The election prompted Mike to take a look back at a journal he had written in school as a boy. I've seen many such journals and always reflected that I would love to share them with you, dear internets. Well today is your lucky day because I asked if I could scan a few pages … Continue reading the journal of a would be madman: part 1

and then she said…
We were sitting around before bedtime having a little chat, Mike and K and I, when K decided to ask Mike if he would put on an "Animal Show" at her birthday this year. She's having a Jungle theme you see and no Jungle theme birthday could be complete with out a guy showing "dangerous … Continue reading and then she said…
an apron, high heels and a birthday cake…
In the last year I've gotten a lot more domestic, kitchen wise. Maybe it's that K is a little more self sufficient these days. Maybe it's that I'm in my 30's and am searching for something more than I had in my 20's. It could be that my high blood pressure has made me truly … Continue reading an apron, high heels and a birthday cake…

Last night Mr. Kaos decided to come home a little early. To make things a little easier on me. To bribe me with Chinese take out.That bribe? Always welcome here.Since K was under the weather she had no desire to watch us enjoy our savory meal. She actually asked us not to eat it in … Continue reading take out…

I admit it...I'm a worrier... when it comes to my people if things aren't going smoothly I tend to get a little concerned.
