So yesterday Sis & The BFF & I all went to the Detroit Institute of Arts to see a Star Wars costume exhibit. It was the real costumes from the real movies! The lightsabers in that one pic actually had buttons you could push to make them light up. And look how freaky the Emperor’s costume looks. There were more than costumes, it had lots of ( Read more... )

So Friday was Sis’ birthday! She took the day off & we went to Auburn Hills to one of the largest outlet malls in the state, or something, idk I’d never been there before. But it got an aquarium a few years back and Sis & Canadian Brother took all four kids back then. It’s not a huge aquarium or anything, but bigger than I expected for being in a ( Read more... )

I know I haven't talked about baseball this year, but today I have to. Because history was made last night. I don't care if you are a baseball fan or not, this is amazing! The Chicago Cubs just won the World Series for the first time in 108 years! HISTORY FUCKING MADE ( Read more... )

If you've followed me for any time, you probably know I am a Detroit Tigers fan. But maybe you didn't know, that besides the Tigers, I will watch the NY Mets. They are my National League team and my New York team. And they play on TBS with enough regularity that I can catch a game or three a season. The Mets have been kind of the NY underdog, ( Read more... )

I didn't post yesterday because I had a long ass day at the doctor's. My primary recced me to a urologist, a dietician and another pain management clinic - (per my request they are sending me to the pain clinic my little brother used to go to, as he said they helped him a lot). Just trying to get a handle on my pain, fatigue and UTIs. I saw the ( Read more... )

OMG, I have so many comments to catch up on and I was gonna do it today, I swear, but...then I didn't. It's been a crazy few days. On Friday I had one of the worst flares I've had in a long time, like almost went to the ER, took an entire pain pill, kind of thing. Made it through that, still felt pretty bad on Saturday, but went to see Pitch ( Read more... )

Why yes, those are lyrics to Eye Of The Tiger. Cuz DETROIT IS GOING TO THE PLAYOFFS! THE DETROIT TIGERS ARE ON TO THE POST-SEASON! AMERICAN LEAGUE SERIES, HERE WE COME ( Read more... )

Look at me, making a post like an adult. I was going to make a post on Monday about how awful everything was, but it seemed like too much work. Instead I talked to D, which always helps, and then I started my Awesome Time of Month, which didn’t make me feel better but at least explained why I randomly wanted to burst into tears all day, and now I ( Read more... )

1) The Tigers traded Prince Fielder. (I know, you thought I was done talking about baseball for the year). I’m fucking pissed. He is the best first baseman in the goddamn league and yeah, his hitting dropped off a little last season but that’s like saying ‘oh a shark lost a tooth’ but he’s still a goddamn shark! We got Ian Kinsler from Texas ( Read more... )

So, any of you who even remotely pay attention to sports, have heard by now that my beloved Detroit Tigers are out for the year. Boston took the ALCS and are in the World Series now and we’ve gone home. We were having such a good run, each game being so close, and that last game, I really thought we had it and then the fucking last couple of ( Read more... )
