Judge away…

I talked about Dog Shaming in this post and have often wondered if people had to walk around with a sign saying what wrong they had done if less people would do the stupid and hurtful things they do? For some I would assume yes, others sadly it probably wouldn’t deter them in the least. While I am of course a HUGE Pinterest fan… other than the political b.s. that creeps in there as of late then number one thing on Pinterest I hate is this quote: “Go ahead. Judge me. Just remember to be perfect the rest of your life.” And I’ll tell you why I hate it…because the people that post it that I know in real life are the idiots who are being judged. Usually for pretty good reasons. But I don’t call that judging…I call that moron detection. So no worries…I’m not judging a single person. But I will say that my moron detector does go off a lot around certain people. And one does not need to be perfect just because someone else sucks as being a person. I don’t have to … [Read more...]

In case you haven't noticed I am sporting some new digs. There are a lot of new changes ahead for me in the coming months but this is the first one. I figured since I was going into my 7th year of blogging and my 40th year of life that I should probably change things up on the blog. Do a little less is more.

My awesome redesign or as I call it an make-under was done by a CCbP reader and blogger who I found out did this for a living. Everyone give a shout out to Pass the Sushi for new look! And of course thanks to the Picky Eater for having to coordinate all the back end stuff with her so that they could go live with the site. To honor the launch of the site I figured go with something simple yet incredibly yummy...and according to MDP very, very messy. There may or may not be random pieces of marshmallow fluff still being found. I call it a scavenger hunt for the … [Read more...]

I got mad skills…

There is nothing to make you feel more uncoordinated than playing video games with kids. I had an 8 year old desperately wanting to play Halo with me. I informed him that I was no good at playing Halo. That was putting it mildly. Being 8 an optimistic he didn’t seem to take me all that serious and assured me that he could do what others had not been able to before, he would teach me Halo. I was already down and out staring at my little pink Xbox controller (yes, mine is pink) while he quickly went over what each button did and then listed the exceptions, which there seemed to be many of. I think at this point I was mostly blinking when I was informed just follow my guy and I’ll tell you what to do. You think that would have been easy? Just follow his guy. Sure. Yeah, not so much. I couldn’t get my up and down right. I would move when I was supposed to be looking. And then the next thing you know I was somehow on fire. To which he was in awe that I was on fire since we … [Read more...]
