Oh…Second Base Means Boobies

May 31, 2008

Just a few things to wrap up the week. The first thing is that, in my last post, I wasn’t clear that my birthday countdown is a month long. It started May 27…so that means my birthday is at the end of June. Don’t you all worry, I will give weekly reminders of how many [...]

One Day Closer to Menopause

May 30, 2008

I love birthdays. My birthday countdown started on Tuesday, and I’m sure it surprised everyone who knows me in real life that I didn’t mention it that day.

The Push Up of Shame
