Do you guys want to hear the funniest story ever? Of course you do! After I told the story about the time I got a chance to give my ex a taste of his own medicine, I thought maybe you guys might like to hear about the time I got to give my mother a
Last week I had one day in particular that was a little bit crazier than my normal crazy days. It started off as a fairly routine day. I had a meeting scheduled with a domestic abuse shelter, then I was supposed to head over to Mr. Attorney Man’s office for a quick conversation, and then
A couple of weeks ago I was going through the small bin that I keep in the back of my crawlspace filled with mementos from my childhood. I was sort of mulling over the few things that I had kept, the few memories that I hold dear from that period in my life. A novelty
Look at me, I’m finally getting around to answering more of the questions you guys posed when I said you could ask me anything you wanted in the comments section of the post “Here’s Your Chance!” I’m going to tackle two questions with one answer today, because I’m savvy like that. I’m also nerdy and
Both of my kids birthday’s are going to be coming up in the next few weeks and it got me thinking about being pregnant with both of them. I have to tell you, pregnancy is a really weird thing. It’s weird to me that it didn’t feel more natural, but it just didn’t. I wasn’t
Do you remember in my Boyfriend Application post I said that I thought I was ready to give a real monogamous relationship a try? Well, it didn’t quite work out like that. If you remember correctly, for quite a while I was dating quite a few people at one time, but nothing serious. In fact,
Do you ever find yourself thinking “I can’t believe I just said that?” Mothers, I know you do this. “Stop licking your sisters eyeball. Get your toe out of your brothers cereal.” I find myself thinking “I can’t believe I just said that” at leave five times a day, so this week I thought it
So I started out this weekend with big plans, big plans to do nothing. We have been exceedingly busy the last few weekends with a pretty crazy social schedule and so it was important to take a weekend where the kids could just chill, relax, and play with their toys. It started out pretty well.
As I said in the post “Oh F*ck I Peed On The Floor,” both of my kid’s birthdays are within a several week time period. Since I told you about how much I enjoyed tolerated being pregnant with my daughter, I thought it only fair that I also tell you about being pregnant with my
A few months ago a woman who I will now refer to as my “Awesome Editor Friend” contacted me through my blog and offered me the opportunity to write for two different sites, Catster and Dogster. I was obviously excited, but seeing as how I currently have no pets of my own, I wasn’t sure
To the woman who isn’t yet free, You are someone. I don’t care what he tells you or what he tries to make you believe, you are someone. You aren’t a failure. You aren’t worthless, stupid, a burden, or anything else that he tries to make you believe. You are amazing and he knows it.
Yay! It’s time for another edition of “things that just make you ask why” courtesy of Eden’s phone. (IN OTHER NEWS; make sure you read to the bottom for a few random updates to Not My Shame’s media pages) Why am I going to have a heart attack at the ripe old age of 31?
My husband said he was going to the store... and never came back. It's been a crazy life that's left me functional enough to survive yet dysfunctional enough to make me funny.
