Les Miserables

Whelp. We made it to Friday. Barely. Another week nearly in the books at work and another batch of turds flung at my head by the monkeys. I know that’s such an assy thing to say, but… Remember...


My heart just feels so heavy this morning. I found out about the Vegas attack at around 5am and have just been so weary ever since. I’m at the office, but just not into anything this morning. I w...

Secrets, Revealed.

Well, dinner last night was pretty anticlimactic, so I’ll just come out and tell you… The Bulldog. [ducking for cover] I don’t know, you guys. I wanted to have dinner with him just to talk about ...

Hump Day, No Grump Day

Long time no write, eh? I’m in the office for a little less than an hour and then I have to spend allllll day with my staff, taking them offsite to visit retailers. I’m NOT looking forward to th...


I’ll make this quick because I don’t have a lot of time to write this down. We had a plan for dinner, but early in the morning yesterday, SMcQ sent a text telling me that there was an art gallery...

Champagne Campaign Redux

Remember my Champagne Campaign? It was my trip last year, almost to the day, to visit the Champagne region of France - to taste and learn about everything Champagne, to cook (and drink bubbles) ...

Crash and Hustle

The Car Crash Incident: Just when I thought I had everything taken care of, the car crash incident of a few entries back remains an issue. I’d already gone through the statements with insurance ...

Social and Not-So-Social Media

I’m so behind on reading everyone’s PB! Sorry about that. It’s hard to put in the time to write everything down AND then go read - especially when you’re trying to cut down on social media in yo...


You’ll never, ever believe what happened yesterday. Or maybe you will. The shortest possible story I can tell you is that I was driving home from work at about 6pm last night after a long moth...

Updates on Various

Today: It’s 9/11, and I’ll never forget. Never. I’m also thinking of all our friends in Florida as the storm moves on and they figure out what to clean up first… Weekend: Super mellow. I went t...

49 to 50

My turn now. I’m on the countdown to FIFTY! Yesterday was actually 50 days until 50, but I forgot about it until this morning. I really want to intensify my whole healthy living stuff during t...

Retrograde Over.

Whelp. Mercury Retrograde is finally over - what a whopper of a retrograde that was! So many encounters with the past. Yes, as Parliament noted on my previous entry, I did email “the manchild”. ...

50

The Bulldog turned 50 yesterday. Fifty was always a HUGE milestone to him. He talked about it a lot when we were hanging out. We haven’t communicated in two years. Still, I’ve thought about hi...

Week's End.

It felt like a relief to get all of that gossip out on paper yesterday. See the previous entry for the dirt. Like I said in the entry, I’m not sure if it is a set-up to see how quickly that sto...

Purely Gossip

You guys. I heard the absolute JUICIEST gossip in the office this morning, and I simply can’t let this leak because I think it’s a fucking set-up to see who gossips around here. I’m NOT going t...


Here I sit at my desk in the office, just waiting until it’s my turn to go give a presentation to one of our customers. They flew in this morning and our company is giving them the full-on tour ...

RAD: Troy

Here’s a guy who I’ve communicated with on Bumble for months now. I wasn’t super into him, clearly, or we would have met much sooner, but I also feel like I gotta keep my eyes and ears open, and ...

Steve McQueen is Alive!

Remember how I said I was a bit of a nervous chatterbox during our date? So I may have missed a couple of important facts during our conversation. I mean, there was live music - it was loud. Su...

Skin, Hair, Don't Care

At the office and just not into it today. I have definitely been productive, but it’s been a mixed bag: • Working on annual appraisals of my staff - they are catching me on a pretty good day, b...


• If menopause is fast approaching, how long will I have PMS? I’m going to google this right now… Ugh. Why did I do that? This looks bleak. • But I’m not sure if these blues are from the a...

RAD: Steve McQueen

Name: Steve McQueen Age: 56 Status: Divorced, but I’m not sure for how long. Not sure if it’s recent, but doesn’t really seem to be. Has 3 nearly-grown kids (youngest is 18, oldest is 21, two b...

Ugh. I Lost My Entry.

I just lost a HUGE entry. It was chock full of stuff about OD coming back and my mixed feelings about that and how everyone is revealing their identities and how I don’t want to because I do stu...

This Place is Magical

After I flew in from my business trip this week, I was zapped and in need of dinner and wanted to take myself out someplace because I knew there was nothing in my fridge but old moldy veggies (go...

Mercury in Retrograde!

Well, well, my little chickadees. What’s going on lately? Can you say Mercury is in retrograde? I sure can! Here are some of the examples: • Dinner last night with my friend Cindy was lovely ...


Procrastination Sunday! I was so hyper-productive yesterday doing personal stuff like cleaning the whole apartment from top to bottom and THEN going out to dinner with a friend and also going to...
