Why I am not a makeup blogger

I’ve been a blissfully happy Birchbox member for over a year now. I enjoy the samples and it’s just fun to get a $10 box of surprises each month. So far I’ve discovered two new fragrances, a BB cream that…

Do not buy me this.

As a matter of fact, don’t buy this for ANYBODY! This is the first installment in a series of Eagles-branded, Disney-branded salt and pepper shakers. In later installments, Goofy is the coach, Donald’s dropping the n-word and Pluto is buried…

Throwback Thursday: High school bowling

Not purely new content, as it was originally on Facebook. But behold the high school bowler. Are high school yearbooks still printed in black and white? Do they still deliver them via stagecoach? We had a work bowling party last…

Hello!

About Me

I've been blogging for over twenty (2 decades! 2-0!) years and I'm apparently one of the few over-50 female bloggers who haven't sold out to THE MAN yet; hence this blog remains quirky, homespun, and unprofitable. No big. However, if you're from Disney, Doritos, or Dave Matthews Band, I'm open to talk about selling out.

I live in Southern New Jersey with my husband WM, and our dog Murphy. I'm an adult who likes Disney but not a Disney Adult. I used to work a fun (really!) office job in Philadelphia, but since March of 2020 I'm a work from home hermit. So if you're looking for a childless, slightly round, marginally boring GenX woman's blog to follow, you've come to the right place! :)

A plucky heroine and academically minded hero? A road trip to Key West? Optimism v pessimism?? Adults being adults and using their words to keep disagreements from lasting more than a few hours? Sign me up forever.

the wombsday clock graphic with two teal haired women in white rockers. It has reached 12 months and there are teal and white stars all over the graphic.
Well, that happened.
