Of all the sites on the internet, this is one.
Something weird happened to me that I’m amazed doesn’t happen more often. I was walking down the street. I knew I was close to a store that I wanted to go into, but I didnt’ feel like opening every door going “Excuse me, are you Store X?” So I did what I always do. I …

This is so depressing. On one hand, it took a lot for me to even look at this story, because I didn’t want to read about a company being such pricks. But that’s exactly why I needed to look at this, and post about it. Nathalie Blanchard was off on sick leave because she was …

I figured I’d write a few Christmas-related thoughts. Holy crap, I’m actually getting my Christmas shopping in order. I just need to pick up a few things, and get a couple more ideas, and I’ll be done. Of course, a lot of this stuff has to come through the mail…so there’s still a lot of …
Ro gave us a Thanksgiving award thingy. What a sweety. I swear we’re the same person sometimes. I’m happy we never scared her away way back when she started reading our crazy stuff. So the rules are you’re supposed to pass this award on to five other blog authors who you think deserve a little …

I have no idea what I’m writing about here, I’m just writing for the sake of writing. I guess we’ll see how this turns out…wonder if any of you will bother to read it to the end. I hate my body. Yeah, let’s start there. My body can go to hell. Since Carin has to …
Looking over the years of posts, I see that we don’t usually mention much to do with Remembrance Day right on the day. So I thought I’d write something I was thinking about. I’ll never forget what happened the year I was picked to play Last Post and Reveille at our school assembly and then …
I wanted to write a blog post about random things, but I’m not as cool as R. She can create something out of absolutely nothing and make it look so easy…and hilarious. Me, I need a list. Then I can go nuts. You know in those commercials for osteoporosis drugs where they say that rarely, …
Well, I made it through my cousin’s service yesterday…although I can’t say the same for several kleenexes. Poor dad, I blew through his entire stash, and he had to get more! Poor, poor dad. The church was jam packed full of people, so much so that the minister had to go get more chairs. There …
