About me - Jessica Woollard

I was born a poor black child.... no, wait, that was Navin R. Johnson. I must say, though, I do feel a tiny little bit of excitement when the new phone book arrives. Is that odd?

I work in radio, and most of what I do is talk, but I also get to have some of

Pets & Animals > Pet Ownership Which makes a better pet: A dog or a cat?Smallicon
6 of 150

I have a dog and two cats, and I love them all! But I have to say, as pets go, cats are certainly easier to have as a pet. First of all, they're litter trained. While having a litter box in the house isn't ideal, it means they can take care of business without my help. If I have a long day at work and can't get home in the mi... More..

I was 5 years old when Elvis died, and that's when I saw my first Elvis movie and grew to love him. So when we decided to cut our vacation to my mother's short by a day so we could stop in Memphis and see Graceland on the way home, we were both VERY excited.We called ahead and booked a room at the Heartbreak Hotel - where els...

Home & Garden > Real Estate (Other) Commentary on long-distance moving
19 of 69

I move. A lot. You would think after moving 11 times in 12 years, I'd be a pro, but as it turns out, I'm still no good at it. Each time, I look around my house and I think, "hey, I don't have that much stuff, this should be easy!" And then I start packing. And the further I get into the packing project, the more I start to lo... More..

Creative Writing > Humor Humor: Side effects from prescription drugs
4 of 9

Could someone please explain to me why I would want to take an allergy medication that could give me cataracts and glaucoma? Is it because I'd rather be blind than suffer sneezing all the time? They should include that in the TV commercials. "Side effects include your eyeballs popping out, but hey, at least you're not sneezin... More..

Everyone can benefit from keeping their blood sugar low and stable, and in some cases it's possible to do that with the foods you eat and the frequency in which you eat them.

Entertainment > Musicians & Bands Musician reviews: Jerrod Niemann
1 of 1

A little bit country and a little bit rock 'n roll. It sounds cliche, but that's how you can describe Jerrod Niemann. OK, he's a lot more country than rock, but his country will knock your socks off. Take a little Keith Whitley, a little Waylon Jennings, and a little something very unique and you've got Jerrod. Originally fro... More..

My cats, Nala and Bianca, are 13 and 14 years old respectively. In their lifetimes, we have moved 11 times, and I can tell you they are not fans, but eventually they get over it and learn to love their new home. But when the boxes come out, no matter what it's for, they're definitely on alert that something is happening and t... More..

Internet Dating - A How NOT TO For MenI've never made it any secret that I think internet dating is just too... weird for me. I've never dated someone I didn't know first, so going on a website to meet people for the specific reason of dating them just doesn't feel right, even though I look at so many friends who've done it s...
