Every now and then, Lance will say something that gives me pause. He often says he knows me better than I know myself, and I’m always thinking, yeah right, no one knows all the convoluted workings of my mind. But I sometimes think maybe he does.
The other day, I had the pleasure of going to [...]

How to say my name without making me go crazy
When my mother selected “Kearsie” as my name, I think she was on crack.
Just kidding, but dang. Can’t a girl catch a break?
I have one of those names that no one can pronounce. Or spell. Or find on a mug or a key chain or a magnet. Nope. My name is one of those bizarre [...]

The PMS fog
Or the post better known as “Blog titles to make men run away”.
I’m not picky.
Or perhaps you menfolk are curious and are thinking to yourselves, hmm, this may be the post that clears up a few questions I have about my mom/sister/second cousin twice removed/girlfriend/wife/sister-in-law/co-worker/weird neighbor lady.
Well then stick around, menfolk, and I shall school you [...]

Deep breaths
I am having a panic attack.
Well, I don’t know if I’m actually having a panic attack, because I’ve never had a real panic attack so I have nothing to compare this to.
I just submitted three of my posts to a humor contest. I have this girl to blame. She made me do [...]

I am in deep smit
Ode to my wet-to-dry flat iron:
Oh, how I love thee.
Your black enamel casing quietly hides your power.
When I unlock your locking mechanism.
I am transported to a whole new world of heat therapy.
With your three settings, high being my favorite,
Your level of heat transforms my wet locks to dry tresses.
It’s not your fault I haven’t had a [...]

My Awful Discovery
Ya’ll, I found something. It’s not pretty. It’s extremely traumatic. It’s worse than an ingrown toenail. Worse than finding a pimple in a bizarre place. Worse than a bad hair day or life.
I.have.sideburns.
I was putting on makeup the other day, when I happened to do that tilt-face-side-to-side thing. (I have no idea why I was [...]

Too bad he couldn’t take the handcuffs home
Wow, have we had the craziest weekend. It’s not everyday you see your husband handcuffed and put into the backseat of a police car.
So, this last weekend, we went to see some old friends in Tennessee. They were remnants from our “flock” a year ago, and it was really awesome to visit with them. Saturday [...]

I shall rap for you today

Me + rap + fashion = totally whacked out situation.
I would like to say thank you to Jenny Bunny for inspiring this post with her [...]

New Jeans
I am giddy with joy as I sit here today, writing to all you wonderful people who read these words.
See, here’s what happened. We made plans to go on a road trip this weekend to visit some friends we haven’t seen in over a year. I, as a girl with a big fat girly mind, immediately thought: [...]
