My fifth high school reunion is tonight. I am not going. Am I not going because reunions are sorta lame, that its only been five years since high school and that’s waaay too short of a time to see most of the people I went to school with? All true. But mostly because I will [...]

Thank you, Mid-Atlantic weather patterns, for four complete, unique seasons. Thank you, Dove Daily Moisture Therapy, for giving me static-free hair. Thank you, blank notebooks, for providing me with inspiration to fill your pages. Thank you, Progresso soups, for filling me up when I’m hungry. Thank you, America, for voting and believing in change. Thank [...]

Yesterday was such a grey, rainy day.  It wasn’t like the rainy days in spring where its warm outside and the flowers are about to bloom, so even though its a downer, there’s still some sunshine around the corner.  This was the sort of day that if it was ten degrees colder, it would have [...]

My t-shirt came in the other day, thanks Campfire guys!  I wore it to Blogfest on Friday and it was great. I can’t believe Thanksgiving is less than a week away.  Its one of those holidays that are always used as a reference point, as in “before Thanksgiving” or “Thanksgiving weekend,” and its weird that [...]

What is the plural form of Blue Tooth?  Blue Tooths?  Blue Teeth?  Or it is like the word ‘deer’, and its the same singular or plural? I try to imagine hearing someone saying, “We’ve got a new shipment of Blue Tooths/Blue Teeth/Blue Tooth” and figuring out which one sounds the least awkward.  So far, not [...]

Yeah, NaBloPoMo?  I kinda blew it.  (Which I honestly pronounce as “NaBloBlahBlah” so I guess that gives you an idea of how serious I was taking it.)  Sometimes I get in these moods where I don’t want to talk to anyone and just keep to myself.  This past week was one of those times. Sorry [...]

As you may have noticed, I took about a week off blogging.  Beyond skimming a few things, I haven’t read my Google reader.  Twitter, I barely touched (as usual).   I’ve been a little out of contact and touch. So it was a bit of a shock when I received a message today from the “Fans [...]

When I was a kid, I begged my mom to hang a pair of fuzzy dice from the rear-view mirror of her car.  I thought it would look so awesome.  For part of my childhood, my mom drove a Cavalier that was older than I was, and then moved on to a station wagon.  Clearly, [...]

I went home tonight to have dinner at my parents’ house. My sister and I were sitting at the dining room table, waiting for our parents to walk in from the other room.  Our mother calls to us, “Did either of you feed the dogs?” Sis and I looked at each other.  “I didn’t, did [...]

I started to write this yesterday, but my computer has been extremely slow lately.  Trying to upload a bunch of pictures doesn’t help. Brunch yesterday at Your Inner Vagabond with Jen, Rachel, and Tony.  I’d never been there before, but I think the inside of the Genie’s lamp in Aladdin looks a lot like this. [...]
