My kids don't love me anymore.

But that's okay because now I don't feel guilty when I leave them home alone.


Oh, darn. The car has a flat tire again ...

Oh, good. I guess I'll just have to miss that PTA meeting.

My manuscript's been rejected for the 50th time.

The sky is falling.

Thank God I already have a terminal disease.

I'm about to be banned by Jenna.

and your 13 year old learned that you have limits, certain buttons which should not be pressed.

I had an argument tonight with my only sister

Brrr? I think Silver King got twisted with "Make Something New" Thread.

I had an argument tonight with my only sister, but she's my sister and we'll make peace.

I've been staying up late and playing on the computer.

For some reason, SK is always confused!

Getting used to new configuration is harder than hiding from conflagration.

My neighbor's boy gave me more ungrateful lip than a camel chewing on his rider's unprotected hip.

Same Psychosis...different day.
My knee hurts today and it's hard for me to walk......
so in a way it's lucky that the neighbor's wedding is off and he's giving the use of the pre-paid rented limo for the next ten hours.

My son has a new kitten that will only poo in the middle of his bedroom rug.

But you all fall in love with the kitten and don't even notice when you have to clean up the poop.

I still haven't heard back from the agent I submitted to a few months ago.

And it turns out the agent is a scam artist who would've fleeced me had I signed with him early on.

North Korea is going to get an international spanking soon for being kooky-nukey.

The nice thing about "sploot" is if it gets in your boots, you'll have an excuse to later place your feet in someone's warm lap, where the chill will be drawn and replaced by the heat of knowing hands on bare skin.

I haven't been fishing in a month, and the growing desire to be on the water is consuming to the point of distraction.

So it's a good thing the fish are just waiting to jump on your hook and you'll be at your daily limit in record time. So you can release some and just keep reeling them in.

Our tank turned over and we had a major kill off and just had to restock the tank completely so now there isn't anything of a fishable size.
