I had plenty of time to reflect on my life as I waited in the customer service line at Wal-Mart, a well-intentioned yoga mat clutched in my hand. My husband had purchased it for my daughter for Christmas but since she’d received two of them, his was going back. He hated returning things (does anyone enjoy it?), so I volunteered. The place was a zoo. In fact, it seemed busier than before the... (posted by Brianna 34 days 12 hours ago.)

I Love Him . . . Just Don’t Make Me Shop With Him
The Christmas season is upon us. It’s that time of year when we’re making lists and checking them twice, while visions of sugarplums dance in our heads. Oh, cut the crap! The truth is I work in retail and had just been given my hours for the month of December. I’d spent the last couple of weeks tying red bows on bottles of fragrance and strategically...

TCACS – Technically Challenged and Completely Screwed
As I lay on the couch, snuggled up in my housecoat, my favourite throw draped over me, I could still hear it. The old gloomy tune playing over and over again. The music was coming from the front porch. It was coming from the porch because that’s where I’d thrown the electronic gizmo that was blasting the ghastly tune. Have you ever ordered a subscription... (posted by Brianna 89 days 9 hours ago.)

A Large Double Double and a Little Respect Please
“May I help you?” the woman behind the counter asked cheerfully. “Large double double and a large with just milk,” the customer grunted back. I was third in a long line of sleepy people in need of their first coffee of the day. The customer was handed the coffee, looked down and growled, “You didn’t mark them. How am I supposed...

Suicide - Broken Lives
We’d grown up together and were best friends. Rachel was always smiling and laughing, so much so she earned the nickname, Giggles. We shared a lot over the years. We had long discussions over whether or not Santa was real. We made houses out of cardboard boxes and would go for walks in the rain with garbage bags draped over us. She was the first to know when I fell in love, and the first person... (posted by Brianna 141 days 2 hours ago.)

Sluggin It Out ‘Til The End
I have a friend who’s been through terrible financial and personally tragic times. He and his family have endured a lot. Many couples would have split after all they’ve gone through, but they’re still together. He explained to me that, now, more than ever, he needed a partner he knows will slug it out ‘til the end. I thought about what he’d said, and about how when... (posted by Brianna 147 days 5 hours ago.)
