  • 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…

  • How To Tell If You’re Crazy

    I’m featured today over on The Official How To Blog.  I highly recommend you follow because it’s a funny funny blog, or submit something if you have a funny how-to post.  I tried to bring the humor to being mentally unstable AKA crazy.  Check me out… How To Tell If You’re Crazy. via How To…

  • Indies Helping Indies

    The network of Indie Authors out there is pretty damn cool.  I recently stumbled upon Richard Stephenson’s site Collapse which is geared toward his novel of the same title.  He also just happens to offer free promotion on his site to other indie authors and he’s featuring Angst now.  I was pretty amazed when I…

  • Catching up with My Indie Sisters

    I’m currently reading two novels at the moment as I have serious multitasking skills.  I’m reading Julie Presley’s Stones of Remembrance and Belinda Williams’ Radiant.  Both are great reads, both are well written and both are excellent examples of their genre and yeah, both are indie authors who might not have been published if they…

  • Like Me, Oh Please Like Me!

    Ok we’re getting a little desperate around these parts lately in the “tone” of our posts.  Note to self, stop being disgusting!  haha. I kid!  I want you guys to like my new Facebook page!  I need 30 likes before I can pick my own url etc, so get over there and help a sister…

  • Winner! And My V-Day Poem Explained!

    So, amazingly, somehow, don’t ask me how, the winner of my raffle is Jocelyn Dex!  I swear to you guys on everything I hold dear that I didn’t rig this thing!  I just hit the button for Rafflecopter to let me know who the winner was and her name literally popped up.  So, congrats Jocelyn! …

  • It’s a Cruel Cruel WordPress World!

    I’ve been blogging for about 2 1/2 months now, not saying much I know, however I still haven’t really figured out how this works.  I feel like sometimes I put something out there and I get a great response, other times I can hear crickets chirping it’s so quiet.  There doesn’t seem to be a…

  • Imagine a Sexy Raging Frat Party

    Imagine a Sexy Raging Frat Party

    Sexy, scandalous and…crazy.  Let me take you on a journey in your imagination: Imagine a raging Halloween party at a dirty frat. Imagine a small college party at an apartment just off campus, smoke billowing through the air from a glass pipe as you inhale and exhale, coughing, suddenly lightheaded and…free.  Imagine playing asshole with…

  • From the Business End of a Loaded Handgun

    From the Business End of a Loaded Handgun

    Hello All, in honor of my book being available for purchase today on Amazon, here, I wanted to share this serious post about Suicide as this is one of the themes that is dealt with in my novel.  Now whatever you do, do not look up suicide on google images like I just did, there…

  • I’m Just a Day Away!

    Hi all, just a quick update.  I’m really excited because I’m very close to publishing my novel.  I’m doing a final reading now to catch any last formatting, grammatical or other errors and then I’m uploading my novel!  I can’t believe I’ve come this far.  Stay tuned and I’ll let you know when it’s finally…

  • This Season of USA is Lit!

    This Season of USA is Lit!

    These writers on this season of the USA are doing a bang up job keeping us on the edge of our seats! Let’s just hope they’re not like the writers for LOST! Buckle up for some existential rambling DREAD below! (Don’t worry, it’s…

  • The Happy Forgotten Place Where Plastic Lives: The Landfill

    The Happy Forgotten Place Where Plastic Lives: The Landfill

    Remember that place the so-called Landfill? I know you’re like…”What? No? What place? I don’t recall anything like that.” (All said while avoiding eye contact). Well, I’m here to point your attention in the direction of your local landfill, filled not with LAND…

  • This is Why We’re All Overweight

    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…

  • Stuck in a Style Year

    Stuck in a Style Year

    As you age, you may at some point notice that you are stuck in a style year.  It’ll creep up on you until suddenly you put the puzzle pieces together and realize with a moment of sheer embarrassed terror that you, who are of course, forever young, are officially stuck in a style year of…

  • Insta-Replay for Bloggers, Writers and Artists

    Insta-Replay for Bloggers, Writers and Artists

    I was watching the news this morning and they were doing a recap of high school football and they kept showing instant replays of all the amazing catches and long runs that the high school students were doing at their foose-ball games. There were even hometown heros and VIP’s and whatnot.  I thought to myself…it must be pretty snazzy…

  • The Evil Glowing Machine

    The Evil Glowing Machine

    The last few days I’ve been getting a headache at work while staring at my computer. This is getting really annoying. I’ve found that staring at the computer makes my eyes hurt because it’s glowing with an evil florescent light.  When I stop looking at the sparkly bright screen and start looking elsewhere at things…

    Satan’s Girlfriend: It’s Getting Fiery Up in Here

    I don’t know how many of you weak little humanoid types have noticed that it’s getting a bit fiery up in Earth’s grill. It’s summer, so yeah, it makes sense as far as the ubiquitous summer words: hot and grill are concerned, however have you noticed that there are dire predictions of despair involving wild…

  • Thieves with Ladders

    Thieves with Ladders

    I’ve always had a more than healthy dose of “stranger danger.” So locking doors is a favorite past time, as well as worrying, fruitlessly, about the “bad guys” and how surely they’re coming for me. Call me Negative Nancy, I’ll answer in the affirmative, call me Worrying Wendy, I’ll say, hey wassup? Call me Paranoid…

    Mental Gymnastics: Sarcasm Promotes Creativity

    I just heard the most amazing bit of news to come my way in quite a long time. This is a GAME CHANGER PEOPLE! The news: Sarcasm promotes creativity and is good for the office. BOO YA! What this means is that I am #winning at being an office team mate and #winning at creativity. What…
