodoo is around me at the moment. Also, every time I sit down to type, a furbaby decides that it wants to be held, dagnabbit, and NOW. While I [...]
