  • Sexy Canning = Botulism

    Sexy Canning = Botulism

    Mr. VS and I were quite domesticated (like badly behaved pets) this fall and we tried some canning from the bounty of the land, i.e. our garden. BTW…we totally have a farm or something minus any animals except cats – cat farm? Our farm has no name currently but it could be called Poison Ivy…

  • Forget the Lifetime Failure Tally: Look Ahead

    Forget the Lifetime Failure Tally: Look Ahead

    I’ve now officially (you heard it here) been informed, through an article online that I cannot find again (did it really exist??) that I should be looking toward the future and not at the past. Mr. VS also recently told me that millionaires and highly successful people refuse to see failure and instead are always…

  • My Body is a Polluted Bombed Out Wasteland

    My Body is a Polluted Bombed Out Wasteland

    So as you might know, I’ve been on meds (Zoloft for anxiety/panic attacks) for about a year and a half.  Prior to this  med-circus I’m partaking in now, I had been off meds for 3.5 years.  And before that I was on them for about 8 years and prior to that I was medication free…

  • Broken, The Internet Is

    Broken, The Internet Is

    So there are some people out there that think they are going to break the internet with their ass. These ‘people’ shall remain nameless since I can’t stand to toot their horn more than it has already been tooted by everyone else on the planet. However, I do have a few things to say on…

  • A Case of “the Uglies” with Mincing and Ogling

    A Case of “the Uglies” with Mincing and Ogling

    Yesterday I had a mean case of the uglies.  It’s sort of like the “mondays” but it’s the uglies instead.  I don’t mean, I was ugly, as in I was horrible to be around or my mood was hideous or anything like that.  What I mean is that I felt…hideous, physically.  Yes,  yesterday I was…

  • Unfortunate Styling: The Skinny Jean

    Unfortunate Styling: The Skinny Jean

    People the world over have fallen hard for the skinny jean trend (Jean or jeans, plural or not? Who the hell knows?). For those not in the know or who love ridiculous and exaggerated descriptions, a skinny jean is a jean that is skin tight, not unlike the notorious and nefarious pajama jean (see reference…

  • Anxiety & Career: Yup, I’m Angry, Frustrated, Resentful and Unfulfilled

    Anxiety & Career: Yup, I’m Angry, Frustrated, Resentful and Unfulfilled

    If you’ve ever suffered from any sort of anxiety disorder, you’ll get me when I say that anxiety makes me really angry. It’s not because anxiety in itself sucks, which it does, a lot, it’s more about how much it drops bombs on your life, your life goals, your happiness and your self-esteem. You can’t…

  • Did you Capture your Moments Today?

    Did you Capture your Moments Today?

    If you didn’t capture ALL your “special” moments today on social media, they’ll be LOST FOREVER!! CAPTURE THEM NOW!!! CAPTURE THEM NOW OR LIVE A SHITTY MEANINGLESS MOMENTLESS LIFE!! I just read an article on Slate about “Moments.”  “Moments” (I’ve deemed they should be in quotes) are supposedly any special event or happening, really any…

  • A Smexy Guest Post!

    I turn around as if I didn’t just touch him with my eyes, as if I didn’t get intimate with him and I dance. I dance as if he’s watching, which I know he is and I let the alcohol set me free within the music. I feel it, inside me, running along my nerves,…

  • Let’s Play Blog Roulette!

    Let’s Play Blog Roulette!

    So I was feeling frustrated. I wanted to find great writing in Blog Land.  I wanted to stumble upon something amazing!  And I kept searching through the reader and there was nothing that was jumping out at me.  Nothing!  So then I thought, I wish there was a blog that featured Guest Blogging opportunities ALL…

  • Blank Page, White and Clean

    Blank Page, White and Clean

    Blank sheet.  The paper white and clean, without smudge or mark, without thought or emotion. I want to dirty it. I want to fuel it with my dark side and then light it on fire.  Watch it burn and flame into a twisting ember that turns to ash. I want to extinguish it, put out…

    You guys, I have a confession to make:  The girl who stands before you, or wait…sits before you…types before you, the girl clacking on the keyboard really fast, no still not right, the girl who is hiding behind the computer monitor, yeah her, she is a blog addict.  This is my brain on blog.  It’s…

  • Those Notes, a Single Voice, Speaking

    Those Notes, a Single Voice, Speaking

    I want to get to the place where inspiration flows.  It grabs my hand, pulling it across the page as fast as my thoughts can fly and I don’t want to stop it.  I want to let it run free and wild like a child introduced to a field, running under the blue sky, the…

    This is Why We’re All Overweight

    I’ve done a little thinking on the topic and I’ve come up with several reason why we’re all overweight and continue to gain the old lbs. The equation looks something like this: unhappiness + depression + meaninglessness + boredom + our modern culture…

    7 Guidelines for a Kickass Marriage

    Marriage can be a hard thing, which is why your choice of mate is pretty essential and the way you interact is key to your happiness. Mr. VS and I do pretty well, considering that he’s probably the MOST normal person on the planet and in addition to weird and crazy, I’m also annoying, sarcastic, ranty and annoying…

    I like it when my titles are so weird, you’re like…WTF just happened here? MY GOD! WHAT IS THIS? Well, this one is about how I’m a Cancer in the zodiac and according to Mr. VS I am also a recluse which happens to mesh quite nicely with me being a Cancer. Both really tie the…

    Preplanning for Disappointment with Defensive Pessimism

    I’ve become so accustomed to disappointment in my life that I’ve actually started pre-planning for disappointment. I’m assuming that almost everyone has disappointments, however I’m sure there are some people who experience more disappointments than others.  And I don’t believe that this is always due to the fact that some people have expectations that are unrealistic…

    This is Why We’re All Overweight

    I’ve done a little thinking on the topic and I’ve come up with several reason why we’re all overweight and continue to gain the old lbs. The equation looks something like this: unhappiness + depression + meaninglessness + boredom + our modern culture + our careers = fat. And here’s how I came to that…

  • Anxious, Can’t Sleep

    Anxious, Can’t Sleep

    One of the fun things about my life, much like Back to the Future, are the paradoxes I encounter daily. These paradoxes typically involve my anxiety causing all my worst fears to come true.  That’s right, my own anxiety, that I adopted as a child, causes the EXACT things to happen that I want to…
