The feeling of a 45-minute commute on a train or a bus is an entirely different feeling than the same amount of time spent in a car . The latter is much more unbearable because you have so much more responsibility. You have your life in your hands in a car, and you must focus. When you're on the train, you only have to worry about whether you get off at the right stop, which is an absurdly easy task to accomplish. One of my favorite things about taking the train is that I can play on my phone d…

Meeting new people is often incredibly awkward and demeaning. Not all of us are Mrs. Peacock from the Clue movie based on the bestselling board game. When she's introduced to a group of new and unfamiliar people in Mr. Boddy's mansion, she monologues, "Well, someone's got to break the ice, and it might as well be me. I mean, I'm used to being a hostess; it's part of my husband's work. And it's always difficult when a group of new friends meet together for the first time to get acquainted. So I'…

I'm not shy about loving dogs . I grew up surrounded by them. But while I love their energy, their penchant for unconditional love, and their undisputable cuteness, I recently discovered that there is such a thing as too much dog. When 5 huge dogs (including a Grand Pyrenees, a Mastiff-Rotteweiler mix, and a pitbull) get together, it can be overwhelming to say the least. And 3 nights of sleeping on a couch in the designated dog zone? Supremely chaotic, but you make do when visiting family. Need…

Greetings, meme-lovers and meme-tolerators! We're knee-deep into Hump Day, the one day of the week when it's acceptable to openly complain about being only halfway to the weekend. Sorry, boss, I don't make the rules. Despite the fact that Wednesdays can be brutal, we're actually kinda vibing because we've got a gallery of memes that will make you forget all about your midweek woes. It's true that life can be tough, but if these funny pictures are any indicator, memes are the ultimate distractio…

Catch them if you can!

Who knows how we got here, especially after all the New Year's celebrations, but once again we find ourselves at the very beginning of a brand new week. The days and dates on a calendar might be arbitrary markers, but the whole annoying reality of being alive is certainly is not. That's why it is so important to find ways to make everything more bearable, and that is where the joyous existence and convenience of memes comes in. Few things brighten the endless slog of existence like an extra-lar…

I love dogs. There's no getting around the fact that they are my favorite pets around, and I don't think anything will ever change that. I know many members of the meme community are cat people, which I respect. I wish I could be a cat person , but I don't have it in me. I don't want to beg an animal to like me, and whenever I meet a cat, I feel it is necessary. I know factually how to get a cat on my side. It's a long haul. You're not going to become a cat's best friend the first time you meet…

Here, there, and everywhere

Party time
