It's been a while since I spruced up around this place. I was getting a little antsy and I wanted this place to be all shiny and new. I think the blog remodel is my new hair cut and color. Does that make any sense to you? It used to be when I craved a … Continue reading fresh faced and cheeky…
a serious case of the busy
Despite the title, this is not one of those posts where I wax philosophical about how incredibly busy I am. I'm also not going to detail for you all the tasks that are keeping me so busy that I don't have the time or emotional wherewithal to come up with some new inspired piece of … Continue reading a serious case of the busy
post coital bliss… or the halloween that almost wasn’t
Normally just after (or just before) October 31st I supply you with photos of the Halloween festivities that pepper my family life throughout the month of October. Not this year. I was sick, we were harried, life was hectic. So instead of the sweet family portrait of the three of us dressed in some sort … Continue reading post coital bliss… or the halloween that almost wasn’t
my belt…
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…
the horrible truth about me and Kenny Rogers…
Confession time babies. I have to come clean. Tell you something. Let it all out. I want to start with a clean slate with you guys and I don't see how I can do that without you knowing a little bit of my history. My upbringing. Something that scarred me and I'm sure kind of … Continue reading the horrible truth about me and Kenny Rogers…
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…
um I do…
I'm standing over the sink in my too tiny kitchen drinking out of the 1 teaspoon sized measuring spoon that is still attached to its nesting mates when Mike walks in. He looks at me and stifles a giggle then looks at the counter. He's just cleaned the kitchen so part of me is aware … Continue reading um I do…
I can’t fight this feeling…
I bet you thought I was going to make you watch a video of that REO Speedwagon song... you know the one. You've likely got it stuck in your head just from reading the title of this post... I know I do. But I think just suggesting it is probably enough cruelty for one post … Continue reading I can’t fight this feeling…
a boo boost…
I've been promising K for weeks that we would pull out the costume bins. Yes, we have several large bins of costumes wigs and accessories... doesn't everyone? I was looking forward to it in an odd sort of way. Kind of like you look forward to going to the dentist not because you enjoy the … Continue reading a boo boost…
things you don’t need to know (that I’m going tell you anyway)
I just finished singing a power ballad about my iced tea and soy sausage. Yes... I eat soy sausage. No I'm not leaving bacon or pork sausage behind, I just happen to like this particular brand of soy sausage too. The tea I was singing about (and to) is almost gone. I need to buy … Continue reading things you don’t need to know (that I’m going tell you anyway)
