I was going to try and write a Valentines’s Day post but time ran out and I never finished. Plus I wasn’t sure where I was going when I started: It is here again. That day that single people despise, husbands forget, and lovers indulge. I am pessimistic about love most of the… …more
Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, and everything in between. It’s been a while since the last time I wrote anything. I really didn’t mean for the last post of the year to be about writer’s block and a really bad movie, it just kinda happened that way. Writer’s block will do that to you… …more
Being a receptionist is not an easy task, although many people like to think it is, they only answer the phone, they only sit on their ass’ all day well I’ll tell you this – it’s not for everyone because it’s not as easy as we professionals make it look. I can handle all the… […]

Is a Christmas carol? I can’t believe it – Halloween hasn’t even come and gone and the retail sector is already setting up Christmas if it hasn’t already finished. It looks like Christmas threw up all over the front end of the store I work at but that’s not even the worst of it –… […]
