It Wasn’t Aliens
I’m not the kind to freak out in a crisis, I’m probably too calm. If I happen to be asleep, I’m so completely irrational you should just leave me for dead. Sometime in the wee hours things happened. Boyfriend lives a block over and he said he heard electrical buzzing and saw flashes of light. […]

Dog People
This was how my face looked last Thursday. Boyfriend and I hustled around the grocery store after work to get a handful of items and got to a checkout line with no wait. He puts everything on the belt and we start arguing over who is going to get the honor of paying. I’m in […]

Windows.
Most of my rants are intended to be funny, I can find humor in almost anything. Except Windows 10. I’m one of those old weirdos who has worked in an office setting for most of my life. I cut my teeth on Windows 3.0 at my first job but I can’t remember it having any […]

Puppet Show
I participated in Halloween and ended up crawling with mice.

All Hallows’ Eve
I don’t hand out candy. First, and most importantly, I have a very sensitive dog.

It is kind of understandable; you go about your average day; […]

A walk in the park
I have two dogs. They are so completely different from one another; it feels like three. Brick doesn’t like kids and I can’t blame him. Think about it from a dog’s perspective; they smell funny, if they’ve a full diaper they smell gross, they’re often sticky, they’re wobbly, they’re prone to loud unexplained outbursts. Kinda […]

You dropped something
I go home for lunch every day. For the last couple weeks I’ve been driving like a psychopath. I’m so fed up with the wall-to-wall trucks, the girl doing her make up, the guy playing video games, the tesla’s that just make their own rules. The best defense is a good offense so, pedal to […]

Few moments of history..
I don’t suppose a person really knows at the time an event is happening that it will one day be noted in history books or grace the cover of Time magazine on the ten-year anniversary of said event. At almost 50 I’m on the cusp of “senior citizen” so I’m sure there are many things […]

Trashy Neighbor
On today’s episode of why my neighborhood sucks: I was walking Brick and saw a guy walking on the opposite side of the street in our direction. Brick got bristly, which is unusual on sight of a human, so we stopped to wait for him to pass. Completely oblivious to us standing on the sidewalk […]
