The Presidential Election and Infertility Law
I think I deserve a pat on the back for not calling this post “Newt is an Ass”. Newt Gingrich, the disgraced former speaker of the House that was pushed out in a ground–breaking censure by his own colleagues for ethics violations, is somehow inexplicably an actual contender for President of the United States of America. Yes, in America we (at least some of us) love mediocrity – we love presidents that drop out of college and can’t even fulfill their obligations to their constituents. I literally think I’m getting a repeated use injury from...
Read MoreSh*t Fat Phobic People Say
I don’t know if you’ve seen this meme lighting up YouTube. I’m not sure where it started but it consists of videos called “Shit x say to y” where x and y are opposite groups. E.g. Things White Chicks Say To Black Chicks. There were a few called Things Fat Girls say that were full of hungry, snack munching, lonely fat chicks. I thought it needed an answer! Here is my submission! Sh*t Fat Phobic People Say.

Have you hear the hulabaloo about the Colorado Girl Scout Troop that admitted a transgendered girl? How about the other Girl Scout troops that have protested by disbanding or posting hateful videos on YouTube? It all really makes me sick to my stomach. I was a Girl Scout, my mom was a Girl Scout leader. My sister was one of those hardcore primitive camping type Girl Scout. While I was a more sewing and cooking kinda Girl Scout. That was one of the things that was wonderful about it – it allowed for a very diverse definition of what it meant to be a girl. There were no limits...

Attention Children: Effective immediately, in order to ensure a fair distribution of both responsibility and rewards, we will be implementing a 9-9-9 parenting plan. Children can now expect: 9 minutes of breastfeeding at each breastfeeding session. If you are still hungry you will not receive more nursing time. If you are full at 8 minutes you will be required to continue suckling until you reach 9 minutes. 9 minutes of comfort per day. Please plan your crying and other needs accordingly because there will not be a plan for extended comfort minutes. 9 diaper changes per day. Do...
Read MoreWhy Buy Handmade?
“But it is so expensive!” “I can’t afford handmade!” These are some of the things you often hear about products that are handmade by artisans like those you’ll find at Etsy.com. I’d like to take you on a journey of two products to look at the real cost of each item. Before I get started I want to point out that the choice between the bottom-dollar plastic toy and the much more expensive handmade, quality item is not a choice we all have the luxury to make. This post is intended for those of us that are privelaged enough to make that choice and I...
