In 1977 in a 7th grade shop class a boy made a leather belt. It was a popular color of light golden brown. On it he pressed stars and music notes and a simple sentence... a sentence that could have kept him from getting laid ever. Ever. "SCIENCE FICTION IS THE GREATEST" And then I … Continue reading my belt…

and I do…
8 years ago today it rained. Not a huge downpour, but one of those consistently overcast days where the rain comes in waves. Where the air smells fresh and clean and the sky is that lovely pale dove gray with patches of white clouds. We were living out in Banks then and the 45 minute … Continue reading and I do…
persona non grata
My kitties are now persona non grata. Seriously. Officially. The tests results are in and Mike is allergic to them. So I had Mike's doctor draw up all the documents to declare them unwelcome. Doctors can do that right? I mean really, if a ship's captain can marry people I don't see why a doctor … Continue reading persona non grata
three by the sea…
This Summer vacation has been filled to the brim with NOT being on vacation. We've been swarmed with busies. Engulfed by the things to do. Inundated with important tasks... Well this weekend we said NO MORE! It's been a tough week. Mike's grandmother continues her trek to the end of things and that weighs heavily … Continue reading three by the sea…
CamiKaos goes to the movies…
I don't get to go to the movies nearly as often as I'd like. It's a form of escapism I love to indulge in but time is not necessarily on my side with this activity. But Star Trek... there was a new Star Trek movie and I needed to see it. And even though it … Continue reading CamiKaos goes to the movies…

Do you see over there ------> (okay up there) where it says "...the life, trials and smiles of CamiKaos and family..." See it? Well not if you're an RSS reader or something, but anyway that's the tag line for this blog. It was when I first started the blog a few years ago, then I … Continue reading in just a moment…
in the twilight zone
Something is just not right here folks. Something strange is afoot (and not just at the circle K). Mike is home from work for a few days since we have a foreign exchange Podcaster staying with us. We can't just keep him locked up in the house, we need to take him to see some … Continue reading in the twilight zone
bad with names
Every one has their flaws, I have many. One of them is that I'm bad with names. I can meet you 6 times and forget your name, and then the grace period where I should know your name has passed and I'm too shy to ask who you are... Also, I'm not always good at … Continue reading bad with names
really, 9 years
9 years ago while I was sitting drinking a martini, just after I had a really nice steak, a friend of my friend's walked into a bar to meet us. He smelled good. Actually he smelled great. And then I was in love with him. With my track record that could have been THE END. … Continue reading really, 9 years
the smell of music
It was a perfect situation... I got Mike tickets to see Al DiMeola for his birthday. He's a hard guy to shop for but when I know one of his favorite musicians is playing just a mile or 2 from our house it's really not hard to know what to do. He'd been waiting patiently … Continue reading the smell of music
