Every Woman Deserves a Tiara

Beautiful tiara

Or man, if he wants one. There is a great scene in my favorite show Big Bang Theory where one of the male characters has been a total douche to his girlfriend and buys her a tiara to make it up. Go look up Amy Farrah Fowler tiara on Youtube. Normally, I would just embed …

On a Wildly Less Profound Note

evil goddamn cow

I learned last night that I am far too lazy and probably old to get drunk on anything but wine. I was going to cut lose and get drunk last night and have a good ole time with Tina and the ladies. I had a drink and a half and just didn’t have it in …

I *Might* Have Lied A Little

I had determined not to write about current events. I’ve made a few feminist mini-rants on my site’s Facebook page, but that is because I’m a dirty feminist. Still, I was going to rant about current events. I can’t do that though. I need to say things. The shootings in the Sikh temple in Oak …

Sometimes You Get to Be Very Happy

ANother for the list of happy.

I am ridiculously, stupidly happy. So many people would gather this time in their hands and shield it from the world, because they fear showing it, and celebrating it, would be tempting something bad to happen.

Not Feeling It

French bulldog with a leaf

Gurney Halleck told Paul Atreides  “Mood’s a thing for cattle or lovemaking or playing the baliset. It’s not for fighting.” Yes, I just quoted Dune at you. It is one of my favorite books in the history of ever. I am worn out. I am so sick of hate and arguing and chicken. I realized …

It is the great thing about being an oddly positive person. My muscles are twitching all over my neck, shoulders, and the base of my …

And Other Days, The World is Full of Happy

I wrote Tuesday after some stressful days. I was getting more zen and picking myself back up, but I think it is important to write about days when you cry while vacuuming. It brings days like today in sharp and happy relief. First bit of happy came when I read this article. It doesn’t make …

Throttling People is Illegal

Story time at Starbucks

So, you know how I repeatedly say happiness is a choice? It is. Sometimes it is a struggle. The past two days have SUCKED. I am neither willing or able to go into why. I am just summing it up with douche bags be douching. Except the Viking, he is coming out of this like …

Random Act of Humanity

So, as said last blog, I’m going to make an effort to post things that make me crazy happy and fill me with hope for humans. This isn’t my real Saturday post, just an addition to the List of Happy. When I was a tiny thing I escaped while my mom was distracted and started …

In Times Like These

Be the goat

We live in trying and querulous times. Everyone is uneasy because of something. The economy sucks. We are in an election year. People are fighting for progress, people are fighting for the status quo, and people are fighting to return to some idealized past. This is the time when people yell angrily and passionately, trying …
