When did "responsibility" become a dirty word?
We should replace "In God We Trust" with "It's Not My Fault" on the money.

A pair of mockingbirds have decided to nest in a tree outside the bedroom window. They start their calls about 5 AM every morning and must have a repertoire of about 50 different birds. Some of the calls make it impossible to sleep. The chicks better fly the coop real soon or I’m going all Katniss Everdeen on them!
What drives me crazy is when I tell someone I'm a stay-at-home mom, and women (it's always women) ask me "What do you do all day?"
I used to get asked this question...I told them I picked my nose and played with toys. It really is an annoying question.What drives me crazy is when I tell someone I'm a stay-at-home mom, and women (it's always women) ask me "What do you do all day?"
Ha! I may be borrowing that comeback!
I am a stay at home mom?...Ididnotknow!!!

Better look around.
What's driving me crazy today: How much action can a writer cram into one sentence? "She balled her fists, steeling herself against the wall to meet the coming enemy, finally giving herself over to the anger that soon overwhelmed her with body-shaking anticipation."
I mean... how much crap can happen at once?
That's at least two sentences. Maybe three.

True, I checked. All tough, but sadly - he is just like Ken.
An order I placed on Amazon.com was canceled by the seller because the item was out of stock. Their policy is to refund within two business days so when I didn't receive my refund within the first week I contacted them. They said it was out of their hands--that Amazon was in charge of billing. I contacted Amazon and they said they don't process a charge until the item is shipped, which this never was, and that I should contact my bank and ask how long such charges are held before being refunded to the account. I emailed the bank through their website and they never answered, so on Monday I went to the local branch and the teller told me it isn't the bank which took the funds out, it's Amazon, and they, and only they, will have to put them back in. Meanwhile cost of this item I ordered on July 29 and never received is still floating around in the ether on August 17! Talk about passing the buck!
I remember ordering a used book at Amazon...one from Harry Crews as I recall. I've read everything he has written but I wanted to read this story again and many of his books fetch a premium...or the stories in short supply do. Mailman delivers a package to the door. Brown cardboard, Amazon on the label, the perforated zipper you pull to open it. I do. Inside, big hardback with small print, a tome that details book values. Whaaaaa? I think I jumped through the various hoops they've set up, sat there wagging my tail, ready for the biscuit. Never got it. Next time I see them I'll bite them on the leg.
GI Joe at least had the decency to not be feminized by his lack of correct "junk"
