Liza enjoyed universal respect because she was a good woman and raised good children.She could hold her head up anywhere. Her husband and her children and her grandchildren respected her. There was a hard-nail strength in her, a lack of any compromise, a rightness in the face of all opposing wrongness, which made you hold her in a kind of awe but not in warmth.
Liza hated alcoholic liquors with...

Apparently Facebook is the best way to announce to everyone that your brother has just died, BEFORE THE REST OF YOUR FAMILY HAS BEEN TOLD. Or maybe this is true for just for my step-sister.
In either case, I guess my step-brother has passed away 3 days before Christmas. Fuck fuck fuck. Fuck.

I’ve been trying to upgrade my phone to ios 4 for the past four hours. FOUR HOURS. Something is clearly wrong. I’m going to lose it soon. Not just because I can’t use my phone and it’s getting cold… so. cold.
I need a nerd!
Did you ever get it to work? How long did it take? I am having the same problem- it’s been an hour and I only have 3 green squares. Hmph.

Otto: Look, you obviously don't know anything about intelligence work, lady. It's an X-K-Red-27 technique.
Wendy: My father was in the Secret Service, Mr. Manfredjinsinjin, and I know perfectly well that you don't keep the general public informed when you are "debriefing KGB defectors in a safe house."

ARB FISH!! Favorite. Movie. Ever.
Otto: Oh you don't, huh?
Wendy: Not unless you're congenitally insane or irretrievably stupid, no.

I’m not sure when it happened, but somewhere I lost my sense of humor. I tried for a while to blame it on other things, but perhaps what made me amusing to others was my boiling rage or suffocating depression. Meds have knocked those out of me, for the most part. But they seem to have also made me dull. I might have to give up trying. It’s starting to crush my spirit when I...

I'm not smart enough for this.

My 7 year old wants to know what a dimension (or parallel universe) is.
Last week, my 4yo asked for the definition of a sentence. Also, why we need to wear underwear.
As an admittedly horrible parent, I typically try to divert and distract in hopes that they will forget their questions. I don’t know how to answer in kid-friendly terms. I can’t wait until I can tell them to...

How shitty is it that my 4 and 7 year old children now find it necessary to burst in on me in the bathroom to make sure I’m not sobbing in the fetal position again? Yeah. That’s what I thought.
I’m confused about “liking” this. No, I don’t like this. If I say I like it, I can’t shake the feeling that I am expressing joy at your sorrow. But maybe...

Whenever I go to make a mildly sexual joke on Twitter, I remember that my step-mother follows me. She even sends me messages on Facebook telling me how funny I am. I’m a grown up, dammit! If I want to talk about butt plugs and ball gags, I can do it without recrim…. aww dammit. Who the hell am I kidding? Anyone want to read 140 characters or less on bunny slippers? Again?
