My Gramma’s Hand Towel

November 19, 2020

I wrote that title and it almost sounded like I was going to write, "My Gramma's Hand Maiden," nope, I meant "My Gramma's Hand Towel," nothing sexual here, move along. It's one of the many everyday items I saved after she died in January — foreshadowing what kind of year 2020 was going to be.

Santa sees you when you're sleeping, he knows when you're awake...is Santa some kind of stalker or something?" And then this morning my friend Liza posted this Santa toilet seat cover on Facebook with the caption, "This is fucking terrifying Amazon." … [Read more...] about “He Sees You When You’re Pooping…”

Undercover Beach Ball Blow-Up: PART 2

June 22, 2018

Look at the dude behind me holding the beach ball! The Chronicles Of The Undercover Beach Ball Blow-Up continues! We went to the Dodger game, and I snapped this selfie with this beach ball ninja and his lady-person as she was snapping a selfie with his snuck-in secret inflatable. But enough about beach balls at baseball games! Do you know how the Dodgers got their name? In the early 1900s, … [Read more...] about Undercover Beach Ball Blow-Up: PART 2
