Celebrations and The Sarcasm, Snark & Sass Blogfest


It's a day of celebrations all around for me!  First of all, I would like to mention that Celebrate the Small Things will continue with Lexa Cain as host.  Yay!  I hope everyone will take the time to wish her well in her duties.  I will continue to co-host, as will Katie @ TheCyborgMom.  Below is the new linky list, so if you've been participating and would like to continue, you'll need to sign up again.  And if you'd like to hop on board for the first time, we'll be happy to have you!




My son Jude's glasses broke last night, but they're still under warranty so they should be replaced for free.  It's a bad situation that is bound to turn out better than it might have, so I'll still count it as an overall win for the week.

A hose broke on one of our cars this week, but my husband happened to have a brand new hose sitting in the trunk already, so that turned out to be pretty handy.

Now it's time to get down to an important order of business.  Today is also my third blogging anniversary, and I'm hosting the Sarcasm, Snark & Sass Blogfest to celebrate.  I can hardly believe I've been blogging for this long!

Anyway, I decided to post sarcastic responses to a few stupid questions.  Some questions come from life experience, while others were pulled out of thin air.  I hope you enjoy!


(You walk inside dripping wet.)
Question: Hey, did you get caught in the rain?
Answer:  Nope, I was just testing out the new outdoor shower I installed.

(Someone looks down at your broken glasses.)
Question:  Did you break your glasses?
Answer:  No.  The left bow decided to break things off and try to get together with those sleek new frames my neighbor just got.

(Someone approaches as your car is reduced to a cinder.)
Question:  Your car is on fire, huh?
Answer:  No.  It's just auditioning for a role as a firecracker in an upcoming film.

(Someone looks down at the gaping wound in your leg.)
Question:  Have you been shot?
Answer:  Of course not!  This is just an extra large piercing in an unorthodox place.

(Someone looks down at the table filled with food.)
Question:  Is that dinner?
Answer:  No, it's bait, and it obviously worked, because you're here now.  (You smile wickedly.)


There's my snark for the day.  Have you ever dished out a sarcastic answer in response to a silly question?

Celebrate the Small Things-December 12, 2014


It's Friday!  Let's Celebrate the Small Things with VikLit!

I'm happy to be a co-host, along with these other lovely bloggers:

Diana Wilder
Katie @ TheCyborg Mom
CaffeMaggieato @ mscoffeehouse

This week I'm celebrating the announcement of a blogfest to commemorate my 3rd blogging anniversary.  The Sarcasm, Snark & Sass Blogfest will go down on Friday, January 9th, 2015. I plan to combine it with my weekly Celebrate the Small Things post.  If anyone is interested in helping me celebrate 3 years of blogging, feel free to check out the details and sign up!


I'm also celebrating my kids this week.  The closer to Christmas we get, the more excited they are.  It's adorable.

I'm looking forward to this upcoming weekend.  We don't have any special plans, but it's always nice to spend time as a family.


What would you like to celebrate?

Announcing the Sarcasm, Snark & Sass Blogfest

My 3rd blogging anniversary is coming up soon, and I wanted to commemorate the occasion.  I also wanted to do something fun with it, though I'll admit, my idea of fun and the idea of fun heralded by popular culture don't always align.  Meh.  It is what it is.

Anyway, I've long been a fan of sarcasm and snark.  It's far better to throw out a bit of sass than to throw a punch, in my opinion.

With that in mind, I concocted The Sarcasm, Snark & Sass Blogfest!


The rules are simple.  On Friday, January 9th, 2015, give me a post that celebrates something sarcastic, snarky, or just satisfyingly sassy.  You can give me an example from real life, a favorite film or book, or you can give me an original piece of fiction. The sarcasm can either be well understood, or hilariously misunderstood.  Some people are in desperate need of a sarcasm sign, after all.

If you'd like to include the linky list with your post, here's the code:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.simply-linked.com/listwidget.aspx?l=fce729ca-70bb-4445-9928-ece5e8ffe098" ></script>

If you can't post on Friday but you'd still like to participate, just let me know when to expect your post.  I'm fairly relaxed about these sorts of things, so no worries!

So, yeah.  Sign up if you like, and feel free to spread the word!
