Monster Cookie Heart Squad

Monster Cookie Heart Squad

Jaclyn, who you may remember as The Confetti Monster from her guest post on magic, had asked me a little while back for my shirt size. I had no idea what was in store for me, but if a surprise is coming your way from her hands, you're in for a treat. Last week, I...

Oh Bug, You’re Such A Dum Dum

Oh Bug, You’re Such A Dum Dum

Bug has to investigate everything. He's basically my body guard, and nothing gets past him. I tried to sneak my bag of three hundred Dum Dum lollipops into my room without suspicion. Hah, nice try, Mary. Look at these condescending eyes. "Yeah, this is the kind of...

Plan Your Funeral

Plan Your Funeral

Last year, I talked about planning your epitaph. It might seem morbid at first, but the fact is that we're all going to die, so we might as well have things to work towards and make sure our send off is a brilliant and true celebration of ourselves. This isn't for...

Jimmy Fallon Birthday

Jimmy Fallon Birthday

You may remember me describing the best party ever back in December, where I got to swim in a ball pit, have black light bubbles land on my skin, and get humped by a stripper dressed as Santa. You may also remember the fantastic balloon garden I helped install. What...

Mental Health & Medications

Mental Health & Medications

It's no secret that I've struggled with mental health for most of my life. Last Spring, I was a hot mess because of my break up. I was on more medication that I had ever been on at once, and had to re-learn how to deal with symptoms. I think it would be hilarious if I...
