You Can't Spell Maddie Without the ADD

People who talk to themselves are going to be rich one day.

About Me



I am not normal but I am pretty average.

"The noble buoyancy of her attitude, its suggestion of soaring grace, revealed the touch of poetry in her beauty that Selden always felt in her presence, yet lost the sense of when he was not with her." -The House of Mirth by Edith Wharton

My friend Ben will take me to Ethiopia one day.

I have a very active imagination.

JD: And then we would have my real funeral.

DR. KELSO: [angrily] Are you an idiot?

JD: No sir, I'm a dreamer.

My Blog

I'd like to know why there isn't a "Random" or "Humor" category for the blogs because the following is completely random and, hopefully, humorous. It's a text-convo I had with my friend Ben. Funny? I ...

Ill Help the Polar Bears

Lately, I've been thinking about those people who stand on corners with their binders, explaining what good cause they support. I've never stopped for them but maybe I should. Though, I only want...

Black Olive Omelet . . . Shaken, Not Stirred

I don't live too far from this bar called Master McGraths. My family and I have gone there for dinner before. The second time we went, we had the same guy serving us. I thought it was f...

Please Keep An Eye On Me!

A Crackhead Approached Me
