It’s officially a condition. What, you ask? My desire to reach across the table and commit acts of violence upon whoever is making sounds when they eat. And I’m not even talking about the excessively noisy or unmannerly diner. I’m talking about ANY eating sounds, including, but not limited to, slurping, chewing, licking, smacking, crunching [...]

I am actually surprised it’s so low!
Peace on earth?
25Jul07I took a road trip yesterday to a small town about an hour from London to see a friend that I haven’t seen in years. It was an absolutely beautiful drive. I really enjoyed myself and actually slowed down to take in the tree-lined highways through sleepy towns, rolling hills and corn fields. Apparently corn [...]
Formatting Shmormatting!
23Jul07Can I just say that I have had it up to here with the retarded formatting issues with Live Journal? I swear it all looks pretty when I write it and insert the pics. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong. Even when I try to edit it after it comes out all goofy I [...]
Well it has been a busy couple of weeks here in Poisonville. My parents have been visiting and that has been a fabulous distraction for myself and the kids. Of course my kids think that the grandparents visit for the exclusive purpose of entertaining them and I can’t say that I do much to discourage [...]

Read: We have been drinking poisonous water for the past almost three months. I spent some time freaking out. Then I fire-bombed my landlord’s [...]
I Believe
19Jul07I believe…
…that it is important to be polite.
…that sometimes it is more important to stand up for yourself.
…in the divine
…that we can know very little about the nature of the divine.
…in coffee breaks.
…that life is sacred.
…in loyalty, honesty and compassion.
…that kids should always be told the truth. At least as much of it as is [...]
Rage against the LJ
18Jul07I just spent like an hour trying to format that last post and all the pictures because it looked so nice before I posted it but then the formatting went to hell as soon as I hit “post to journal”. And I tried and tried to figure out how to make it work but it [...]
