So you know how, when you have to go through Customs, even if you aren’t smuggling anything you get all freaked out and start to wonder, “Hey! Maybe I DO have a condom full of cocaine in my lower intestinal tract”? Every single time we get a letter from the Canada Revenue Agency I lose…
Yes, folks, you too may purchase your very own boob juggling set! Includes 3 breasts for the true juggling experience!* I think that I may have acquired a new audience for my blog. Teenaged boys. Any post that I have with the word boobs in the title ends up with ridiculously more page views. My…
I used to be really bendy when I was younger. (Steady folks.) Comes of being a gymnast. I was incredibly flexible. (STEADY…) Which is great when most of what you do in sport is bend in half backwards, run, skip and bounce. Trouble is, all those extra-stretchy ligaments? After years and years of stretching? They…
David and I are doing laundry at my parents’ place. It’s such a lovely day that we decide that we’re going to hang the clothes on the line to dry. After about 5 mintues, from within the house, I hear shrieks from my female relatives. My mother, Granny, Gran and Aunt Bea are all in…
I trip. I fall. I run into things. Have done since I was wee. I could make falling up the stairs an Olympic sport. My Mom calling the Doctor’s office, “But it won’t stop bleeding!!” “I’m sorry Ma’am, unless it’s mostly severed, it’ll have to heal by itself.” “But there’s so much blood!” “Ma’am, unless…
WARNING: This post is about… ahem… grown up toys The Hitachi Magic Wand (insert angels’ chorus) Several years ago, David got me a present. The cadillac of ‘personal massagers.’ Variations on this design have been used in adult entertainment since the 70s. If you’ve seen an adult film, you’ve seen this toy in use. …
Edith Vonnegut’s Sunblock I can burn after 2.5 minutes of sun exposure. This is not hyperbole. The sun in 2013 is different than when I was a kid. Sure I used to burn if I went completely without sunblock, but it wasn’t in 2.5 minutes, I can tell you that. I lived in California for…
I have friends who don’t share with their kids. They don’t want their kids to know that they used to smoke up outside the back entrance of their high school around the dumpsters. They don’t talk about pregnancy scares. They omit the drinking an entire mickey of tequila before heading to a dance and then…
One of my absolute favourite things in the entire world is movie theatre popcorn. With extra butter salt. It’s pretty much like crack to me. Our local theatre has a shaker of butter salt that they leave out for the patrons. I shake it on and delight in my sodium intake. Having popcorn at the…
I’m not a ‘half-measures’ kind of gal. If I’m doing something, it’s usually at full tilt. I’m very ‘event oriented.’ I go on a blitz right up until an event starts. One year for Rissa’s birthday party, my Mom couldn’t believe that I was sewing slipcovers for the our patio cushions 5 minutes before arrival…
