Snacks of Desperation
It's somewhere between 1 and 4 hours after dinner. I am sitting at the counter, writing. Minding my own business. And then it happens. Absolutely no warning (except for the fact that it happens every night). I'm starving, I know I haven't eaten in days hours, I am so desperate!

Grabbing her clothes; she was determined to find answers today. As she slipped on her jeans she stuck her hands in the pockets and found the little Hello Kitty eraser she'd always kept as good luck.

What?!! You Cancelled My Show?
So here I am on vacation thinking of making a vacation playlist, but feeling easily distracted. So I headed over to Stasha at Northwest Mommy to see what her Monday Listicles was going to be. Imagine my surprise when I saw that this week's list is going to be: Talk about being at … Continue reading What?!! You Cancelled My Show?
Beleza Tropical
It's 1990, I am dating a musician (what's new?), he's a drummer (no offense to drummers but drummer's egos, no thank you) he's dropped the drum kit and is playing "percussion".
