Dirty Banana Pants

Once upon a time there was a girl named, me.  She was young….oh so young, and single.  One day while she was at work a co-workers husband called to say he found a stray kitten.  Awwww…..  He wanted to know if I would provide a home for the little kitten.  Me, being the cold-hearted bitch […]

As if being unemployed, the impending doom of financial ruin (not really, but it sounds really dramatic), wasn’t bad enough.  Try giving a ride home to someone who doesn’t know where they live.  Stew informs me that he has a customer coming by and that she’ll need a ride home.  I agree to do it […]

This evening I took my mother to see Elizabeth Edwards speak (she is such a freakin’ bad ass).  We entered the venue and noticed just how snazzy those democrats dress.  Mullets, stomachs hanging out, lycra….I’m a democrat, but have a feeling I may look more like a republican.  I don’t know which is worse.  We made […]

Here in the OKC we have a really cool little publication called The Gazette.  Each year they hold a “Best of OKC” contest.  Well, my dears, a few of my friends have made it to the final ballots.  It’s a big damned deal if you win your category. 
This year, you can vote online and you […]

Well, you know, I haven’t blogged because I’ve been in a bit of a daze.  Literally.  A little over a week ago I was at work, hadn’t seen my boss all week and didn’t really think too much about it, until…  Tuesday afternoon, I’m working away…and receive a phone call that I decided to take […]

My younger brother, Brian, decided to clean out his condo and came across a few gems.  A skateboard and the clapper.  The device that you plug your lamps into and clap your hands to turn them off and on.  Not being one to waste anything, he donated them to a monk at a Buddhist temple.
If […]

I am waiting to see if/when I ever feel as thought I fit in at my new job.  I’ve not really had this problem before…granted, Crap Ass sucked, but I could find my way there…but where I am now is a bit different.  The industry, not that there’s anything wrong with this industry, but it […]

Well, today was another pretty great day.  I have a job…I have responsibilities….and I’m necessary….at least I feel that way. 
Tonight I presented a couple of grants to my women’s club.  We raise money each year and give it away.  In between we bitch, snipe, and talk shit on each other, like all the other women […]

Last week, my Dad retired…..FINALLY.  I keep telling everyone he graduated, but no, he retired.  Oh glorious day.  He refused to let his coworkers throw a party for him and threatened to walk out if they did.  That’s just him, he doesn’t like any formality.  Just do it, get it over with, and let it […]

In case you didn’t have it marked on your calendar, I will tell you what today is: BLACK FRIDAY.  I get to work….early this morning and receive an instant message from someone located at another building which asked if I had heard any rumors?  Me?  Rumors?  Um, no, why?  Well, according to this source who […]
