construction ahead

By me • Apr 18th, 2008 • Category: rants, today's blog 365 post

Call me paranoid, but I am convinced that the Michigan Department of Transportation planned it’s summer road construction schedule for no other reason than to fuck with me.

If you’ve read any of my previous entries it’s painfully obvious to anyone that I’m not above having emotionally based, illogical, knee-jerk reactions to things. But in this [...]



a few letters

By me • Apr 8th, 2008 • Category: rants, today's blog 365 post

Dear taxpayers,
The library is merely a dumping ground for IRS forms. We don’t order them, we simply accept what the IRS sends us and then distribute them as a public service. Quit your whiney-ass complaining when we don’t have what you need. You’re living in the 21st century, learn how to use the computer to [...]



dear bitch

By me • Mar 6th, 2008 • Category: rants, today's blog 365 post, weird stuff that happens to me

Dear blonde bitch that tried to start a fight with me at the Meijer gas station,
I will try to use short sentences and small words because it is obvious that someone with your mental capacity can’t comprehend (that means understand) anything else. After all, anyone with even the smallest amount of people skills would [...]



reality sucks

By me • Jan 21st, 2008 • Category: rants, today's blog 365 post

How my day was supposed to go:

6:30 a.m. - wake up, shower, pack stuff up to go back to Detroit
7:30-8:30 a.m - have a greasy breakfast at IHOP with my family
9-11:30 a.m. - drive to Detroit
11:30-12:30 p.m - drop the boys off at the apartment, have lunch, get ready for work
1-5:00 p.m. - work at [...]



bullshit

By me • Nov 15th, 2007 • Category: nablopomo, rants

I have spent the last three days of my life constructing an eight page paper filled with gold-plated bullshit. This project was the most pointless busy work I have ever been assigned in my life. In addition to the paper I have also made a power point presentation and handout for class tonight, all on [...]



how I broke the blog

By me • Oct 30th, 2007 • Category: misc, rants

It all happened because I was trying to upgrade to Wordpress 2.3.1, mainly because there were some security issues with the recent upgrade. Not that anything on my account is so incredibly important that it can’t be replaced, but I just didn’t want anyone getting in and erasing my most embarrassing moments (that I’ve broadcast [...]



crafty, not krafty

By me • Jan 28th, 2007 • Category: knitting, rants, school

Wikipedia definition of crafts:
A craft is a skill, especially involving practical arts. It may refer to a trade or particular art.”
I will admit it - I am a proud craftsperson. I sew, spin, and knit in my spare time (also refinish furniture when the mood is right.) Normally I immediately follow that admission up with [...]



wanting what you’ve got

By me • Nov 28th, 2006 • Category: family, rants

First - simply as a gimmick to get your attention - here’s a gratuitous baby pic. I haven’t posted any of Amelia lately and she’s growing up so fast, she doesn’t even look like a baby anymore, she looks like a little girl, and she amazes me with how sweet, smart, and funny she is [...]
