This is Why We Can't Have Nice Things

“I’m so tired, X (a 2.5 year old child) wouldn’t go to sleep last night. I’m sure it would be better if we had a sleep schedule, but we don’t believe in that.”

So basically, you just let your child run your life because he doesn’t want to sleep? Of course he doesn’t want to go to sleep. He is a child; children have active brains and a fear of missing out on the good things. So in essence, you as the provider of the family are depriving yourself of SLEEP because you don’t believe your child should be told when to go to bed, because he will do it on his own?! Are you kidding me?

Please stop pro-creating. It’s not enough that you don’t believe in vaccines for your child, but you’re going to bitch about not sleeping enough based on a choice you are making? Your choice to not get your child the proper amount of rest is going to affect him for the rest of his life. Also? Your lack of sleep is probably why you are stressed all the time.


What kind of anti-establishment bullshit are you really feeding into? And don’t even get me started on the “we’re going to home school because we want him to learn when he is ready to learn” bullshit you spilled to me.


I just can’t. I can’t understand why you would think that your child not sleeping enough was a good decision. But clearly it’s a series of ridiculous choices you are making as a parent. And all I can think is, clearly you lack common sense, because no one could be THAT stupid.

I'm So Sorry That You Have to Have A Body....

 I was walking through a crowed casino hall on New Years Eve with my then boyfriend and friend, we were making our way to the area where there was supposed to be a balloon drop at midnight and I was really excited to be spending my first New Years Eve with my boyfriend – some parts because I managed to get him out of the house with me, but mostly because I have always loved New Years Eve.  It always represented a change for me where one door closes an another one opens. New Year, new me and all that jazz. Thought I have never been one for New Years Resolutions, I have always liked the magic of something new.  As we made our way through the crowed a women made a rude comment about my weight which I ignored because I was used to it, but also because I was on a mission to kiss a very attractive man under a shower of balloons.   The comment, however, was very triggering to my friend and she rushed off and out of the casino. Not wanting her to be alone and to figure o...

Some of Them Want to Use You...

I haven’t quite figured out how to take certain things back and claim the ownership. Like the term, Super-Sized Big Beautiful Women (SSBBW) which apparently I am. What I should be doing:      Delete.      Block.      Move on. What I Am doing:      Allowing it to permeate my brain and simmer angrily inside me. So let me allow myself a moment to open the metaphorical vein and bleed it out because I can’t seem to shake it and I can’t seem to put in into the category of words that I have taken back and used as my own. Words like fat, chunky, or chubby. They seem to easily switch to the side of good. SSBBW, implies a lack of person to me. It’s a term used in search engines that I find to dehumanize and reduce women to objects. Objectification of fat people seems to be my biggest “trigger” in any situation where I go from feeling good, to feeling pissed off. It’s not something endearing and I liken it to the backhanded comp...

You took my heart by surprise and I wasn't expecting that...

All nieces are brilliant and beautiful and obviously take after their Aunt. - Unknown My Sister is so crafty, she made a baby. From scratch. When I found out my sister was pregnant it brought on so many feelings of excitement. And I hoped so very much for a niece. I’d already obtained (not be questionable means) two nephews who I do adore, but my life was missing a little girl. I wanted to share the same love that my aunt gave my sister and I with a niece of my own. Of course, I love my nephews just the same and I make sure to spend as much time with them as possible so that when they look back, they can know the love I have felt from my own aunt. And lucky Surprise! It’s a girl. My heart soared with excitement and possibility.  When Aria was born, I had a hard time concentrating at work because I was so excited to meet her, it was my 3rd day on the job. But the true magic happened when I saw my sister holding my new niece. I saw the love and the exhaustion. I saw the ...
