That terrifying moment when you get up in the middle of the night to pee, and it’s dark but you’re pretty sure you know where to aim because you’ve been doing this for well over four decades, and you let loose but don’t hear the sound of urine hitting water – there is just silence, so you’re pretty sure you’re still somewhere in the ceramic basin and you adjust a bit hoping to hear that reassuring sound of liquid pouring into liquid, but it still doesn’t come, so you readjust again, only to more silence. Then you shake it off, flush the toilet, and hope for the best in the morning.

A little of ‘The 12 Days of Christmas’ goes a long way.

Why didn’t anyone think to stop at half a dozen?

Or at those slow golden rings? The song stalls there anyway.

Plus, most of those gifts are utter nonsense. If my true love gave me any of that crap he’d be gone before we got to three French hens.

And what the hell is anyone going to do with eight maids-a-milking? I don’t drink that much milk in a year.

I cannot think of a more stressful situation than doing a yoga class with co-workers in the middle of a work-day.

Remind me again why everyone loves Christmas?

This ball of ornament hooks is SOLID. 

Impenetrable.

Unextractable.

Food Network holiday cooking championships have filled the void left long ago by those classic Christmas cartoons.

I’m too old to know what Fortnite is. 

And too busy with other things to care.

I’m a short person living in a tall person’s kitchen. There are cabinets I have never opened. Don’t tell me my life is all rainbows and unicorns.

Riddle me this: how can ‘care-giver’ and ‘care-taker’ mean the same thing?

Some days you just can’t tie the tie on the first try.

Overanalyzing anything so often leads to unhappiness.
