The only real thing I have on my plate of things to talk about this week seems to be the drivers in my new town. I’ve never seen such a large grouping of people who love a good stop sign like they do. In fact, they like to pull up, park and visually visit with…

I’ve been holding back on a book review, but I’m afraid I’m not going to be able to help myself any longer. I’ve simply got to pick on Dan Brown’s Angels and Demons. I should probably put this in the Reviews section, but I think Jonathan would like to distance himself from all things Dan…

There are a lot of phrases that I can’t stand to hear – some are clichés while the others tend to fall under the category of “excuses”. I’m sure I’ll be able to get several entries going on “excuses I can’t stand”, since the list is quite long and I’m never short on vitriol. The…

I’ve always thought naming your car was one step shy of goofy. Sure, my friends have named their cars and I accepted that – even my Mom had a little Datsun named Debbie at one point. I have personally managed to avoid that little tradition with one exception. Once I inherited Debbie, I started referring…

Here we are in the middle of the summer movie blockbuster glut and NO ONE, not one of you, told me that Kevin Smith’s “Clerks 2” was coming out. I’m sad. Disappointed. Heartbroken.… and I have nothing to post about today. For the rest of my fellow Clerks fans here is the link to the…

Thanks to several of you asking about the comments, I’ve caved. I hope you’re happy. Just remember to play nice or as nice as you can without causing yourself an aneurysm. If you make me so much as twitch, please remember my friend Lynn lives in the Nevada desert and that CSI is just a…

This is from April’s recent adventures while standing in line waiting to pick-up her Superman tickets. She kindly wrote it up for me. Superman: 10:15 p.m. Tuesday, June 27 @ Alamo Drafthouse South Jimi and I are at the theatre about an hour before show time and position ourselves at the end of the line.…

Old Story for Lori As I’ve mentioned before it was my life’s ambition as a child to grow up and be a hoodlum. After realizing my physical limitations I later modified it to, “I want a double-wide and my pick of house dresses.” Some of you are thinking, “oh Beth, another one of your stories…”…

Well, it’s time I kill two birds with one stone. I need to tell Lori an old story and I need to goof on one friend who owes me a story. Since Jonathan is off horsing around in some small town in Texas and swears he’s only seen “blah” films so he can’t possibly review…

!!!BALLOONS!!!Thank you guys!!! You are the best!!!!For those of you not lucky enough to have friends and family like mine, let me share my day through pictures. From Charla. 🙂 … and from Ahnner & Jonathan (forgive the quality, it’s from my cell phone – it’s all I had at work) THANK YOU THANK YOU…

I love deliveries that show up at the office unannounced. I don’t get them, but I love them for other people. I love seeing the flowers, the balloons, the fruit baskets and what not. Of course, I’m the kind of person that gets excited to see a card in the mail or a letter. It…

Living where we now do entitles me to an exceptionally large trashcan. Forget metal dumpsters that you have to trundle bags of trash a block or so away to, I have my very own plastic container of waste disposing joy. This trashcan, all dolled up in hunter green with a little black roof, is larger…

Well, that’s a wrap on the reunion. I suppose it was a success seeing that I didn’t manage to spontaneously combust. Although, a baby alien did try to birth itself from the side of my skull, but healthy, un-recommended doses of Excedrin kept it at bay for the weekend. Several of you would have been…

I love my family with all their quirks, shortcomings, long-comings (hey, it’s the opposite of short-comings and I’m making that official as of today), drama, etc., etc. – you have family so you know the adjectives could run on for days and never truly encapsulate a family. Now the way I was raised, you stand…
