I’m Not Dead.

‘Ello there, Internet.
So this is my problem. I get all gung-ho about someting (blogging) that I do it impulsively (write as many as three posts a day and save them as drafts to seem like I have some iota of a life) but then at some point, the excitement is nothing more than a dim light of [...]

Work Out, Wipe Out

Scene: I found an old excercise “Boot Camp” DVD in my closet and had a sudden urge to use it, which, HEL-LO!, I haven’t had the motivation to work out since I found out I was impregnated. Like almost two years ago. Like, actually a bit before that. So when a miracle happened and I wanted [...]

Updates and Downdates

Oh buddy, where to begin! For the last two weeks I would log into to my WordPress account and try to come up with something to say, something to express, something to write! But my “new post” tab would remain unused for the most part. Now I realize that there is so much I want [...]

Twitter Me Timbers

I don’t really have anything awesome or embarrassing to share today except that I’ve officially succumb to my urge to make a Twitter account. Oh big whoopty whoop, right? But hold your horses buddy. Let me explain that I used to be anti-Twitter because it takes me forever and more to warm to internet-socializing-keep-in-touch type of things although I [...]

Making As Much Sense As Fried Ice Cream

Fried ice cream is real by the way. So is chicken fried bacon, fried avocado bites, deep fried twinkies, and fried coca cola. Visit your state fair for your one stop shop for a heart attack on a stick!
I need inspiration for writing something, anything! I don’t know what to say or have a story to tell. Actually, [...]

Hot Cheetos + 6 Year Old = New Toilet

When Elham was younger she wanted to do everything-wait, what am I talking about- she still wants to do everything Sieda and I do.  You have to understand that Elham is 10 years younger than Sieda and 13 years younger than myself, so little sister can’t do everything big sisters do. But that’s not how [...]

Love in a Picture

I was cleaning out some boxes when I came across this picture.

Do you know what that is?
It’s  a portrait of me and Sa’ad after we got married, drawn by my youngest sister.
Although it was drawn at the hands of a then highly skilled 5 year old, there are some fabrications that suggest she has no [...]

100 Things You Didn’t Ask About, Part 2

This is the second part of that list, remember?
Travel:
51. I’ve been to Washington, California, Maryland, Washington D.C., and all of the major cities within Texas.
52. The only countries I’ve ever been to outside of the U.S. are Ethiopia and Egypt.
53. I almost enrolled in this 2 month long living abroad program in which I would’ve [...]

100 Things You Didn’t Ask About, Part 1

Not that you asked, but here’s a list of random and somewhat organized details about little ol’ me. Not that it’s extremely awesome stuff to know, but I insist that you do just because I want to inflate my ego and talk about myself.
Ha.
So I will force this list upon you.
Aaaaaand here they are…
Domestic:
1. I [...]

Google Love

It tickles me pink how a significant number of people find my blog through Google searches for:
mature smell
rectal thermometer probe

mature lady picture
and my favorite:
engorged bladder torture videos
That last one gives me all the confidence that people are just as sick as possible. But it does kind of sound funny, no?
Engorged
Bladder
then Torture
I sort of want to [...]
