Giving it all up

Has anyone ever noticed that once someone has kids they are expected to give up basically everything about themselves? All their hopes and goals and dreams? If someone so much as has a simple wish for something for themselves they are deemed as selfish and bad parents? That is nothing but a [...]

You’re not from around here, are you?

So, does anyone else find that people have stumbled upon their blog by some pretty strange search terms? Recently, people have found my site by search terms “the joys of motherhood” (WTF?!) and “definition of sociopath in adults” (Umm…? Huh?)
Have any other childfree bloggers come across your blog by looking up some “out [...]

Breeder Rant du Jour

What was supposed to be a nice, birthday dinner at an upscale Italian restaurant turned out to be an evening with heathens. Let me paint the picture for you. My husband had decided to take me out to one of my favorite restaurants downtown as a birthday treat. I love this restaurant [...]

Don’t parents have anything better to do? Like raising their children?

It never ceases to amaze me the number of Childed® that troll the childfree blogs and boards. Fortunately, I have yet to have any of those over here, but I’m sure my time will come. I actually find it somewhat amusing. What can I say? I have a warped sense of [...]

While I do think the overall concept of having [...]

Crummy day, but it could be worse!

I have somehow manage to catch one of those summer colds that has been going around the office.

That is, if you believe Leslee Unruh, president of National Abstinence Clearinghouse. In an interview on Fox News, Unruh claimed that a new birth control pill, designed to eliminate a woman’s period, would make women more like men and it’s an “attack on women and babies” as well as being a pesticide.
