Our family has never been terribly huge on the celebration of holiday's, we never have huge dinners or elaborate traditions, birthdays are equally low key... now that I think about it our family just doesn't do the huge celebration thing. The most excited we get is when we pack the whole kit and caboodle up and go to Granny's to stuff ourselves like piglets. Anyway.

Dad has married the holiday guru. She is the queen of all things holiday, has decorations for every season, napkins, china, clothing, earrings... and toilet paper.

Yes. You read correctly, to celebrate the wonderfulness of my birthday, she brought home birthday toilet paper. Thus far, it has been mistaken for everthing from tissue paper to streamers. It is brightly colored with high concentrations of ink, which hopefully do not run. Upon exclaiming at the uniqueness of her present, she went on to inform us that she has halloween, thanksgiving, Christmas and valentines's toiletries.

Does anyone find this scary but me?

I think this is a definite sign of the times. Definintely.

This odd narrative is my life. I ended up in Pittsburgh, of all places--from the beach. I have no hobbies, other than cooking excessively and eating microwave popcorn. I enjoy shopping, the Food network, hiding the remote so the Food network cannot be turned off, find ethnic food stores and restaurants and reading voraciously. My life is decidedly pedestrian.


I worked in the car business where I was required to be ruthless and soul-less wench, which is when I started this project. Since then, I've kept it up because secretly, I've always wanted to join the military. Every male in my mother's family has joined and I quietly entertain thoughts of joining. I haven't yet and don't know if I ever will, but sending the troops cookies keeps me sane. it makes me think I still have a shred of human kindness left in my withering soul. it's a small way for me to salute the men and women who are brave enough to fight for freedom. And makes me feel like I'm contributing toward troop morale--even if I'm not. So if you want to help, send me addresses of troops you know stationed overseas. you may also contribute toward the cost of chocolate chips, but don't feel obligated, that link is here only by request.
