Safe, Loved, and Warm – where do the guns fit in?

Summary: They don’t! Safe, Loved and Warm is my guidepost for how humanity should be treated. On Valentine’s Day, instead of worrying about if they’d get a card or a carnation at lunchtime, students at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School…

I don't carrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrre!

The following is a rant. It has reprehensibly bad language. You have been warned.

These are the people in my neighborhood

(or…why Facebook groups suck) Let’s start my 40th year with a rant! I live in a little town in Southern New Jersey that was kind of a pit while I was growing up. About fifteen years ago, a main street…

On girls, boys, men and women

Um…NO. This is the official AP headline for the story about Taylor Swift’s quest to win as many awards for “smooching on the porch swing” songs as she can. I know this because many news outlets kept the same headline….

Grumpy Dwarf

I’m still alive. Just nothing much to write about. Well, I could go on about my disappointment with the Disney Store. First, a bit of background. I worked at the Disney Store in Echelon Mall for about 2 years –…

On losing our individual rights

I am not an activist, by any means. I have opinions, but little desire to crusade for them. Last night, Mom and I went to the Philadelphia Wings game. The Wachovia Center has instituted new security policies. They used to…

thievery at the paper

By the way, much ‘love’ to the misanthrope who stole two of my Disney ornaments from our Christmas tree here at work. I had a set of 5 miniature Disney ornaments. Minnie and Pluto are gone. That just smacks of…

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! :)
