Kids, it occurs to me that, since I've come back from my self-imposed blogging hiatus, I have not shared the details of my recent move. Seems like that would be an important topic to blog about, seeing as how I used the move as an excuse to put off my return to blogging. Even though, … Continue reading Did I Mention I Moved?

Hard Hat Convention
Driving home around lunchtime yesterday, I came across a sign letting me know that someone was doing some utility work up the road. It wasn't long before I saw where the work was taking place. Except, at first, I didn't see anyone doing any work. I just saw roughly 15 people in hard hats leaning … Continue reading Hard Hat Convention
1,001 Posts
Kids, welcome to my 1,001st blog post here on The Confusing Middle. Yesterday, after my Rewatching Buffy post was published, I got a notification from WordPress saying that I had posted exactly 1,000 on this here blog. I feel like there should be more fanfare. I'm sure you're sitting in your seat beginning a slow … Continue reading 1,001 Posts
The Silverfish Scenario
Ugh... Silverfish... Is there a more disgusting thing in all of creation? Probably. But, at the moment, I'm not capable of thinking of one. You know what a silverfish is, right? They're those bugs that basically look like pocket sized alien monsters. I'm sorry, something with that many legs is just unnatural. Last night, prior … Continue reading The Silverfish Scenario
Stand Up
Remember a few weeks ago when I came to the blogging community for advice? I was about to take the stage as part of the entertainment for a thing with a group from my church. And I had no idea what I would actually be doing. I settled on a stand-up comedy routine. And Kristen … Continue reading Stand Up
10 Foods I’ve Missed on Whole30
Kids, in less that one week, I will be finished with the 30 days required for the Whole30. I'm gonna kick this thing in the teeth. There have been so many things I've missed about my regular diet. I don't think I'm capable of listing all of the foods that have crossed my mind in … Continue reading 10 Foods I’ve Missed on Whole30
So… I’m Doing Whole30
Alternatively, this post could have been titled "Of All the Decisions I've Ever Made in My Life, I Question This the Most" or "Why I Clearly Hate Myself and Everything I Stand For." Let me set the scene for you: It's Tuesday at the office. We're barrelling toward the end of the day at breakneck … Continue reading So… I’m Doing Whole30
Old Tales from Old Navy: The Broken Door
What follows is a tale from a long ago time when I worked retail for a small business known as Old Navy. What you are about to read is mostly true-ish. There are a lot of stupid people out there. Maybe stupid is the wrong word. I should probably just say ignorant. Because the people … Continue reading Old Tales from Old Navy: The Broken Door
Why I Should Never Be On The Price Is Right
I love The Price Is Right. I usually find myself watching it whenever I'm at home on a weekday. I watched it during the summer when I was home from school as a kid. I watched it during college when I had a break during classes. It's just a fun kind of show. And I … Continue reading Why I Should Never Be On The Price Is Right
5 People Who Would Make a Worse President Than Donald Trump
Today is going to be a difficult day for roughly half the population of the United States. That's why I'd like to take a moment to put things into perspective. My intention is not to belittle anyone's feelings regarding the inauguration of Donald Trump as the country's 45th president. But, let's be honest, things could … Continue reading 5 People Who Would Make a Worse President Than Donald Trump
