		<description><![CDATA[It was 4:00am and my husband was underneath the pickup with a die grinder, cut-off saw, and a flashlight. That wasn't supposed to happen. What was supposed to happen was that he'd backed the truck gently up to the fifth-wheel, and things would go click! Then we'd be on our way. We rarely take family [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The signs were all around me; the Fates were fed up. Unfortunately, I never notice these things until I’m either smack in the middle of, or recovering from, a Cursed Event. Sign Number One: It was 6:00am, I was on my way to Los Angeles for a much-needed vacation, and I wasn't coffeed up. That’s [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Despite my constant ragging on the state of New Jersey, I do miss my house sometimes. Large and well-maintained, it sat secluded on nearly two and a half acres of entomologists’ nirvana. Aside from the eleventy-billion ticks, most of the insects were harmless. Which is more than I can say for the crazy people who [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Born a tomboy, I was always one of the guys. Even as a teenager I never had a whole lot of tolerance for fluff, and being that always popular combination of loner and geek, most girls didn't want to hang out with me anyway. My husband, who's seen pictures of me as a teenager, says [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If you watch South Park, you know they always kill Kenny. I've decided this is because the guys who write the show know my step-cousin Kenny. A perfect example of what can happen when the wrong genes collide, Kenny's one of those guys who opens his mouth and immediately makes you want to kill him. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[About a week before we found out she had Lyme's disease, I'd made my husband check the girl child for ticks. "Hey, isn't there manly man stuff outside for me to do?" Ticks are creepy and gross. How much manlier could he get?! Head checks were his job! A few days later, I learned that [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[“Was it worth five dollars?” My husband asked. He was looking expectantly at me, waiting to sign off on our bill for breakfast. I didn’t hesitate. “Absolutely. It’s really busy, but she was quick. Plus, she’s way low on the John Scale.” The John Scale is a financial feedback tool which inversely correlates how much [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I got my first computer during my final year of college. Custom built for me by my best friend, it sported a processor that smoked (compared to the school lab computers, that is) and came with its own copy of Leisure Suit Larry. I was hooked from the sound of that first wrrrroooooooooo! as my [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If I don't lose my keys at least once a week it's probably because I lost my other shoe and couldn't go anywhere to lose them. Usually, I find them clipped to a shopping cart or in my five-year-old's pocket (he takes after his father). In my defense, I've had a lot of kids and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It was one of the few times I've ever been on time to anything. We'd arrived early to meet with the rest of the students taking Geology of the Grand Canyon. I should've known we were doomed. There's a cosmic inversion of luck between my time of arrival and the time of departure. The earlier [...]]]></description>
