I don't hang clothes up after I wear them. I put them in the laundry to be washed, because I've worn them and I thought that's what you do with clothes that have been worn?

When I was 5, my sister (she was 15 at the time) told me that her skin was falling off, and I believed her. She had a bug bite and had put calamine lotion on it. It had dried and turned white, and she told me that it was her bone poking through her skin and it scared me to death!… Read More

Finally, a list that my name is on! And my grandma's first name, too! I heartily approve. :-) Lula is another pretty one you don't hear very much (my great-grandma's name). I'd like for a lot of these to make a comeback.

I had breast cancer a few years ago, and after my surgery, my remaining treatments were on Fridays. One week, my supervisor came and told me that since I was taking Friday off, she was going to take Monday off, like I was going to be out having fun on my day off. Okay, sure. You take… Read More

Grey's Anatomy has gone on way too long. I quit caring about it somewhere around 2014, but I kept watching it with my mom because there wasn't much else to watch. It's like they just give Meredith another sister or skip ahead several months or years if they just don't know what else… Read More

1. Unless you have actually had a mastectomy, don’t pretend you have anything but a purely academic knowledge of it just because you know someone who has had one. Those of us who have been there don’t want to hear all that you think you know. The support is a nice gesture, but it’s… Read More

I had the biggest crush on one of my friends in high school. For Valentine's Day, I decided to take a risk and send him a "secret admirer" flower. We were selling them for band, and all my friends agreed that it was a good idea. After the fact, he was trying to figure out who had… Read More
