Hair Accessories to Cover the Quarantine Grays (Inspired by Bravo)
As Leslie Jordan of Instagram fame would say: Hello, all you fellow hunker downers. (I know you’re already following him on Instagram. He’s got 3.5 million followers. But if you’re not, you should. His hot takes on quarantining are gold. Pure, Instagram gold.) So, it’s getting to be that time. No, not time to begin…

How to Have an Amazing Birthday
My 45th birthday was a couple of months ago, so I’ve had some time to really think about this. Be born. Done, easy, check. (OK, this one is going to take a while.) Find a life partner as fabulous as XFE. Took me about, ummmm, 34 years and a couple of failed attempts. Agree to…

Eight Reasons We Need a Real Housewives of the Olympic Village
The Olympics are on and they are totally messing with my Bravo viewing. I’m not a fan of the Olympics and not just because of the TV viewing disruption.

Don’t Know How to Convey Your Annoyance Via Text? Go With a PoEmoji
FAKT: I have never used an emoji. I actually don’t even know how to. Are they on my phone somewhere? I am old and decrepit and have no idea. Maybe they’re housed on my Life Alert. I recently read that some new emojis are being considered and it got me thinking about which ones I…

Hey, you know that whole “exercise is good for you, it will help you live longer, improve your stamina, put you in a good mood” stuff? Yeah, I don’t get that either. In fact, the main reason I go to the gym is to accompany my gym-buddy-for-life XFE to his beloved Body Pump class. You…

My (Exhaustive and Expletive-Filled) History with Capital One
Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I am a reasonable person. It is true I often find myself annoyed and angry at my fellow human beings, but rarely do I throw around terms such as Dodd-Frank, or CFPB. I might occasionally find customer service people to be, well, rude, but I try not to threaten…

Real Housewives Vacation Packing List
Our trip to Costa Rica is only a couple of weeks away, so, of course, I’ve begun obsessing over what to pack. Usually, beach vacations are pretty easy to pack for. But, then I saw the Real Housewives of Orange County on their trip to Costa Rica and much like Gretchen, I’m now having a…

What I Do When XFE is Away
My caretaker-for-life XFE is out of town for work. He actually travels for work quite a bit. I used to get really annoyed about that. For some reason, I thought he was out, galavanting and having a grand ole time. But, I’ve travelled. I’ve been in an airport and dealt with long security lines. I’ve…
