Haste Makes Waste and all that….
I have the day off. Like, REALLY off.
My son is at school. My daughter is at day care for the morning (Nanny has class Thursday AMs). And I am here at home. And anyone who thinks that is shitty and selfish? Hmm… yeah… you probably don’t read this blog anyway. [...]

Passing on my evil genes…
It seems I am going to have to let my six year old in on my plan for World Domination. Which is OK. Everyone needs an evil protege, right?
Anyway - it seems he’s getting bullied at school. The idea of first graders already bullying amazes me - in a “what the fuck is wrong with [...]

Sucking it up…
OK, so according to Rich, I need to “suck it up”. And while my usual response when someone tells me to “suck it up” is “fuck off” - I not only like Rich, I respect him.
So, here I am, sucking it the fuck up.
I finished up the Deal From Hell at work. It [...]

I’m recovering…
I’ll be a little AWOL. I need a moment to recover from…
One Thanksgiving meal cooked at my house.
Four Thanksgiving dinners dutifully attended.
One Christmas/Family reunion
Two encounters with Santa that scared the shit out of my daughter
Three poker nights “hosted” by my husband
Two out of the last four nights with roughly four hours of sleep
Seven hours traveling [...]

Remembering…
Thanksgiving is supposed to about family. And food. And laughter and joy and wonderful things.
It’s not supposed to be this.
Thanksgiving is not supposed to be sitting on a cold, hard pew in an empty funeral home. My brothers are sitting beside me, too young to grasp how wrong this all is.
Family. And friends. And rooms [...]

Evil Genius Disarmed
After all of these years, it seems I have finally broken my husband’s spirit, along with his faith in mankind. Or, er, womankind anyway.
Last night, he crawls into bed beside me and begins frantically feeling around for all of the extra blankets and sheets, as he does every night. I never have time to make [...]

show me your mercy
You know all that stuff I said about how the one thing you could all do to make me happy before I die is send me to Prince?
I lied.
The one thing you can do? Just kill me. Kill me right fucking now.
Before one. more. goddamned. thing. can go wrong.
K? Thanks.

Sex Ed in Elementary Ed
A few days ago, the kids and I were watching some free Baby Einstein TV or something that we’d scammed during a Free Preview week (TiVo, you rock). They were going through body parts and a picture of a kids backside in jeans flashed up on the screen.
“That’s a buttocks.”
I turned and looked at my [...]

It’s all backstage…
… there is a post up that you must be registered and logged in to read.
I will warn you now. It absolutely falls under the Way Too Much Information category. Don’t believe me? I got my “inspiration” from this guy’s list.
For the rest of you, who either know better than to go digging into a post like [...]

Unloading
Whew. The Getting To Know You series is officially over. And still, I can’t quite get back to the “funny tales from the everyday life of Miss Britt” just yet.
And not just because I’ve got a hot renter to pimp.
I feel like there’s some things I need to set straight.
You see, I received a few [...]
