Aaaa Oma’s
My own family will tell you, I dont deal well with crowds, particularly crowds and heat. This may come as a little bit of a shock as I tend to head to lots of places full of crowds and heat, Tokyo, Rome, Bangkok, etc. BUT, I am not I am expected to talk to talk … Continue reading
A Week Of Whirlwind Emotions
I have had one of THOSE weeks. I have been moody, cranky, and I have been working too much. In particular I have been worried about home as well. So I am here, getting itchy gypsy feet, and wanting to work less (MUCH LESS), and also wanting to find out what if anything is happening … Continue reading
The World Truly Is Populated By Idiots
Over on Becky’s blog again, and I read this post: Breastfeeding, Boobs and Nipples. Why is the world populated by idiots???? This time morons who actually feel that breastfeeding should not be allowed due to it being far too erotic. Don’t believe me, check out this idiot. The next person who tells me the need … Continue reading
Something Tells Me Student Loans Are Partially to Blame
This is a rather interesting article “Young People Rush Into Home Buying” on how young people in Britain are buying homes earlier than their grandparents and more importantly before they can actually really afford to do so. The article blames today’s consumer society that results in higher debt rates than any generation before us, and … Continue reading
Alix Consistently Proves She Rocks
Alix has proved she rocks yet again. For everyone out there sick of being told to “be something you can brag about no matter if it makes you happy or not, just try to make everyone else jealous and want to be you (who cares if you yourself actually want to be you)” or the … Continue reading
Now I Go To Bed
Tomorrow I work. I am not against work per say so much as against evil people calling to yell at me. Inbound call support is one of the many examples of capitalisms unlimited evil faucets. You call and yell at me because your cable company is a blood sucking cesspool, you love the fact you … Continue reading

Warning: Ranting
I don’t know why but for some reason I was thinking about Mel Gibson this morning. Maybe because of a Yahoo news story or the like. I don’t condone his actions at all, but it blows my mind how many people were shocked and awed by his behavior. We elevate celebrities to the status of … Continue reading
A Rambling Convoluted Exploration into What To Do With My Life aka Really of no Interest to Anyone but Sherrie and Maybe Her Mother :P
A day off is a God send. (And before you insert snarky comments about stating the obvious, I really can not convey the difference in my mood from last night to today). More importantly I can not adequately describe the difference in feelings from talking about my job last night, and talking about it today. … Continue reading
Oma’s Wise Words of Wisdom – The Turkish Version
If mothers are always right, than grandmothers may just as well be psychic. Even if they are not actually your grandmother. Just someone else’s you’ve decided to adopt… with or without her consent. (Because Oma Helga is one of the coolest women I have ever met, and I hope at 83 I still go to … Continue reading
Oma’s Wise Words of Wisdom – The Greek Version
Also known as the one I wrote before I tempered it. Kudos to Hans for suggesting I post both with their appropriate titles. If mothers are always right, than grandmothers may just as well be psychic. Even if they are not actually your grandmother. Just someone else’s you’ve decided to adopt… with or without her … Continue reading
The Bleeding Tea Rug Maneouvre
Or how to deal with Turkish men who think they are your boyfriend: dropkick him, on the way down shove apple tea still in its cup down his throat and THEN throat punch him to shatter the glass and leave him bleeding in a pile of rugs
