we've struggled over the last few years to carve out an office space for me in the house. It's moved around a lot. I've given it up twice to do things with space I thought was more important. Little known fact: Our recording studio used to be two rooms. Well a room and a half. … Continue reading now you know I mean business…

consumer whore cami finds time to pout
2 years ago on Christmas eve there was a little box waiting under the tree for me. It was rectangular and a little heavy and I was very excited as I gazed at the little box. Mine mine mine. I was watching K open her Christmas eve present when suddenly the little box that had … Continue reading consumer whore cami finds time to pout
notes on a Saturday
- No matter how far in advance you put something important on your calendar, something just as important can come a long and totally mess with that first thing... Even 5 months in advance. - When it rains it pours... that happens with good things too. - Raising my child is totally interfering with my … Continue reading notes on a Saturday

On it he pressed stars and music notes and a simple sentence... a sentence that could have kept him from getting laid ever. Ever.

When it's cold. I'm manly like that. When I get back I'll probably drink a 6-pack and … Continue reading because I wear the pants in this family…

When I looked in the mirror and the girl that looked back, her awkward smile and icy eyes, they weren't what I wanted to … Continue reading loveable silly little me…
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
bittersweet
This Friday has special significance in the lives of many... It's my daughter's birthday. It's the first day of spring. It's the anniversary of this country's invasion of Iraq. I don't need a calendar to tell me any of that. I remember the day she was born thinking that she was going to arrive on … Continue reading bittersweet
