How To Make A Grown Man Cry

Step One is buying a $28.64 steak at the grocery.  This occurs, because despite knowing it’s a BAD idea going to the store hungry, you do it at all costs, in order to gorge on all the free handouts.  You are firmly of the opinion that coming in under budget means you splurge somewhere.  You [...]

This is my first time participating in Lotus’ Weekly Winners.  I don’t pretend to be camera savvy, but I thought I got a couple of cute ones of Sweetie Darling this week.  Enjoy.

F**k ‘Ku

The tale of a word
That I can’t quite decipher
But sounds just like “Fook.”
Oh, Daddy Dearest.
Tar and feathers await you!
‘Cause you drop Eff bombs!
I substitute &
Say “foot, fork” even “fart”

Sweet little boy child!
Far too young for potty mouth
Gonna KILL the Pup.

Unoriginal (RM’s words…not mine)

Random Mommy wanted us to share a little more about ourselves with the class.  As she’s never to my knowledge done a meme before, I certainly wanted to encourage her to do more by quickly doing this one.  And, boy howdy she’s powerful.  I’ve seen at least three people that NEVER do memes comply with [...]

Put your left foot in (your mouth) and shake it all about…

Well, now that I’ve actually sorta kinda but not really figured out how to write a post in these here new digs, I better start in on the unpacking of my verbal diarrhea.

Ugg-sagne ala the Undomestic Goddess

The horror of all horrors. If you remember from Friday, I had serious vertigo from my latest sinus infection. Pup, in his infinite wisdom chose to ignore my pleading and decided to go to work, despite the five weeks of paid vacation. The Boy Wonder and I had a lovely day camped in my bed [...]

Haiku Friday: Green Berets (and Phlegm)

Welcome Home, Cousin!!
15 months in Iraq - done
Please support our troops

We missed you, Tommy
Loved your pics on Saddam’s thrones
We’re sure proud of you.

Freedom isn’t free
Don’t forget they are still there

Swimming in green phlegm
A steroid shot in my arse
Mitchell Report next?

MLB eat your heart out
I’m the new Barry!

Sinus infection

He Now Thinks Less of Me

After almost 13 years together, my spouse has just informed me there was something he didn’t know about me (although I have shared this with him before…and got the same reaction) that boggled his mind. He told me it made him think less of me. My crime? I liked New Coke.
Do you remember that whole [...]
