Clothes make the woman.

Huh. I bought 3 skirts, a top that I’m going to pretend is a dress, and a pair of underwear. The most expensive thing of the batch? Yep, the underwear. I finally understand how Bridget Jones feels. I COULD wear the teeny tiny knickers, but I tend to look less like lumpy sausage jello if [...]

Well, dang.

I’ve put on 5lbs and my skin has gone all to hell. Would like the stress to stop now, kthx. Normality, please? I’m pretty sure the 5lbs is because I’m not walking NEARLY as much as I did in the city. For one, Justice can be exercised a lot easier by running around in the [...]

You’re welcome.

You should be thanking me a whole lot. I just did you all a MAJOR favor. Took one for the team, you might say. I tried Starbuck’s new “Honey Latte”. My suggestion? Don’t. Don’t get me wrong, I’m a major fan of the honey. I love it in my tea. I love it on toast. [...]

Ko-what now? Kolachy!

One benefit to this whole “too many doctors appointments” thing is that I get to try some different food places. I’m a little tired of the standard Quiznos/McDonalds/A&W/Subway/Pizza options that I have at work, so stopping by Fatburger or even a sushi place is a nice treat. Yesterday, I discovered the most awesome little fast [...]

tired of doctors appointments.

Warning: This is about girl parts and things that go into girl parts. If you’re not into reading about girl parts… well, get over it. Or go somewhere else. Whatever tickles your fancy. So, my IUD (ie, my subscription to team no babies) “expired” last fall. But, I was in Africa, and ignored said expiration. [...]

I can buy lots of space!

I’ve got a $10,000 zim note at home. With that, I can buy lots of space on this page! How depressing is that? Current black market exchange rate: $20,000,000 ZIM to $1 USD. Black market exchange when I left: $320,000 ZIM to $1 USD. Official exchange rate: $33,000 ZIM to $1 USD. …yeah. Wow.

wibble.

I no longer care that I have a cold. Because I also have really awesome cold & sinus medication. This has the result of making me high as a kite. Life is good. Hi! I’m Donna! I like things that go beep!

Blast from the Past: Surprise Anal!

I wrote this out a few years ago for a contest that Tanya ran a while back — and that I won. I was mentioning it to someone else recently and realized … heck, I should probably just post it here. Amusing side note: I couldn’t remember any good keywords to search on this, and [...]

Fuck. Fuck fuck fuck.

I’m getting a cold. Woke up this morning feeling fine. Around 10ish or so, felt a bit sniffly & off. Thought perhaps spring allergies were coming early. By noon, nope, we’re in full blown cold mode. Conveniently, I am a walking pharmacy, and had a box of cold & flu pills on my desk already. [...]

Inspiration

If you had some people coming from out of town and wanted to take them out for dinner first, then somewhere interesting for drinks after… where would you take them? Edit: Medium price range. I’ve blown far too much money on moving & vets & prescriptions & such lately, I’d like to be in the [...]
