There are two things to know about my family as I start this post: 1 – My mother has colon cancer. 2 – We are the family that truly puts the FUN in dysfunctional. Cancer sucks. It sucks balls. Or, in my mother’s case, it sucks BUTT (get it). You don’t have to have cancer [...]

What happens at the end?
I try to be an upbeat person most of the time (at least, upbeat in the sense that I am grouchy and sarcastic, but I’m trying to be WITTY about it). I think I have a pretty good life and I really have no complaints. But I realized in the past few days that I [...]

Redeeming qualities? Who needs ‘em!

I seriously love this woman
People. I have issues. Serious ones. And they all revolve around her: ©Streamline Holy smokes, there, Lady Gaga. Where are your clothes? This is a still shot from a video for the song Love Game, which, in my best estimation, can really only be described as soft core porn. This song is on her album, [...]

Coolest job ever
I find myself lately being completely engrossed with pop culture. Now, I have no idea if the things I seem to like are actually COOL pieces of pop culture, or if they are just popular nonsense that get lots of airtime. For example, I know that there is nothing cool about, say, Paris Hilton. Or, for [...]
