Other Sites I Deem Worthwhile

- Free Range Kids Sanity in parenting. Keeping me from being a SMother
- Friendly Atheist News and commentary from the Godless World

If you ask me what my favorite movie was when I was a kid, I’ll say Star Wars. And it’s true, that was the movie that I had the most toys from. But in reality, my favorite movie was Dirty … Continue reading

The Carnival in my Head
As I’ve mentioned before, I was formally diagnosed with ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder.) The general reaction has been duh, even from me. But that response is to the stereotype of ADD/ADHD. Even I just assumed that all the diagnosis … Continue reading

Why I Don’t Believe In God, Part 4

Failure to Launch
I’m still working on Why I Don’t Believe In God, Part Four, but it’s definitely going to be a few days. There’s so much information to condense. It’s like pruning down to a Bonsai; this tree has so many branches … Continue reading
Why I Don’t Believe In God, Part 3

Labor Day
I’ve had a few days of not writing. Sorry about that. The house is still kind of a mess, but I’ve enjoyed taking some actual time off. Not a whole lot, but E hung out at Grandma’s house for a … Continue reading
