Lunchtime Purchases

No pain meds yet today. I’m supposed to check in with the Dr. if the ear is not any better by tomorrow – so I thought I might should feel the FULL effects of the pain so I can tell for sure. Yeah – It still hurts like hell. I mean – HELL. So – I thought I’d try some homeopathic solutions. On my lunch break I bought: “Similasan: Ear Wax Removal. Removes Wax, Cleans Ear” I thought – It cant hurt. My ear feels so clogged so what... Read More

Updates(Warning: UNMedicated)

Update on my screwed up design: So yes. One should NOT screw with designs unless she has ALL web browser packages on her computer to test them on. I know that now (after the comments to last nights reveal) But if there are any voluteers out there using something other than IE who want to tell me if it looks okay TODAY. I made some changes. If you use IE then you are seeing what I am seeing then its all copesetic (and I am not looking that word up). Oh – an for the record?... Read More

Shut the Hell Up

OR The Rules until my Swimmer’s Ear Heals (Or until the DRUGS kick in, but the rules are re-instated as each dose wears off) 1. No showing off in front of your friends with your piece of shit car. Since when did all the white-trash, rednecks move into my apartment complex? Yo. Shit-For-Brains! Yeah YOU in the damn Green Camaro with all the rust. Peeling out in the parking lot does not impress your friends NEAR as much as me killing you with my bare hands will. Squeal your... Read More

Jennifer Love Hewitt is NASTY

American Idol just finished the hour long snooze-fest called the “Pre-Show”. I used that time to implement my new design or else I may have lost my freakin’ mind with all the bullshit-spacefiller. I think Jennifer Love Hewitt looks worse and worse every time I see her. There is NO doubt she becomes more of an idiot every time. Was Kelly Clarkson wearing a sequined bra under a blazer? Now THAT is what I call business casual. Who the hell decided it would... Read More

Health Question

Is there ANY nutritional value whatsoever in a lunch made of a Caramel Frappuccino and Chocolate Chip Muffin from Starbucks? Not that I would EVER consume such a meal, but IF I did, are there ANY vitamins or minerals within those items? Or even fiber? Or calcium? There’s always calcium, right? Well – I was just wondering, I’m going to go back to eating my Muffin Salad. And drinking my Caramel Frapaccino Spring Water. Okay?  Read More

Hi. I’m Kim.

This is my blog that I've been writing on since January, 2004. I call myself Zoot as it's a derivative of an old childhood nickname. I used to write about my struggles to have children, but eventually I succeeded and now, I write a lot about those kids. I don't use my kid's exact names simply because if someone Googles their very unique names in the future, I don't want them stumbling upon my entries about boobsweat. I mean, would you hire someone whose Mom writes openly about such topics? NO. YOU WOULD NOT.

I love taking pictures and carry my camera (almost) everywhere I go. This means you'll see a lot of photos on this site. I also periodically post recipes I like as I've been slowly (but surely) learning to cook and I like to share my discoveries. Finally? I'm an annoying pop culture fanatic so I'll periodically ramble about Hunger Games or the latest Parks and Recreation.

I hope you like it here. If not? Please don't tell me. I cry easily.
