The road is a situation unlike most interactions- it's one of the places we all go every day where if someone decides to be a jerk, they are literally putting people in imminent... http://www.chloroformity.com/archives/000108.html Hey. You. Bellevue, Washington. 4:22 AM EST this morning. I'm glad you stopped by, but I wish you'd let me know you have a question instead of Who-Is-ing me. It's more than a little creepy. Thanks, The Management... http://www.chloroformity.com/archives/000107.html A few days ago, I read that Major League Baseball is giving Bud Selig an extension so that they can keep him until 2012. It's clear to me that their intent is to put the entire steroids scandal around his... http://www.chloroformity.com/archives/000106.html When people talk to each other about things while they're thinking about completely different things, I call that not-sharing. They talk, so they are sharing, but they are talking about one thing so they don't talk about something else, or... http://www.chloroformity.com/archives/000105.html I recently read that Will Smith has started recruiting new members for the church of scientology. (Yes, I failed to capitalize that, and no, I'm not sorry about it.) I thought I remembered something about there being a personality test,... http://www.chloroformity.com/archives/000104.html Not long ago I reminisced about watching late night video programming on VH1. I mistakenly assumed that this programming was no longer airing, and I think the main reason I made this miscalculation is that I'm an old woman who... http://www.chloroformity.com/archives/000103.html Since Hubby bought me a serger for Christmas (easily one of the most awesome-ist presents I've ever gotten), I decided to make use of it and I've gotten serious about learning how to sew. I ordered a pattern to make... http://www.chloroformity.com/archives/000102.html Even southwest Georgia can have its handful of chilly mornings, and the past week has been proof of this. When it gets so cold out that it hurts to touch the steering wheel of my car, I begin to think... http://www.chloroformity.com/archives/000101.html While I was deciding what to write today, I considered sharing with you my theory on how the song Particle Man by They Might Be Giants is less of a nonsense song and more of a parable about the endless... http://www.chloroformity.com/archives/000100.html This morning was downright chilly, even by Midwestern standards. I left the house and hopped in the car to go to work, only to look up and see tiny, star-shaped ice crystals all over my windows and windshield. I tried... http://www.chloroformity.com/archives/000099.html This week I am working on reading a book called Nature Girl, by Carl Hiaasen. A few weeks ago I was bored at lunch and asked my friend at work if she had any books at her desk. She didn't... http://www.chloroformity.com/archives/000098.html The First Eye Roll of the New Year occurred for me this afternoon while waiting to be checked out at the convenience store. The gentleman in front of me was wearing a heavy University of Alabama parka, shorts, and flip... http://www.chloroformity.com/archives/000097.html I had a pretty good year in 2007, and I believe that 2008 has the potential to be just as good, if not better. I considered making resolutions, and decided to make three. In 2008 I will eat breakfast every... http://www.chloroformity.com/archives/000096.html All year, every year, I look forward to Christmas... until sometime around the middle of December. By that time we've been inundated with advertising and its false cheer, and the moments when I consider moving into a solitary hut on... http://www.chloroformity.com/archives/000095.html Money management has never been my strong suit. I live in the shadow of the grand tradition of living just slightly beyond available means, and as a result I have developed all sorts of undesirable fiscal habits. Healthy eating has...
