Dirty Banana Pants

I don’t know what it is, but the newscasters here try their damnedest to link something notable to Oklahoma City.  No matter how significant it is.  For example, several years ago a horrible crime took place in Kansas or Missouri.  The story was all over the national news, everyone was shocked.  Our newscasters lead in their […]

Over the weekend I joined Facebook to hook up with some childhood friends, but mostly to find people that I hated to see if they are now fat and miserable.  This is the part where I use my powers for evil….and man, does it feel good!
There was one particular girl who was just a completely […]

Stew and I made a quick trip to Denver over the weekend to attend a friend’s engagement party.  I didn’t tell her I was coming and totally freaked her out.  It was rad! (that’s what they say in Denver).
When we initially arrived in Denver, Stew and I ate lunch, got ready and then picked up […]

Saturday was my niece Lauren’s birthday.  She had her party at a dreadful place called “Sweet ‘n Sassy”.  It is a salon….and I use that term loosely, for tween girls filled with loads of crap for you buy for your children.  The birthday party would consist of each of the girls dressing up in an […]

Last Wednesday, I called my friend Ramona and left a message on her voicemail:
Me: Hey Ramona!  In exactly one month you will be Mrs. Jones!  Ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!!
And I hung up.  She left me a voicemail a few hours later:
Ramona: Hey Christy.  Funny message.  By the way, I think the wedding is […]

The last session I was going to have the inside of my arm lasered and had been trying […]

July 3, 2008, my grandmother, Norma, the mother of my mother passed away.  I wasn’t close with her, in fact, I hadn’t spoken to her in over 10 years.  She wasn’t known for her kindness, at least not to her immediate family, and she wasn’t known for her tact.  She was from Mississippi and spoke […]

I have this thing about going through the motions.  Where you are nice and courteous for the sake of…I don’t know what.  For the sake of others feelings, I guess.  But, as I’ve grown older, I’ve tried very hard not to tell someone I love them, if I don’t.  If I say I am going […]

The school where Jake and Shelby spend each day has had a note posted on their front door announcing a “parade” that will take place today at 9am.  I’m not really clear on if parents are supposed to go….I didn’t.  I feel it only necessary to park 10 miles away, walk several blocks in the […]
