Milestone #1 (Mine, Not Josie’s)
What is the opposite of a gym rat? Whatever it it is, I’m that. I used to be so uncomfortable that I could barely even force myself to go without massive stress and fear, even tears sometimes. I apparently look vaguely athletic, but psychologically, I’m the kid who was afraid of the ball and always [...]

Yikes!
Ok, I really did think that I had no embarassing clothing pictures, because my taste in clothing is generally too conservative and boring to provide much hilarity. I was wrong. Can you imagine a less flattering dress? Wide shiny band at the waist, giant bubble to make your hips, butt, and legs look big, strange [...]

Seriously?
Have you seen the news story about the Ohio woman arrested for child endangerment, because she was driving, breast feeding, and talking on her cell phone at the same time? Normally, I try not to be too judgmental about other moms, but I can’t seem to stop myself from making an exception here. ARE YOU [...]
