People who insult others behind a shield of anonymity

Posted by chica with issues under general issues

One of the things that I hate about the internet are the people that go onto other people’s blogs or even to message boards and insult people as “anonymous.”
It seems that you see it most often on blogs though. JW at Need to Be Debt Free seems to bring a lot of these type of […]

Posted by chica with issues under general issues

Do you ever have those days when you go out to run errands and just get really annoyed with people? Well, this is day two of that day for me.
I went to Target this morning. I parked on the other side of the earth. You see, whenever I go any place like Target I park […]

Funerals in the South

Posted by chica with issues under general issues

I just got back yesterday from attending a funeral in the South. Funerals in the South always end up being like funerals in no other part of the United States. And I find that interesting.

I am a big follower of politics and am a bit bummed that I am not in a state that gets to have a primary tomorrow. However, my parents are in a Super Tuesday state, which is exciting by extension. Sadly they do not share my love of politics though.
