Stuck in The Middle
Oh, Sandra Fluke, if you'd only known what a controversy you'd stir. I bet you would have rolled over and hit the snooze button instead.

For Men Everywhere
I realize I've spoken, in vague generalities, of the Great Mother's Day Meltdown of 2000. Over a decade has passed since that fateful day. Since then I've spent countless hours going over the details, trying to glean something positive from the mass destruction. Other than my impenetrable 'Mother's Day Sucks' shell, I really had nothing. I couldn't come up with one iota of life lesson to pass along to my readers.

Inspired by True Events
Write what you know.
I've never had any trouble expressing the events of my life in a non-fiction form-hence the blog. And when it comes to fiction, I do the same. Not always purposely. Sometimes life experiences, people, personalities and places sneak in, finding their way past my consciousness, only to be discovered later like a long lost friend who'd been buried under the rubble of an earthquake.

The Replacements
* Author's Note: Recently I've been on a quest to 'clean up' my blog. In most cases I've eliminated what could be considered torrential potty mouth. I've also made a concerted effort to adhere to basic rules of grammar. However, due to the exhaustive nature of events which occurred yesterday, this post will do neither. In light of the fact that I now have a refrigerator in my dining room, with no plans to get it into the kitchen, I hope you will understand.

That's a Wrap
So I'm packing school lunches. It's Monday, which means my packing skills are slightly impaired from my weekend festivities. Slightly impaired, meaning I might put a tad too much jelly on the PB&J or forget that one child only drinks apple juice, while the other only drinks fake juice. Nothing that will cause major lunch meltdowns.

The Blogging Payoff
Why bother blogging? Really, if you think about it, blogging has long since passed its heyday. Marketers aren't as quick to jump on board and offer sponsorship. It's highly unlikely your blog will stand out, grabbing the attention of a large publishing house (do those even exist anymore?), garnering you a multi-million book deal. All in all, blogging in general could be considered a gigantic waste of time. Give it up! Go Pinteresting instead...

Do You Bamboo?

Over the past two months I've undergone several rounds of testing on the old ticker. Everything is fine. I have what is known in the cardiovascular world as PVC's, or premature ventricular contractions. Nothing to worry about since my super clean diet (cough) has kept away any and all signs of heart disease. On my last trip to the doc, we went over the results of my CT scan, which were pretty darn cool.

A Priest By Any Other Name

It's happened again. A high-ish ranking official of the Catholic Church has resigned. Thankfully, this time it wasn't due to harming children--unless you count having children as harming them--in which case this guy really blew it.
