Bill Maher is a BOOB

I’ve been triple dog dared to give my reaction to some B-list celebrity comparing breastfeeding to masturbation. He says women who breastfeed in public are lazy and exhibitionists. Did this celebrity fail anatomy 101? Does he consider those plastic balloons at the Playboy Mansion the same as real, working breasts? How inflated is the ego […]

It’s just soap.

Sarah is not the only person in our family who is funny in a store. Yesterday, OCD Man Doug and I ran in the red bullseye store for a few items. I tasked Doug with finding body wash while I grabbed toothpaste and shampoo. I picked my two items and paused to search a clearance […]

Make sure you notice her […]

graffitti

Do you have chalk for this weekend? I have extra pieces in my purse. Just ask. First stop with chalk in pocket? The rainy Farragut vs Bearden football game.

lesser of two evils

I feel like I am betraying my gender by admitting this, but I don’t think Mary Winkler should get custody of her children. I am absolutely positive that the paternal grandparents shouldn’t be raising the children either. There must be another option.
