I’m Judging You and Sometimes I’m Right

Solitary Mama — Wed, 28 Sep 2011 00:36:44 +0000

I’m not particularly judgmental. I try not to be. I feel like I am temporarily allowed to judge since the GBE 2 prompt this week is “judgment” which I interpret as meaning “do what you want.”

The Devil is the Mayor of Lonely Town. Get Out While You Can.

I was going to vlog for my 28th 38th birthday yesterday, but last night I found myself sitting on my bed looking like a psychopathic-sitting-on-a-bed-lady. Not a good picture for a vlog. Don’t get me wrong, 38 is probably going to be just as amazing as 0-37, but I found myself in a place I [...]

Dear Tooth Fairy

Dear tooth fairy,

I lost one of my teeth today and I dropped it in the seat belt thing and I can’t get it out. Can I still have some money?

Dear <daughter’s name>

I didn’t have any cash on me anyway because I only carry a debit card [...]

True Story in 100 Words: Small Towns Don’t Want Your Funny Money Fool.

Solitary Mama — Tue, 05 Jul 2011 05:35:06 +0000

When I first moved here, I worked for a telemarketing company that paid bonuses in silver dollars.

One evening I carried a handful of bonuses to the Rural Small Town convenience store to purchase a pizza and probably Doritos and the teenage clerk tells me…

“We don’t accept foreign money,” as if I ended up [...]

Howdy Doody Was Totally Creepy

Solitary Mama — Sun, 10 Apr 2011 04:15:52 +0000

Usually, people are afraid of something because of a bad experience. Scared of the dark? Maybe someone jumped out and scared the hell out of you once. Scared of heights? Maybe you fell off something really high at one time.

I just realized that doesn’t make sense. I don’t like heights and I’ve never fallen [...]

Everything You Wanted to Know About Ear Wax and Some Stuff You Didn’t

Solitary Mama — Wed, 06 Apr 2011 23:53:02 +0000

I knew a girl that ate her ear wax. And no she wasn’t a little kid. Ear wax is like ear dirt, right? There has to be some reason eating ear wax is unhealthy.

I remember seeing her engage in this habit after a night of clubbing. We would get a sammy (of probably pickle [...]

The Letter A

Solitary Mama — Fri, 01 Apr 2011 05:18:30 +0000

Day one of the A to Z Blogging Challenge and to tell you the truth the only letter “A” word I could think of was Asshole. I’m not angry at anyone and I’m not thinking of any particular person. I have no idea why it kept popping into my head, except that I think it’s [...]

There Are Worse Moms Than You and I’m Going to Tell You Who They Are

Solitary Mama — Wed, 02 Mar 2011 06:39:17 +0000

Well, after being screamed at by a lady for turning around in her driveway this morning, I realized we all have days like these where it seems like we’re not the Greatest Mom in the World. We do, right?

Rewind. It isn’t because I used someone’s driveway to turn around that I’m less than the [...]

Facebook Owes Me a Friend. A Hot One.

Solitary Mama — Wed, 15 Sep 2010 06:09:53 +0000

I wrote up a quick article on How to Spot a Fake Facebook Friend just so I could link it to here (I never write for AC anymore, unless I have something completely useless to say, so I suggest you check it out).

Before I proceed I should acknowledge that this blog post is [...]
