Asleep Under My Desk: Miss Office 2009

The head of my company is in the office today for some major meetings with our Sales Directors. It?s kind of a big deal because she is only here two or three times a year. So I am pretty sure she doesn?t know my name, what department I work for, or if I even speak English. But she greeted me warmly when I almost ran her over in the mailroom today. This little interaction, make that a near collision, got me to thinking: How sad is it that after 2 + years at this company there are still people

The Soccer Mom Files: Dumbass Soccer Mom

What a day I had yesterday, folks. Not in a good way, either. I promise you, the life of a bad ass soccer mom can be a lot more stressful than you think. Let me take you back to yesterday afternoon.It was the first soccer practice since before Christmas. I was already in a bad mood because I hate to hang around with those soccer moms. Go figure! So, I obviously had to fill my pimp cup up to the brim with a little medicinal vodka this day. Most of the ladies know to back the hell off when they se

The Other Side of Normal: Patrick Swayze?

…so what’s the deal, is he still alive or what?

Last time I heard, he was still smokin’ cigarettes and battling some sort of unbattleable form of cancer.? Now I see he’s got a new show on TV where he fires rocket launchers at buildings, then presumably dances around with Jennifer Grey afterwords.? Or is it [...]

Any errors or misrepresentations are entirely their fault.Note 2: In assembling my list of extraterrestrial races, I have relied on Wikipedia?s ?List of Extraterrestrials in Fiction.? Of course, I could have constructed a list without Wikipedia?s help, based entirely on my own recollections.

The Blog of Bex: Crazy chicks are dangerous, yo.

Just when I was getting ready to have Lorena Bobbitt’s name permanently laminated on the “Craziest Wife EVER” trophy, I read the little ditty about an Australian lassie who saw her husband hug another woman.Did she ginsu his junk off, a la Bobbitt? No…she went a little pyro on us and doused his genitals with alcohol and then SET THEM ON FIRE.(Get your hot nuts…get your hot nuts here….)Apparently the fire in his crotch woke him up with a start and he leaped off the bed. This action knocked

Middle Age Mania: Focusing on the Positives…

Gas is still under $2 a gallon – I never paid more than $25 to fill my tank during the entire trip to OH and back. It’s such a relief.My husband is still a non-smoker! He spent 4 days with his chain smoking relatives and not only did he not smoke a single cig – he turned into the non-smoker who lectures the smokers on how if he can quit anyone can! :) I’m sure it annoyed them a bit but I LOVED it.I won $225 in a football pool and can really use the cash so this is good.I should have my sign-
