What I wanted to be when I grew up...




Unfortunately there weren't any job openings for "1980s pink haired rockstar with magic powers in her earring". So, I signed up to be a nurse. And now I am removing fecal impactments.

New Brighton Beach Beachside Park, England's Coast


I love this photographer and this photo: Martin Parr will be in Akron at U of A next week. I'm stopping by. Let me know if anyone needs a ride!

Ahhh, memories

As I was changing at the gym, Coolio's, "Gangsta's Paradise" came over the radio, and it brought me all the way back to 7th grade - and my first time dancing with a boy. I mean, it's a great song - but first dance with a boy song? No, no, I did not dance to "When a Man Loves a Woman" or some LFO song for my first time. I had to dance to "Gangsta's Paradise". And I believe we were grinding (sorry,Mom and Dad). And I believe I was a privleged 12 year old growing up in the suburbs in the Midwest. And I believe it was at Dominican Catholic all girl's school Friday night dance, with nuns as chaperones. "Gangsta's Paradise".
Guess I always had a love of the wild side.

You Know What Really Grinds My Gears?

I am sick as a dog, but should be busy as a bee. No time for being cool as a cucumber.

Extra Extra Read All About It

Maggie supports Hillary, and we're gonna shout it.
Maggie Supports Hillary!!!

After taking my compatibility test online (at glassbooth.org), I was was 72% alike Hillary in my political views, and 72% alike Obama as well. I was actually 80% compatible with some goober I know nothing about, but we'll forget about that.

I decided, since I feel she is extremely intelligent and experienced,and has learned how to deal with a lousy husband, to give my vote to Hillary.
Agree with me or not, but check out glassbooth.org to hone in on your candidate.

Polly is Kind of a Skank


Recently, my cousins sent me a new and revised Polly Pocket, because they remembered how obsessed I was with them when I was little (and I may or may not still take them out of my closet to play with sometimes). I was a ghast (SP?) when I realized how slutty Polly had gotten!! Had she run into a bad crowd, like Dwayne Dumpster or Bill Buttcrack? Had she just had enough of living inside pockets and wanted to become less overprotected? Who knows. But, in the meantime, I'll be mourning the loss of Miss Polly Pocket. Skanky Sally has made her entrance...
