Emily of Snotting Black asked me to guest post on her blog, thereby lowering the property values in the immediate vicinity. So please visit her blog (which is pretty darn fantastic), say kind things, and send large checks. To me, not her. Thanks.
Really Important Stuff That Happened When I Was Gone
June 20, 2012
Because the sum total of the money I have made from blogging approximates that of the current Greek GNP, and because I like to engage in frivolous activities like paying the mortgage, I decided to focus on my real estate career for a while, instead of on my keyboard. Stepping back from blogging for a […]
Ana, You Have No Gag Reflex!
April 24, 2012
Let us start with a confession: When I wrote my scathing and witty series on The Fifty Shades of Grey books, an astute reader/fellow blogger commented by providing what she felt was the best quote in the book. Since then, this Sesquipedalian Songstress of Syntax has been trying to find a post to write in […]
The Day After Hate
February 15, 2012
I’m forgoing my intended post for today, in which I was to reveal the true meaning of life, the results of the upcoming presidential election, and what is the best source for do-it-yourself dentistry. Instead, I’m going to share with you some of the blogs I discovered when I was perusing the tsunami of comments […]
Oops, She Did it Again
December 21, 2011
OK, so I’m supposed to be a humor writer (in my mind, of course). And I write the nonsense that’s in my head, which folks think is funny and I think is amazing that they think it’s funny because it’s just the stuff that always pops into my head, unbidden, anyway. I don’t ever sit […]

A Guide to Life After 50
September 13, 2011
AARP, the folks who used to be scary until we woke up one morning and realized we were one of them, continues to be concerned about the likelihood of us embarrassing ourselves because we have inadvertently lived long enough to remember the day rocks were invented. They present a list of Don’ts by world-renowned author Jacqueline Mitchard. […]
A Life in Posts
August 24, 2011
My first blog post. Tori, Tori, Tori. She’s one hell of a wordsmith, all right. Like Rapunzel’s hair, Tori’s words spill effortlessly out, seemingly without end. And they don’t even get split ends. So when Tori designated me as the “hilarious Renee Fisher” and gave me the 7 Posts Award: Share Your Best Posts With […]
A Short Hiatus From Blogging
November 10, 2012

Like Facebook, Twitter, and Donald Trump’s brain synapses, blogging imparts a belief that one’s thoughts are vital to the well-being of the planet. A vacation from blogging imparts an awareness that world events tend to continue with or without During my hiatus from blogging, a president got re-elected, after both parties spent the equivalent of […]
