On today’s episode of “it’s not easy being heather…” I decided to try making a whole breakfast in the air fryer. I put three small eggs in a little tin with water, then a couple links of turkey sausage, and a slice of toast. Problem number one… those items all cooked at WAY different speeds. […]

Today I learned I hate people
Ok, maybe I didn’t just learn that. In fact, it’s a well documented fact. But I specifically hate what panic is doing to people (who I’d already likely hate on a GOOD day as it is). I’m not saying don’t be afraid. I’m not saying don’t be stressed and anxious. Not at all. Be all […]
Facial hair masque?
I get one of those subscription boxes every month with a bunch of different make up and other various beauty product samples… I decided to try one of the samples today. It is some sort of “nourishing masque”. Cool. So I start applying it and the first thing I thought was holy crap this is […]
Light bulb! (or in my case… donut-holes.)
Sometimes you will hear someone say a picture is worth a thousand words. And you can promptly tell that person where to stick their picture, because that’s nonsense. I’ll explain why. How many of you have seen a picture of a delicious donut hole? Or a “Munchkin” as a particular coffee shop, on which America […]
Karma is a cruel mistress…
I’ve always found karma to be a funny principal. I’m not religious, I believe we are responsible for our own destiny, etc. But I’ve seen too many examples of “what goes around, comes around” to discredit karma. A good example of this was the root of my fear of spiders. It’s relevant to note, that […]
Why do they call it “doggy paddle?”
So, I’m sure you’re all familiar with the doggy paddle. It’s the awkward swim stroke that most young children use, where they keep their heads (barely) above water, flap their arms in front of them under water like an 80’s sitcom chick slap fight, and kick frantically, all while looking miserably panic stricken and QUITE […]
I peeled my egg faster…
I will never understand people who don’t have a competitive nature. I simply cannot understand it at all! If I see two squirrels fighting, I’m taking bets in my head which one is going to come out on top. That said, I don’t always realize that I’m in super competitive mode… Sometimes it’s ok, and […]
March 26th, part deux.
Before we dive into this, I have to share an aside. Yes, I know, that’s strange, considering how focused I usually am… Prior to writing each post, I go back to review the previous one. Today, I went back to the first and read all the way through, and I have to say, I find […]
New week, new problems. “Your address isn’t in our GPS…” March 26th
Another day, another dollar. Or in this case, another $3.20, one way. As usual, I find myself sitting in the living room, waiting for my entire 30 minute window. As my window comes and goes, I get the call to tell me my driver is there. I gimp to the door, and am a tad […]
Why go from A – B when you can drive through Z first? March 20
Well, spring has sprung! And also on a completely unrelated note, today, I had my first SHARED ride on MetroAccess! I was met with an adorable little smiling old lady. She was rocking a pirate patch, and said that she just finished cataract surgery. She was told that “it wasn’t a priority,” so she decided […]
