So I noticed on Twitter just now that “Crashes Car While Shaving Privates” is a trending topic, friends, and you just cannot ignore something like that. So I looked it up and found this article about this woman in Florida who had a wreck while shaving her junk AND DRIVING. She was driving to Key [...]

Tax time always makes me feel like a grown-up, no matter how old I am or how old I feel at any other time during the year, but this year, I feel especially grown up because my taxes are too complicated for me to do on my own at home. Well, honestly, I probably could [...]

Thirtieth birthday – Check. And now that I’ve gotten that out of the way, I can go back to being 29. Here’s what I’ve decided: There is nothing wrong with the number 30 or the age. I’m not upset that I’m 30. I don’t long for younger days or miss the glory of my youth. [...]

I was reminded of these little films on Monday at my writing group, and then I was telling Rae about them later – particularly #11, Bluebirds in Spring. But they’re all still so good (well maybe not #5 – it’s not my favorite). If you haven’t seen them in a while, do revisit them. If [...]

Every few months, I get to feeling antsy and what’s-the-point-ish about my blog. Why bother? It’s not like I’m saying anything life-changing or earth-shattering, after all.

It’s always a pleasure to catch up with either of my Joshes, but last night, Whitney-Josh had THE most amazing story for me. Ever. And let me just say that you know a story is going to be good when someone like Whitney kicks it off by saying, “So I was watching the Tyra show…” [...]

Honestly, by the time I get around to talking about the boat show, no one is going to care (if there’s anyone even now who cares). But I still haven’t found the cord, and SOMEbody still hasn’t sent me The Picture, so today, I have two topics I’d like to discuss.
First of all, I FINALLY [...]

I’ve had some really weird dreams lately, which, you’ll know if you’ve been reading Onward Hoe! for a while, is not at all abnormal for me. I can’t remember what they’ve been exactly. I know a couple of nights ago, I was at some sort of performance camp for all ages. We were all learning [...]

I wanted to just make the title “Wow,” but then I wanted to double it, but then I decided to just toss the woopsie in there since it appears as though more and more people are stumbling across Onward Hoe! by searching for this very puzzling phrase. Y’all, seriously, if it is something dirty or [...]

I thought of something to write earlier. Something good, something deep, something vulnerable and reflective. But then I got distracted by the awesome playlist going on at Borders and an absolutely ridiculous conversation about how I should ask the cute guy next to me what song he’d choose to do a striptease to. I didn’t [...]
