Funny Mix Ups In Conversations. Do you ever catch yourself saying something

...stupid? Today my little sister Cam came into the kitchen where I was putting some stuff away. She says, "Hey Mia when are you going to fix my lunchbox so I can take it to the second grade." I look at her like she's crazy. She's 11 years old...how did she manage to fail all those years? "Wha..." I... Sign in to see full entry.

My niece doesn't like my nose hair.

I'm sitting with my niece at the cemetery. I have her on my lap because there are a million ants everywhere. She says I'm safe because I have pants on. I told her I wasn't because my butt crack was exposed. She said it wasn't, but I could feel the wind nip my butt, so I knew it was. Sure enough she... Sign in to see full entry.

What not to do when the mailman...err woman...runs over your mailbox!

Okay, so I went to mail that red Netflix envelope when I saw the mailman had beat me to the mailbox. I decided to wait for him to leave before going out there. Somehow checking the mail in front of the mailman embarrasses me. Maybe because I'm afraid to get out there and find I have no mail. Then... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm struggling with this chapter. Need Bloggers Help.

Chapter Twenty-Nine 4:15 M ost of the time when someone dies there is a knock on your door, and you open it to find a policeman standing there waiting to give you bad news. It’s usually late at night or early in the morning. And he or she, although I’ve only ever seen male cops do it, says: “Sorry... Sign in to see full entry.

What to do when you see a bear? Calmly approach him and ask for a picture.

That's basically what me and my little sister Cam did. We were painting on the back porch when Cam saw something running across the street. We live right near wetlands and with all the new houses being built, wildlife has had to condense itself to a smaller area, but sometimes they get confused,... Sign in to see full entry.

Kids say the wackiest things when they're talking in their sleep.

My ex-boyfriend came to town with his daughter. (We are considering working things out and he agreed to seek counseling.) So far the counseling has helped. Anyway, his daughter and my niece were asleep in the art room. I checked on them numerous times throughout the night. I have a very strong... Sign in to see full entry.

Has anyone seen the movie Freedom Writers?

The movie is about these students from different walks of life warehoused into a classroom because they are not what society deems as salvageable students. The likelihood of any of them going to college or even living to the age of eighteen is dim. The reason this movie "got me" is because it's... Sign in to see full entry.

Bridget Jones Moment #??? Who am I kidding? I've lost count.

So I picked my little sister up from her house to spend the weekend with me. We're driving to my house and there is a graduation party at this big fancy preacher's house. It's the kind of house that makes you ooohh and ahhh. (If that's what praying gets you, then I'm gonna start.) Picture circular... Sign in to see full entry.

Can writers be good if they've never experienced anything bad?

I've sent out so many query letters, sample chapters, poems, short stories in the last fifteen years that I have been writing. I heard that it sometimes takes decades to get something published...hmmm. I've had newspaper articles published. I was published in a few "no name" literary websites. And I...
