mostly personal anecdotes where I sometimes try to be humorous

(maybe not always, Not everytime, but sometimes)

  • Sage

    As you can see, Sage survived. It was a miracle. First there was the uneventful yet some how perilous car ride (which involved a major “singing” protest). Next was the whole cleaning, IV-ing, and teeth extracting. Then more terror fraught car adventures and finally the food denial. “No Sage, I realize you’re hungry and GET…

  • Morning Antics

    Ok, so I’m woefully behind on posting. I have no “real” excuse, but I have some amazing half-baked excuses that work for me. (See, they work for me so I’m not sharing, you might go back to the whole “half baked” thing, which is a little judgemental. I’m a little hurt, actually.) In 2 minutes,…

  • The Sum of All Men

    One of the things I personally hate about bumping into people you haven’t seen in awhile is that one obligatory question you always get, “What have you been up to?” Which really amounts to about three questions: Are you married? Do you have kids? and What is your job? Some how these are the three…

  • Garage Sales

    My aunt, my aunt’s good friend Denise and my cousin are all garage sale pros and occasionally they let me tag along provided I’m willing to be reasonably functional and ready to go by 6:30 am. For me that means, getting up at 6, throwing on clothes and driving as fast as possible down the…

  • Prudish Funsucker

    WARNING: Adult Content I’m a prude. Oh sure, I have a fairly bawdy sense of humor and I can make sailor’s blush, but underneath the bad mouth coupled usually with some bad timing, is one of the most uptight people you could meet. I’m ok with that. I come by it honestly. You see, my…

  • Anna’s Arena

    Sneaky Anna, she’s snuck in some posts! Be sure to click on Anna’s Arena (psst, over there… to the right).

  • A Note to Scott

    Scott, I remember the first time I met you – and maybe we’d met before, but it was the first time I got into my head that “Scott is Daddy’s friend”. You were newly divorced, moving into a new place, Ben & I were playing something along the lines of Tarzan and Meghan, one of…

  • What I’ll Do for Indy

    They offered us four hours of leave if we walked 3.1 miles on Saturday. The exact amount of time I need so I can be in line for the first showing of the latest Indiana Jones movie when it comes out. I wouldn’t be a “geek” if I had allowed this kind of opportunity slip…

  • Tech Support

    I hate tech support and I’m pretty sure I’m not alone. By the time I’ve called tech support, I’ve unplugged, re-plugged, checked plugs, checked wires, swapped cables, rebooted, refreshed, recycled every thing I own attached to whatever it is that’s giving me grief – whether it’s the cable TV or the cable modem. Which means…

  • Bad Things/Good Things/Updates

    Life is a balance… Bad Things I lost my cell phone. My obnoxiously girly pink phone that plays the theme to Indiana Jones. A long time acquaintance finally succumbed to Cystic Fibrosis after a 41+ year battle. The IRS asked for a kidney this year. Why not, I have two! Big thanks to a former…

  • TMI

    A couple of my friends have recently come up to me to announce major health issues which have been followed with a statement like “well, I was concerned about telling you because I thought it was too much information”. So, I’m writing this for them. Too Much Information(TMI) – according to Beth What constitutes TMI?…

  • Update for Charla

    Since my step-mom uses this blog as an update on what’s going on (or what I’m thinking about) and I’ve been really bad about posting lately, I thought I’d update her. My apologies to the rest of you who probably are a couple of seconds from yawning if you go much past this sentence. Sam…

  • Update

    My step-mom is one of my biggest fans and since she also uses the site to get updates on what’s happening in my world, I figured it was time to post one. The rest of you can yawn and drool through the post if you make it past this sentence. About three weeks ago Sam…

  • Stuff White People Like

    Stuff White People LikeI keep bumping into this site thanks to several friends, so since I’m seriously too lazy to post something of my very own, I thought I’d pass this along … and btw, this white girl likes blogs poking fun at what “white people like”, although she occasionally holds her head in shame…

  • “Glass Half Full!”

    I’m a freak magnet. Just take my word for it. It’s just something about me – like Anna is good with computers, Jeff is good at drawing and well Beth, Beth is good at having crazy randomness bump into her. I’ve had days when it’s been easy – studying for a test and some random…
