A Quick Update

No, Kind of a Mess hasn’t turned into a book reviewing blog.  (How AWESOME would that be, though?  Seriously, these reviews are crazy fun…  I’ve been tempted to do a spin-off blog, but if I can’t feed and water this one, I probably shouldn’t get another pet.)  Tater’s birth story, and proper normal blogging, is […]

Heeellllloooo!

And I’m back!  Mostly.  A big thank you to everyone for so many nice emails and general thoughts. Things are way better than they were and I’m not gonna pretend that so many lovely people thinking sweet thoughts didn’t have anything to do with it… A little bit of a change; we’re moving to a […]

Well, hell.

I’ve been silent for the last few days because the 2011 Summer of Suck has continued with another family emergency.  Because of that, and the anniversary trip that Jethro and I have planned for next week, Kind of a Mess will be taking another hiatus for two weeks.  BUT, when I come back on the 26th, there’ll […]

Thanks for the good ju-ju!

Aside from a brief moment of panic when I realized I had no idea where my class was (my iPhone can do all sorts of amazing things except access the ONE site where I can look up class info…) class was great!  It’s a class on creativity throughout the ages and since it’s being taught by a playwright/poet […]

Things I Can’t Quit.

I used to smoke.  And I looooooved smoking.  And I miss it.   But I miss it like you miss an old boyfriend when you find his flannel in the back of your closet; enough to make you sigh but not enough to make you call him and see what’s up.  Because he was a douche […]

An Life in the Messy House

Jethro: “”Why are there titties on the infomercial?” Me: “It’s the Genie Bra.’” *Overly excited women discuss a poor woman in a boring black bra that doesn’t support.* Jethro: “You have that bra.” *Death stare* *Later* Jethro: “It’s titty spanx! Spanx for boobs…” Me: “Turn it.” Jethro: “TITTY SPANX!” ************* Me: “Field of Dreams? Again?” […]

Taking a bit of a break today…

The Internet hates me.

So there’s supposed to be a post today.  A lovely and wonderful post about a new service that I found and how I got my first item and I was SO excited and it’s great.  There would have been pictures and everything.  iPhone pictures, but pictures nonetheless. This post would be fun, wonderful and informative…if […]

And so it begins…

Hi, my name is Alyssa. I say “Seriously?” and “Really?” too often, I love baking and books and I am…kind of a mess. I envy people whose lives are put together, because mine never is.   And I’m not just talking about the Martha Stewart organizational Nazis… I especially envy the fun, indie bloggers who can take some rick-rack, four tin […]
