Name of the Game (Calling All Freaks)
January & February suck. Everyone’s waxing philosophic and contemplating the meaning of life. Feeling sluggish, fat, and crappy. Levity is in order (as I have said before). So, c’mon… Now, some background: First: Imagine me in a movie, walking down the street in slow motion – the wind is blowing my hair into my eyes […]

Who Has A Mullet Now, Beotch?
It was 6:00a.m. and I pretended to be asleep when I heard my 4-year-old sprinting toward my room. “Oopsy daisy!” said L at the top of her lungs in order to wake me up. “Oopsy daisy” is so far off from what she should have been exclaiming… it’s weak and poorly planned, not to mention misleading. […]

If you’re a crybaby. Which I am.
Anyone who doesn’t find them funny is lacking in the intelligence department.
Read Naked or Me Talk Pretty One Day if you’re up for your sides to split wide open.
Amy’s latest book, Simple Times: Crafts for Poor People, is genius, too.
