I just had an incredibly disturbing parental moment. Don't let the title fool you, this is not the first time I've been disturbed by something parental. Parenting is disturbing from the moment you start vomiting because your body is trying to adjust to the alien being living inside of you. Then there are the sleepless … Continue reading it had to happen sometime
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…
mother’s day: the good, the bad and the ugly
And when I say ugly... I really do mean ugly. Like, OMG, so ugly. Mother's day (for me) started Saturday... from here it's all bullet points... but really dashes because I like them better: - A friend, not wanting to spew Start Trek spoilers at me but wanting to be able to talk to me … Continue reading mother’s day: the good, the bad and the ugly
this is NOT a test!
In just over an hour the lovely man and I will be heading down the street to our local theater. It's our favorite place for movie viewing (not counting out basement). There we will go where no man has gone before... except all those guys that got to see it before us... that's right! We're … Continue reading this is NOT a test!
in just a moment…
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…
because I really need a new post…
I was hoping that by the time I posted again everyone here would be all healthy and shiny but the facts can not be ignored. I've still got this awful cold like thing. It's clinging to me. Nestling in my chest and making me feel like hell. I have hope that I'll be able to … Continue reading because I really need a new post…
it’s not the swine flu… really
Friday was an exciting day for me. With K at school I had plenty of time to prep and get ready to do Strange Love Live from BarCampPortland's Friday night kickoff. For me it was just like prep for another episode, except no one would be coming to my house. Instead of getting things tidied … Continue reading it’s not the swine flu… really
Mama, What does F-U-C…
Sunday is traditionally family day here in the Kaos household. No matter how many tasks we accomplish during the week Saturday always sees some overlap of work, tasks, chores, you know stuff that has to get done. On Sunday we try our hardest to forget all that or find a fun way to work on … Continue reading Mama, What does F-U-C…
smoke signals
Around the time I was 15 I started sneaking cigarettes here and there... by the time I was 17 I was a smoker. I continued down that path of smoking until I was 23 years old. In November of 2000 I quit smoking. It was the very end of November, after thanksgiving. I'd tried to … Continue reading smoke signals
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
