My take on the VMA’s

Vma-2011-logo

Unlike Adam Levine I still get a little excited to see the VMA’s.  So this fight between Adam and MTV has been like two friends arguing and the last thing I want to do is pick a side.   I love ya both! My feelings were pretty much echoed by Rapper Busta Rhymes though.  When Busta commented on the [...]

Do you spank?

As a child my brother and I were spanked.  We weren’t beaten, but we were spanked. I don’t believe it effected me in a negative way.  I wasn’t ever a kid to hit other kids.  I never got into physical fights. I definitely wasn’t a bully.  I did however fear getting spanked and that helped me make [...]

My Big, Fat, American Thanksgivings

Margo2

I grew up in a BIG Mexican-American family. And we did everything BIG. Especially holidays. And ESPECIALLY Thanksgiving. It was probably our biggest and most difficult-to-navigate holiday. Christmas was easy: Christmas eve with Dad’s side of the family and Christmas Day with Mom’s side. But Thanksgiving was a NATIONAL holiday. A day to celebrate alongside [...]

Today’s Girls Chat, Debbie Downers

You know those people that everything out of their mouth is “woe is me, my life is awful”. Do you ever just get tired of the negativity? How do you handle it? How about blogs? Do you ever find yourself not visiting a blog anymore because it’s always about how awful their life is? I [...]

What I did

Back Camera

So did you all read that Ellie (or I, I’m still not sure who did it) stole a game from Borders? If a friend had come to me to tell me that this happened to them I’m pretty sure I’d tell them they should return it or pay for it.  I’m going to be honest, [...]

What would you do?

Back Camera

We had been to dinner with Mama Mary Show and her kiddies.  After a glass of wine, we decided we should hit up Borders.  You see, this location is closing and everything is 20-30% off!   So you can [...]
