My week from Hell
(Warning: There is bugs in this post. Specifically ants. There’s also A LOT of cursing.) I have had a fucking week from hell and I’m just over it. All I want to do is lay down and fucking cry. I have no one to vent to so I hope you will allow me to share […]
How Disney and Marvel Ruined My Christmas
I ordered the Disney Infinity Marvel Super Heroes starter set from the Shop Marvel website for $39.99 on November 26th. Christmas gift for my guy. I add an Iron Man cell phone case as filler to get free shipping. A few days later, I also buy a couple extra figures on amazon during a sale. […]
Lego With a Side Order of Proselytization
Lego has a program called CUUSOO where fans can create and submit Lego build ideas and through a long and lengthy voting and vetting process, some of those fan-inspired creations can become actual Lego sets. Most recently, on August 1st, Lego released their much anticipated Back to the Future Lego DeLorean Time Machine. I am […]

A Lesson in Bureaucracy
The only thing worse then dealing with one postal service is dealing with two. I mailed an item to a custom in Canada back on February 26th. USPS.com shows it cleared Canadian customs on March 3rd. If you go the Canada Post website, you can see it made it as far as Edmonton on March […]
Awesome Customer Service
I have a Crock Pot. My Mom gave it to us many years back and it’s a damned useful thing to have. I don’t use it all the time but things I do tend to use it for I only make in that way. Such as a pot roast. The only way I cook pot […]
Daily Dose of Stupid
Backstory: I ran the dishwasher yesterday and noticed a big puddle on the kitchen floor. I think it’s leaking and being on the 3rd floor, that’s not especially good news for the apartment below us. So I emptied it but didn’t refill it; instead just piling my dirty dishes in the sink until I could […]
Dead Car Battery (With Help from Homer)
So my day started off like this: Because at 6:30am as Love is leaving for work, he calls me and says his car won’t start. He’s got to get to work (obviously) so he’s taking mine. Boo. I worry a little but go back to sleep. When I get up, I walk downstairs to the […]
Dreaming of a New Vacuum
I spent Monday afternoon partially disassembling my vacuum cleaner and trying to unclog the completely stuffed hose. It was messy, disgusting and absurd. The vacuum cleaner is like 2 years old. And it pretty much rarely, if ever, works anymore. It just gets completely and irrevocably clogged up. I get that we have two cats […]
Gifts with Wedding Registry
I’ve always loved freebies. I’m not as obsessive about it as some people but I take time each day to check out a couple freebie/deal boards to keep an eye out for free products or samples or other neat ways of getting items free or extremely cheap. And getting engaged at Christmas opened me up […]
Quick Week’s Recap (So Far)
Brief overview of this week’s events… Monday – Hematologist Hematologist appointment. Got there and told the receptionist as I was signing in that I needed to speak to someone in billing to sort out my insurance billing issue (they’re billing me out of network resulting in 100% due instead of in-network and 20% due.) I […]
