Songs of my Life: Mysterious Ways

July 31, 2012

My first jobs were all babysitting gigs.  One job in particular lasted all summer and saw me watching three kids for what might be considered the wage of an indentured servant these days.  But to me, that $2 an hour (yes, I’m not kidding) was my ticket to freedom.  I could finally earn money outside [...]

Random Thoughts: The I Missed a Day Edition

November 2, 2011

Thanks for putting up with Keyboard Dog yesterday.  I got into work a bit late and felt like I was rushing to get the very basics done.  There’s an old (didn’t used to be old, but now it is) Alabama song called “I’m in a Hurry (And Don’t Know Why).”  Even when I first heard [...]

Every single time I hear Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin’” I always recall being in a bar in Toronto after the U2 concert a couple of years ago and The Mister giving me a smirk before obnoxiously yelling out the “South Detroit,” part.  At a bar. Of Canadians.  Which I guess is kind of fitting seeing [...]

Last night I was coming up the stairs after cleaning the litter boxes and I caught something out of the corner of my eye and went to go look at it.  (Again, this is where The Mister is right and I’m easily distracted.)  Well, in that process, I had to step over the bottom stairs [...]

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 [...]

My Concert Obsession

June 23, 2011

It’s no secret around these parts that I love going to concerts.  In the almost three years that I’ve had this blog, I’ve been to probably over 30 concerts of some form or another.  Honestly, the money I’ve spent on concert tickets probably should have been saved and invested wisely into some sort of mutual [...]

(image via Plemur) Back in good ol’ Michigan.  We landed around 5 a.m. yesterday morning and had to go to pick Rocky the Dog up from my parents’ house before going home (my parents live in the opposite direction from the airport, than us, so this was a trek).  I remember very little of anything [...]

My Grown Up Christmas List

December 8, 2010

Dear Santa, I know, I know…I should be asking for more adult-like things.  I mean, world peace would be great and all, but I just don’t see it happening.  What I do see happening is some of these gifts miraculously making it to my doorstep this season.  So, in light of the fact that curing [...]

Today is Election Day across this great country of ours.  No matter what your beliefs are, please get out and vote.  It is the most important thing you can do as a citizen and people literally DIED to get you the right to vote.  (I’d prefer you’d vote Democratic, but I’ll settle for you voting [...]
