Where the Madness Happens
I wanted a place where I can share my favorite website and/or blog of the week. Plus, we’ll see if we can make any damn sense of The Soundtrack of my Mind – so feel free to analyze away (if will probably save me a ton on therapy bills!) This is the place where the […]
Star Wars on Acid
Let’s just get it out there – I did drugs when I was younger. My first husband, The Loser, was a big fan of all drugs, legal and illegal. And being young and stupid, I joined in. It wasn’t a great decision as my thinking wasn’t really clear when I was high and I often […]
Clash of the Tiny Titans
I think we’ve already established that I wasn’t the most popular girl in school, although I desperately wanted to be in the “in” crowd. As a result, I had a love-hate relationship with the mean girls in school. I really wanted them to accept me and let me be a part of their […]
Hail is Hell
I usually love tempests – as long as I’m in a spot where I can observe the wind, rain, and lightning in relative safety. However, there is one form of precipitation that ferociously attacks, trying to kill me even when I’m huddled in fear inside my house or car. I tell you, it has it […]
Even the Aliens Didn’t Want Me
The Soundtrack of My Mind played Katy Perry’s E.T. last night – I took that as a sign that my next story should be about my history with aliens… I had a rather lonely childhood. I wasn’t the most popular gal at school and I was often the target of bullying by the mean girls […]
My First Grown Up Party

My maternal grandmother was regionally famous for her depression era parties, where hoards of neighbors would spend the evening dancing, singing, chatting, and eating. My mother inherited this trait and after the dream home was built, it was the site of many social gatherings. On any […]
The Soundtrack of My Mind
The Soundtrack of my Mind I don’t sleep well. I’m like some mutant hybrid of a night owl and an early bird – going to bed just before the stroke of midnight and waking up before the crack of dawn. Most of this stems from the fact that my mind NEVER SHUTS UP! Whenever I […]
The Secret Room
I’ve always been a big fan of intrigue, mystery, and hidden treasure. When I was 18, I wanted to sign up as part of the crew for a treasure hunting ship in the Caribbean. My parents were not too keen on the idea, especially since I would have had to put down a $5000 stake […]
