About

We’re a family made up of two smelly dogs, one damaged cat, two good boys, one nice lady, and one goofy man. We live in Texas. This is our blog.

Bad Chemicals, the name of the blog, comes from Kurt Vonnegut. Vonnegut says bad chemicals are the stuff of insanity.

Bad chemicals are very much the us, this family, which is to say we’re out of our noodles. But don’t worry. We’re garden-variety crazy, not 12-gauge in the mouth, defecate in the neighbor’s mailbox, all humanity is a robot crazy. (Okay, sure, there may have been one minor incident involving excrement in the neighbor’s mailbox, but to be fair, that guy was a jerk. He had it coming.)

Here you’ll find out that the nice lady’s name is Sally. Sally dreams of owning goats and miniature ponies and loves pink foam shoes. You’ll learn that the older of the two good boys, Eli, adores playing soccer and urinating in the front yard. You’ll learn that the other good boy, Slade, blasted into this life very early and very small. He almost didn’t make it.

You’ll read about our dogs, who always need baths. You’ll read about our cat, who needs a brain.

And you’ll figure out that the goofy man is me, the odd job who oozes bad chemicals and writes these posts.

Thanks for stopping by. Please leave comments, and if you find yourself in Texas, please don’t take a dump in our mailbox.
