And just when you though life couldn’t get any weirder, I give you Life Gem. Yup, that’s right. The woman actually turned her deceased husband into a diamond. Please feel free to insert your own pun here. I suppose that gives a whole new meaning to the phrase “What a rock!,” [...]

Here’s an analogy for you:
Catnip is to cats as _____ is to dogs.
a) table scraps
b) a bone
c) squirrels
d) a belly rub
If you answered “c”, you are correct, my friend. Squirrels are like little puppy crack for my dog. I have always known that my dog loves to chase squirrels. In fact, there’s [...]
Theresa Heinz Ketchup

Ok, this I find absolutely hilarious. I read in the newspaper today that the republicans will not be serving Heinz ketchup at their convention next week because of the connection with John Kerry’s wife. I have been laughing all day about this. Grow up people. It’s just a freakin’ condiment. One that you’ve eaten every [...]

Well, I’m back. I had a really fun visit at home. But, it will be nice to get back into the swing of things. Listen to this – my first walk back, and some guy decides to hassle me. My dog chases squirrels, just like every other dog on the planet [...]

Aren’t moms awesome? Especially when you’re poor? My mom rocks (for many more reasons than the one I’m about to talk about). During this visit, she keeps offering to buy me clothes. And not just when we’re out either. She keeps wanting to take me out shopping. So far, [...]

Ooops…I didn’t realize how many days had passed since I last blogged. Bad me. Okay, been having a ton of fun at home. My dad and I took the dog to camp on Friday. That was so awesome. We hiked for over 2 hours through the mountains. It was [...]

Well, I’m finally back in Pittsburgh for a few days. It feels good to be home for a little while. The dog is totally loving all the park action. I’m so happy that they finally opened the dog park that my friends and I have been begging for for over 3 years. [...]
It’s Finally Over…

Thank you goddess, it’s finally over! My summer class is officially done. Don’t get me wrong. I really did enjoy the class. I feel like I learned a lot. But I won’t miss several of the really annoying people in that class. Especially Nature Girl who sat beside me [...]
Olymp-aholics Anonymous

Well, it’s official. My name is Kim and I am an Olympic addict. I’m going to need a 12 step program when the games are over. I have them on for every one of my waking hours. It’s getting sad. This morning I lowered myself to watching table tennis – [...]
Stupid Olympic Sports
Posted in Uncategorized on August 14, 2004 | No Comments »
Did you know that tug-of-war used to be an olympic sport? I wonder if countries used to just round up all the fourth graders and hold olympic trials on the playground. And if tug-of-war was an olympic sport, why not four square or tetherball? I would have been an olympian by sixth [...]
