It’s a bit of a running joke with my friends that they should bring their own ice when they come over to the house. We don’t have an automatic ice maker in the freezer, and I rarely use ice at all, so we’re often down to the last few cubes right as company is about [...]

Need Your Help Again!!

Remember awhile back when my friend’s mom needed your help to get a skatepark and several of you commented (and I loved you for it) and you tried to help her out by doing so? Remember that? Well, she didn’t get it…. BUT…she’s up for it again. So, if you don’t mind, and you still [...]

My one Spanish teacher friend showed me this video and I was dying laughing. It’s fantastic. I’ll post it here in honor of my other Spanish teacher friend, who also teaches music and ESL. He and his lovely wife, btw, have a blog of their own that I can’t believe I haven’t mentioned here before. [...]
And a week it was…

So, see there? My birthday did last a whole week AND a day! Got to hang out with a few friends last night, just chatting, playing a few games, and laughing a ton. That doesn’t happen nearly often enough! Thanks, friends. Lots and tons of stuff has happened. The whole filming thing was this past [...]

A strong-willed herald of causes against injustice, you passionately strive to right the wrongs around you. Somebody has to save our skins! Go find out who you are and let me know.
And so maybe my birthday will last for a week…

That’s my grandma and me. I love my grandma. She rocks. And we happen to have close birthdays, so we get to celebrate together occasionally. Here’s us blowing out our candles (should have been a combined total of 118. as it was, I think there were 19. probably better not to burn the house down): [...]

…and I’d thought of writing something nice and reflective and mature and all. I don’t have time. So just send me lots of hugs and kisses and that. I’m needy. And it’s my birthday. You got that part, right?
Shattered Illusion
Posted in Life on August 9, 2007 | 4 Comments »
Just so that I wouldn’t live in the illusion that summer would last forever, the UPS man brought around the boxes that would remind me that, yes, school will be starting up again soon. And, being that I’m a homeschooling parent, that doesn’t bring about thoughts of getting kids up in the morning, off onto [...]
Please remind me…

…that there is a day coming when the only butt I have to wipe will be my own. Thanks.
Feelin’ hot…hot…hot…
Posted in Lovin' Life, What's going on... on August 7, 2007 | 5 Comments »
I just ran out to the garden to pick some tomatoes and jalapeños for dinner tonight and..DANG…it’s hot. 98F (36.6C according to Google). And someone else said the heat index was at about 115F. Craziness. But it felt like it. LIKE A SAUNA. And Thursday’s supposed to be worse. Anyway, enough of the weather report. [...]
