At Least It’s An Ethos…

April 18, 2013

(This post’s imagery is brought to you by The Big Lebowski which I used to hate but have come to kind of love because of The Mister.) One of the reasons that I’m thankful I grew up with the parents I have is their proven ability to introduce me to good music early in life. [...]

The Scrooge Who Stole Christmas

December 5, 2011

I’m not one of those people who goes nuts for holidays.  I never really was, and I probably will never be.  For example, although we have a Christmas tree and I wouldn’t mind putting it up this year, I realize that this is probably not going to happen.  (Side Note: after Christmas, I am going [...]

  I started off my trek to work this morning by seeing a white male in his 60s wearing a Failure to Launch tank top down the street.  I’m sure it’s just some ratty shirt he wears around to do his walking or something, but really?  You loved the Sarah Jessica Parker/Matthew McConaughey movie that [...]

I’ll Do It My Way

July 14, 2011

For some odd reason last night, as I was driving home from work, I started to think about wallpaper.  I think it had to do with the clouds in the sky.  They looked so fluffy, like cotton balls in the air against a brilliant blue backdrop.  It reminded me of the wallpaper I picked out [...]

Sorry for the lack of posting yesterday and Friday.  Friday was the big embryo transfer and I was distracted.  Yesterday I was sleeping most of the day after we got home around 3 after the U2 concert.  I’m not equipped for late nights like that anymore. The embryo transfer went really well.  Thank you for [...]

Not All Doom and Gloom

April 27, 2011

Last night I made the mistake of calling Mom after therapy.  It’s not a mistake to call my mom.  And I even felt good leaving therapy.  It’s just that therapy drags stuff up and, whether I like it or not, I can be a bit of a bear when I leave there.  So our conversation [...]

I’m really glad yesterday is over.  It wasn’t just one of those “bad days,” or even a “case of the Mondays,” it was a full-on assault on my sanity.  First, I had a paper due that, of course, I didn’t even start until yesterday morning.  Then, Brooklyn the Dog got out of her crate while [...]

Wacky Things About Me

March 9, 2011

I once lived on the first floor of a house for two months where the second floor was used as a dominatrix’s place of business.  It never bothered me until one warm day the windows were open and I could hear the sound of voices.  I couldn’t tell what they were saying and I didn’t [...]
