Protocol For The Bidet
I admit it. I’m stupid, sheltered, uncultured, a real faux diva (love the oxymoron in the last one).
I arrived in Athens this afternoon, and after a bit of hyperventiliation about whether I’d be able to find my way around considering that I don’t speak or read Greek, I realized that English is everywhere and managed [...]
And Away We Go
Well not actually “we.” Just me.
I’m sitting in the USAirways club (thanks to my Envoy Class ticket) waiting to head downstairs to board the first leg of my trip. I’m flying through Munich to Athens (no, not Georgia) for a work meeting, then on the 31st, I will head to Prague for the International Papillomavirus [...]
Plane Sick
Lord, let me tell you. I am so fricking sick of being on a plane. In one week, I’ve been on 10 plane rides (from wheels up to wheels down, as the pilots like to say). It’s not getting old. It is ancient. I am so done.
Let me catalog some of my recent Incidents on [...]
Which Hood Should I Choose?
know you thought I was all done with my choices for my kitchen, but alas no. I’m still floundering on a few items. Here’s my previous post for a review: Welcome to the Dollhouse: Oh This Kitchen…
I changed the dishwasher a little to get the Miele with the hidden display (incognito display) and handle:
I [...]
Apostrophe Crime Wave - Part Two
Just when I thought it was safe to walk around the office, the following sign appeared:
I had to take it down…I just had to.
What’s up with Yahoo Driving Directions these days? On Sunday they got me lost in Jackson, Mississippi. Tonight, I got lost in Lansing, Michigan. (Ended up in Bath.) Guess I shouldn’t [...]
The Common Thread Project
Stirrup Queens and Sperm Palace Jesters: The Common Thread Project
What a wonderful idea. Reminds me of the Zappy Magic bracelets that AdoringHusband and I wore for about 2 years.
I’m going to find this thread or some pomegranate yarn to wear as part of this project.
Anyone feel like joining me?
I Was Annoyed, Now I’m Pissed
esterday I returned home to find another letter from our adoption agency (asking for $1200 for our home study course) that was addressed to Mr. & Mrs. HisFirstName HisLastName. Now you may remember my previous screed on this topic: Welcome to the Dollhouse: A Titular Mess
So after all my complaints, corrections and pleading, this adoption [...]
Not Without My MAC!
t was fun flying on Thursday, the day the terrorist threat was uncovered. If any of you expect this post to be in any way a serious analysis of terrorism, our ability to detect liquid explosives or detail about the British plot, you will be sorely disappointed. I leave such items to the current event [...]
December???
Just found out today that my cool refrigerator choice, the new Thermador Freedom 36″ 3-door built in won’t be available until between late October to early December!
The appliance guy wants me to pick something else. He’s pushing the SubZero:
But as AdoringHusband continues to say, it looks like it belongs in the grocery store. I [...]
Apostrophe Crime Wave
’ve got to give it to Brian Sack, the author of the hilarious leather pants eBay ad that gave him 15 well-deserved minutes of fame: DKNY Men’s Leather Pants I Unfortunately Own
He recently posted about the apostrophe crime wave that seems to be sweeping our nation: Apostrophe Crime Wave
He beat me to the punch here. [...]
