Background: I love to share stories about my coworker, Nancy. Nancy is a man and of course, “Nancy” is not his real name.

Alabama – The best band of the 1980s, which covers my high school and college years, Alabama just might be the best country band of all time. It’s difficult to select a favorite song from all their hits, but I do love “Why Lady Why”, “Mountain Music”, “Close Enough To Perfect”, and [...]
A Nothing Fancy Christmas

I’ve been called out. Put in my place. Put on the spot. Apparently everyone in the blogosphere has posted pictures of their Christmas decorations. Everyone except me. At least that’s what my dear friend, Midlife Slices claims. She stuck it to me right here when she said that everyone has posted pictures of their decorations [...]

Mary outdid herself on Wednesday with her holiday attire. As I mentioned here, Mary is my coworker and she has taken tacky to a new level. She is dressing in holiday attire/costume throughout the month of December. Each day, we look forward to the hideous outfit. It might be okay if Mary had a nice [...]

Diddly Squat.
When did it happen? When did my memory turn to mush? When did I get so dang old?
I mentioned here that I recently joined Facebook. I’ve enjoyed reconnecting with former classmates and friends. Yesterday I received a Facebook invite from Mark, a guy I knew in high school. He sent me a message saying [...]

9. Troy Aikman- I’ll be the first to admit that it [...]
