The reason I could never scuba dive is that my sinuses would explode from the pressure.

I miss my mother’s 4 month old poodle, Butterbear.

I don’t want grand recognition for my accomplishments. A pat on the back will do.

I can’t hear You’re So Vain without thinking of my sister’s worse nightmare.

Anything that has to sell you on its freshness with an exclamation point is probably overcompensating.

I can’t stand listening to people smack and chew with their mouth open – unless you have a cold, there’s no excuse for it.

Why yes, it’s been that kind of month.

This makes me think of how much fun I had when my grandmother would fix boiled shrimp during the summer.

Good question about most politicians I’d say, especially every single one running now.

I get the feeling book clubs were invented to sell books that nobody really wants to read.
