I used to love fall. When we got a few rainy days in August, I used to get excited at the thought of more days spent inside without guilt about how I should be enjoying the sun, cooler nights when I can again use my down comforter, college football, blustery weather, drinking hot chocolate, […]
Remember cute IT guy? Well, he works here full time now. And, as far as I know, he’s still married. I just had a brief conversation with him and even though I know he’s completely out of the running (see above comments about being married and a co-worker), I felt myself getting all red […]
My friend Lisa sent me this link, thank God. Oh, I mean the Flying Spaghetti Monster. Reading this has been the brightest spot of an otherwise crummy day.
Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster
It’s official. I went to my parents’ house this past weekend and weighed myself on the only scale I trust. I’ve gained almost ten pounds. And every single one of them has gone to my butt. Oh, except the one or two that seem to have attached themselves as love handles.
This morning, I […]
I have all kinds of things on my mind and was looking forward to several amusing and cathartic posts about them. For example, I saw “My Super Sweet 16″ on MTV for the first time this weekend. Holy crap.
But I just can’t bring myself to be amusing or profound about things like spoiled, rich girls […]
Just in case anyone out there thinks we pinko, commie, liberal Seattlites don’t respect the military or support the work they are doing (not that pinkos eat at Canlis, but still)…

On this day, August 26, in 1920, the 19th Amendment gave women the right to vote. Any time I want to chuck it all, have babies, and bake cookies for the rest of my life, I think of the women (and men) who sacrificed so much and worked so hard to give me that […]
I had a friend in high school named Beth. Beth was sweet and pretty and everyone loved her. I mean EVERYONE. There wasn’t one person in the whole damn county who didn’t think she was the bee’s knees. Since I loved her too, I didn’t question it until I was about a junior, at which […]
Apparently, Alias’ Jennifer Garner is trying to get Michael Vartan’s character killed off. (”Well, first of all, my name isn’t Michael Vaughn.”)
I swear, if they do it, I’ll stop watching Alias AND Lost. And don’t even get me started on the MI:3 boycott I’d start.
RALLY FOR DOOMED ‘ALIAS’ STAR
Fortunately, there’s hope:
Vartan’s Hos
Just to be clear […]
I’ve been trying to figure out how to write about Cindy Sheehan for days. While Joe and I were out last week, we drove by a group of people participating in the vigil held in support of her. We both got teary and I honked the horn in solidarity. I was touched, but couldn’t figure […]
