My friend from the previous post told me today that she’s probably going to have a discussion with her husband very soon, so I should make sure my extra bedroom is ready for a guest.
I’m happy to help her. Truly I am. She is welcome to stay with me as long as she needs. But I’m [...]

Just don’t tell anyone
Posted in NaBloPoMo, about me, life stuff, self reflection on June 1, 2008 | 3 Comments »
I have no out-of-town trips planned this month, so I thought I’d give the June NaBloPoMo a shot. The theme for this month is home. I’m not sure that I’ll have a month of home stories. Today’s is home-adjacent at best. It’s really more about family and secrets.
For the past nearly three years, my very [...]
PS, I like you much better

Since I spent time whining about the book that I didn’t like, I figured I should talk about the one I’m reading now, which I like very much. It’s called “Why Girls are Weird” by Pamela Ribon, and it’s way more like the type of chick-lit I’m partial to. To which I’m partial. Whatever. It’s [...]
Insomnia

I hate this. It’s almost 1AM, and I cannot sleep. If I didn’t have a class tomorrow, it would be a big deal, but I have to train nine people tomorrow, which just isn’t fun to do on what will end up being roughly four hours of sleep. If I’m lucky.
I tried reading, but I [...]
Day off

I hate when I’ve had a day off and suddenly it’s after 8pm, and I have no idea what I did with my day. I’m pretty sure I didn’t accomplish anything. I did a few things, but not enough.
Sure, I finished my laundry and went grocery shopping. And I did read the 100+ pages that [...]
Local Yokel

All anyone can talk about around here is the snow. The local news this morning was about almost nothing else. They interviewed some of the few people who were out and about, and… I just don’t understand how they find these people. It’s typical of local news, and I guess I find it amusing, but [...]
Here’s my problem
Posted in Angel, Battlestar Galactica, about me, books, life stuff on March 22, 2008 | 2 Comments »
I don’t necessarily think this problem is unique to me, but it’s a problem nevertheless.
For the past several weeks, I’ve been recording a bunch of movies that interested me. I even watched a few of them. Actually, I have to back up a little. First I couldn’t even decide what to record, so I had [...]
Mission accomplished!

And not in the dubya way, either. I won’t be wandering around five years from now in search of season three of BSG. I own it now. It wasn’t easy, though. Why do I always have such a hard time finding BSG DVDs?
I was out bright and early this morning, certain I would find them at [...]
Key issues

I locked my keys in my car this morning. What the hell is wrong with me? This is three calls to AAA in the past month. Flat tire, dead battery due to leaving the lights on, and now this. This one really gets me, because I have said, “There is no way I will ever [...]
Drinky time!

Oh dear, I can’t believe I’m starting this a day early. Usually the day before Thanksgiving marks the beginning of what feels like competitive drinking season for me, but this year it’s the day before the day before Thanksgiving. I already had a couple glasses of wine after work, and Mary’s going to [...]
