The Tortured Poets Department. I know! And I’m sorry but Midnights was so much better! TTPD just sounds like so many things she’s done in the past and unfortunately, it was very -YAWN- to me. Not interesting, and doesn’t really stand out to me. I know many people praise it for the… Read More

I worked at a retail store. One of the assistant managers (a woman) made a suggestive remark to me when I told her that I (also a woman) was engaged to my now-husband. When I told her I was getting married the day after my 21st birthday, she said ‘Aw, so I can’t even get you drunk… Read More

Speeding. Actually, any kind of reckless driving. Speeding through yellow/red lights, not using a blinker when changing lanes, going well over the speed limit, cutting people off, road rage. Car accidents kill and cause injuries to so many people. I don’t care if you’re running late… Read More

Open-Concept living. Call me old-fashioned (or maybe introverted), but I’d rather have a compartmentalized home. I don’t like having one giant open space where you can’t tell where the living room stops and the dining room begins. I’d rather each room be a ROOM and have a definite… Read More

I had to put my cat of 15 years down. She declined really fast but wouldn’t let go, I couldn’t stand to see her struggling so I had to do it for her. It was the first time since I was 2 yrs old I’d not have any cats in the house. (So, at this point it would’ve been 21 yrs straight… Read More

Pretty much the entirety of the song ‘ME!’

Honestly- it annoyed me how many guys would seem interested in me, and we’d even be in a ‘talking stage’ for a while, but they’d literally just never make any moves. No asking out, no asking on dates, just talking. And sometimes even taking it slow with that! I ended up marrying an… Read More

My husband got hired for a company who were hiring him as a plant manager and liked that he had a background in safety because they didn’t have anyone in a safety position… and it showed. The only thing they had that was right was that all the exit signs were lit. Everything else… Read More
