With the Fall season right around the corner as September firmly plants its feet in the ground, we’ll all soon begin to see the debate around pumpkin spice heat up. The vitriol behind the chatter on this seasonal flavor is truly mind-blowing. It’s a spice, people, not something as important as having one’s reproductive rights… Read More The Pumpkin Spice Wars…
Warning: Not much humor is in this blog, because Aggravated Annette decided to come out to play today. The other day, I came across a post that is unfortunately all too common these days. It goes something like this: A picture is posted of a man or woman (but usually it’s a woman) and people… Read More Cyberbullying
I know…I just can’t help myself. Whenever I come across something interesting related to my vagina, clitoris and other private parts, I have to share it with y’all. I don’t know if it was vagina week or what, but there were three interesting things that caught my ear or eye this past week. I know… Read More Let’s Talk Private Parts
I’m not much of a gambler. In the past when I’ve gone to Las Vegas, I’ve never spent more than $20.00 on the slot machines. Total, not per day. Sure, I’d go with my mother to Bingo every time I would visit, but that was more about spending time with her, doing something she loved.… Read More Gambling
While we were driving through New Mexico, I noticed a sign that said: If you don’t establish your brand, be prepared to be branded (or something like that).

Her exact words are: just push me off a cliff. Unfortunately it became all too apparent when visiting my father that… Read More Push me off a cliff

However, when joking… Read More Good Corruption
Having friends who live in a beautiful part of the country on the way to my father’s house in Florida is a tremendous advantage. Our friends, who live on Lake Cumberland, are graciously hosting us for a whole week. Finally, we can chill for awhile. Don’t worry, I’ll get to the old eyes part of… Read More Old Eyes
I’ve always wondered where the term back seat driver came from because from my point of view, those unwanted suggestions usually originate from someone in the passenger seat…especially in an RV. Sure, technically we do have a back seat and if we were hauling my grandmother, she would most definitely be giving the person her… Read More Back Seat RV Driver
I’ve often talked about how I am a total pantster as a writer. I definitely fly by the seat of my pants as I write a book. I’ll have a general idea and then just let the writing take me wherever. What is so odd about this is that in everything else in my life,… Read More Not a Pantster in Life
