Declaring 2017 to be the Year of the Woman, I googled “Men doing good things for women” to get examples of equality and understanding. Instead, the first page offered topics like “10 things men LOVE women to do during hot sex” and “8 things men wished women knew about sex.” Heavy sigh. This only re-emphasizes howContinue reading “2017: Year of the Woman”

Hell to the Chief
It’s inevitable. In 10 days, a gold and diamond encrusted ShitMobile will usher the new First Family into the White House. Barring a Colorado-sized asteroid hitting the planet, chances are the new Commander in Chief will kick off the next four years of tyranny. . . um, I mean . . . what do IContinue reading “Hell to the Chief”
Irreplaceable: Carrie Fisher
A piece of my heart died on Tuesday when I heard Carrie Fisher had passed away. She changed my childhood and rewrote what it meant to be a powerful woman. When I was a young girl, Princess Leia was everything I wanted to be. Brassy and brave, and full of swagga while carrying a blaster andContinue reading “Irreplaceable: Carrie Fisher”
An Open Letter to Santa 2016
Dear Santa, I fear we’ve miscommunicated. I thought we agreed there were certain people on your list who would NOT be given the gift of the United States presidency. Maybe when I specifically asked you to “Give him coal” you heard, “Let’s bring back coal.” Perhaps when I said, “Protect women’s rights” you were certainContinue reading “An Open Letter to Santa 2016”
Elf on the Shelf: The Interview
Following a marketing strategy of epic proportions, Elf on the Shelf (EOTS) has become a holiday tradition. The concept? EOTS spies on children, then flies to the North Pole each night between Thanksgiving and Christmas to give Santa a full report on the children’s behavior. Every morning he returns to the home and hides soContinue reading “Elf on the Shelf: The Interview”
American Horror Story
It’s finally here: Election Day 2016. The day dawned like any normal Tuesday, which means it sucked from the get-go. Of course it’s gone steadily downhill. We’ve endured it all. Hillary’s the Antichrist. Secretary Clinton with her emails and evil foundation with world leaders in her pocket; with her disingenuous smile and faux love for all mankind.Continue reading “American Horror Story”
Things I’m Not Going to Do Today
People are obsessed with to-do lists. I don’t get it. Why start your day with an entire page of things you MUST get done before your head can hit the pillow at night? Sounds like a recipe for madness. Here’s what I do instead: I make a list of things I refuse to do soContinue reading “Things I’m Not Going to Do Today”
Here’s Why I Vote
Choosing a presidential candidate this election is equivalent to deciding which type of knife you want to stab into your eyeball. As South Park creators so eloquently put it, we’re choosing between a “Big Douche and a Turd Sandwich”. In Utah, where most of our representatives lean white and right, it’s frustrating to see the sameContinue reading “Here’s Why I Vote”
The Truth is Out There
At the risk of losing the respect of 89 percent of the human race, I have to admit my guilty pleasure: watching Ancient Aliens. It’s so amazingly serious, with its deadpan narration and “authentic” illustrations, that you can’t help but step inside its lunacy. According to the show, pretty much everything on this planet has been createdContinue reading “The Truth is Out There”
Deep Thoughts From the 2016 Summer Olympic Games
Besides the super-human performances, the world-record-breaking finishes and the crazy intense tracking of mosquitos and water in Rio de Janeiro at the Summer Olympics, I found myself asking the following questions. (At least until my husband told me to stop talking and just watch, for @#$@’s sake. Geesh.) (Unofficial mascot of the Summer Games in Rio.)Continue reading “Deep Thoughts From the 2016 Summer Olympic Games”
