There are a metric ton of blog posts here (I know because I’ve weighed them),
but if you want the Cliff’s Notes version, check this out!
Didn’t You See the Signs?
It was a throwaway line, one that he issued in a fit of rage. But it stung nevertheless. "Didn't you see the signs?" my future ex asked as I confronted him about the other woman, the brick, the connections between him and Marilyn at my children’s school (with my...
How I Became a Scrabble Whore
(Alternate title: Look! I have the words “dominatrix” and “Old Boring Guy” in the same post!) While I fully recognize your vicarious affinity for the soap opera that is my current life, we’re going to interrupt “Days of my (Bat-Shit Crazy) Life” with a jaunt down...
A Blog for a Blog?
If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, consider me WAY flattered. (Wait a sec. You know, there's one more way I could have chosen to start this blog, so I'll just throw this one out there, too.) There's a new #1. Yip, you heard right, people. You...
The Wiggles and the Wails

A funny thing happened to me on the way to my divorce... Yes, I realize that sounds like a bad punch line. But seriously, it is a bizarre experience when you realize it is, officially, over — that your divorce is inevitable. Your mind goes to...
What (or rather, “Who”) is Me 2.0?
OK, so who here remembers life pre-Internet? I know I do. I remember — even as recently as 1998, when I received my master’s degree — spending countless hours at the college library, feeding meters and avoiding the glances of desperately lonely frat boys,...
Is She Hot?
Have you ever noticed when you are at your most vulnerable, someone invariably ends up asking you a question that sends you into a tailspin. A total tailspin, complete with the immediate urge to raid the pantry for any/all chocolate, plop yourself onto the couch...
I heart symbols! (and this one totally rocks…)
OK, so no superheroes in this post. No bricks, either. Just the best damn symbol EVER. I found this GIANT eraser at a local Dollar Tree while searching for authentic toga gear for Boyfriend Brett -- and yes, I was as surprised as you to learn a good...
