Not Afraid to Use It: Ever Have A CSI Moment?
http://notafraidtouseit.blogspot.com/2007/10/ever-have-csi-moment.html
Sunday, October 21, 2007. Ever Have A CSI Moment? I cannot be the only paranoid chick in the universe. Have you ever been walking somewhere, and your internal monologue kicks in to VERY high gear and starts narrating some really scary shit? Maybe it was my intuition telling me to be careful. Maybe I am just a nutjob. Or just maybe there really was someone thinking bad thoughts as I walked by and someone else was looking out for me. I don't know, but the voice was loud. And I listened....Not Afraid to Use...

Not Afraid to Use It: Don't Freak Out In Front of the Neighborhood Children
http://notafraidtouseit.blogspot.com/2007/09/dont-freak-out-in-front-of-neighborhood.html
Sunday, September 9, 2007. Don't Freak Out In Front of the Neighborhood Children. I think it is important for kids to try new things when it comes to food. So many parents have their children on freakish restrictions when it comes to what they can eat. I believe everything in moderation and at the appropriate time. The key to this statement is appropriate. LittleBird is two and a half. She just walked in the front door to proudly show me that the six year old next door had given her a piece of gum. Poste...

Not Afraid to Use It: Flip-Flops and Mass Transit
http://notafraidtouseit.blogspot.com/2008/05/flip-flops-and-mass-transit.html
Tuesday, May 27, 2008. Flip-Flops and Mass Transit. Summer is nearly here and footwear is in transition. From all-weather spring shoes to the barely-there flip-flops everyone seems to love, our little piggies are seeing the sun. At their own peril. We took the train in to Arlington to give the kids a little adventure. They were so excited to take the train. We could have just gone into the city and back out again, and they would have been thrilled. But what to do? You flick it, of course. So, I did.

Not Afraid to Use It: In-Law Olympics
http://notafraidtouseit.blogspot.com/2011/04/in-law-olympics.html
Monday, April 4, 2011. After quite a long hiatus, here I am. We've survived four months in the high desert, and life is finally settling into a good routine. We've have bumps along the way, but most issues have been resolved and put behind us. Which means the universe wants to throw me a curve ball before I become too complacent. Posted by Not Afraid To Use It. Labels: Welcome To My Life. Sweet Jesus in the morning. A MONTH? Say it aint so. Really. April 4, 2011 at 9:38 PM. Lord have mercy. My outlaw...

Not Afraid to Use It: My Grandmother Is Dead, and I Still Despise Her
http://notafraidtouseit.blogspot.com/2007/03/my-grandmother-is-dead-and-i-still.html
Wednesday, March 14, 2007. My Grandmother Is Dead, and I Still Despise Her. I grew up with two grandmothers. One was everything a grandmother is touted to be. She made us malts in the bathtub, took us on walks to the candy store, played with us on the beach. You name it, we did it. She read stories to us, sang songs about our blue eyes and we always felt loved and welcomed in her home. We were her grandchildren. What did she share with me? What memories did she leave me with?

Not Afraid to Use It: A Glimpse In the Window of Marriage
http://notafraidtouseit.blogspot.com/2009/05/glimpse-in-window-of-marriage.html
Monday, May 18, 2009. A Glimpse In the Window of Marriage. A quiet suburban neighborhood. An evening spring shower has scrubbed the air leaving a fresh and hopeful scent wafting through the three bedroom, one bath rambler. Sunday night winds down in preparation for a long week of hard-working husband bringing home the bacon to his pretty stay-at-home wife and two cherubic progeny. For better or worse, baby. That ain't no joke. Posted by Not Afraid to Use It. The Van Goat Ranch. May 18, 2009 at 11:36 AM.

Not Afraid to Use It: Vulcan Nerve Pinch Gone Awry
http://notafraidtouseit.blogspot.com/2009/02/vulcan-nerve-pinch-gone-awry.html
Tuesday, February 17, 2009. Vulcan Nerve Pinch Gone Awry. Those of us who have pets know that it is a love/hate relationship. We love when they snuggle with us, we hate it when they eat their own shit and regurgitate it onto the carpet. But something didn't feel right. I turned my head, and.well, I'll be plain about it. I had him by the asshole and what was left of his testicles. Just pinching and scrunching away. He was quiet, though. Posted by Not Afraid to Use It. Labels: Welcome To My Life. A big fea...

Not Afraid to Use It: If This Vacation Doesn't Kill Me It Will Be A Miracle
http://notafraidtouseit.blogspot.com/2007/10/if-this-vacation-doesnt-kill-me-it-will.html
Saturday, October 13, 2007. If This Vacation Doesn't Kill Me It Will Be A Miracle. Are back from our week-long vacation to Monterey and San Francisco. There is nothing more relaxing than being trapped in a car driving for five hours with a 13-month old and a two and a half-year old. The one continuous thought I had running through my head the entire week was that if this vacation doesn't kill me it will be a miracle. From the incessant I want Raffi! But, isn't this what childhood is all about? I know tha...

Not Afraid to Use It: Shaking Fists Skyward
http://notafraidtouseit.blogspot.com/2013/06/shaking-fists-skyward.html
Tuesday, June 25, 2013. My husband called me from work a few weeks back, and from his first intake of breath I knew something was terribly wrong. He could barely choke out the news he had received- one of his friends had killed himself over the weekend. No one seems to know anything of value. No why, just the where and how. All mutual friends are at a loss to understand. My husband is devastated, and I? I am angry. Spitting, snarling mad. Posted by Not Afraid To Use It. What does one say? I cant wrap my ...
