If the Gootchie Gootchie Goo talk delivered the first blow to my grasp on the English language, Twitter will most certainly be the death of it. You see, I used to be a grammar nerd guru.  When everyone else was furtively skipping class to go hang out at the Burger King across the street, I [...]

Oh Dear. It finally happened. Almost. The moment I’ve been dreading since we got married. The Big Man breached the sanctity of the bathroom.  In case it hasn’t fully dawned on you yet, I am not one of those people.  The ones who dream of double sinks and extra large showers so that they can [...]
