    Alright, people (and Missy, who helped me with the last one), I am nearing the end of Prep and I need a new book waiting in the wing the moment I am done with it. (It’s either that or I’ll watch even more television and we can’t have that.) I’m really enjoying Prep. Prior that,…

    A self-portrait from me to you. (It about sums up how I have been feeling lately.) Also, I started a new series. Does two make a series? Oh, yeah, and I’m a really exciting person. Edited to add: I went ahead and started a group called Shit in My Fridge. Join us if you dare.

    I used to smoke. I smoked for a really long time. When I smoked I told people I enjoyed smoking. I guess to a certain degree that was true in so much as while I was smoking a cigarette I enjoyed it. But as soon as I finished one and the nasty taste was all…

    I received an email from my sister-in-law the other day. It read: “Just so you know, you get what you pay for with babysitting. See attached photo…” I haven’t laughed that hard in quite some time. I love my parents.

    I woke up at 10:00 AM today. I’m a little shocked by this feat. Lately, I haven’t been able to sleep much at all. I headed to the gym after prying myself out of bed. I did 30 minutes worth of cardio and then hit the mats to do some stretching. After that, I headed…

    I’m not even sure what to say about this story out of Indiana. “Police said they traced the toddler to an apartment at a nearby complex, where they found his mother, Nancy Dyer asleep in a filthy apartment and his 2-year-old sister eating spaghetti off the floor.”

    I just spent about an hour skimming through an entire year’s worth of writing on mihow.com. And I have to be honest; I talk a lot and say very little. For those of you who stuck around, I’m proud of you. I feel like I owe you some presents. This exercise has taught me a…

    (I’m late on this one but who cares.) A little over a month ago, a buzz hit the Internet. People began talking about the new issue of JPG Magazine. Tobyjoe and I read reports about how amazing it looked but we had yet to seen one in person. On December 4th, I received an email…

    I settled in for a nap at around 7 PM last night. At around 7:30 PM I woke up to the shrill sound of our bell ringing. Our buzzer is so loud, so startling, it’s been known to force turds from our cats. Most people who regularly visit us know that the bell is loud…

    My friend Brad tells me that there are two roles during a conversation. He tells me this when I fess up to how bad of a listener I can be. “Don’t worry, Michele.” He says. “No one listens. When people engage in a conversation there is only speaking and waiting to speak.” I haven’t had…
