weird weird weird. engineers are weird. I wonder how these guys get dates, or you know like an egg fresh from the chicken feels. I have run into some non-sociable types. Totally backward, like a hillbilly but almost more annoying. Cause they’re really trying, but it comes off as stalker/serial killer-ish instead of earnest.I wonder … [Read more…]
Okay. so Erin from the Looney Bin thinks I’m nice too! Woohoo! I’m glad I’ve found an outlet for my empathy. I guess somehow all those lectures about being nice and caring about other people from my mom sunk in. It didnt take more than once, I guess, even if I gave being snotty another … [Read more…]
Lisa has our next Fun Monday exploration! She says: I’d like to know more about you, what makes you tick. I’d like to know how you started blogging. Did you keep a diary under lock and key safely hidden as a child? Do you still? Do you share the same things on your blog that … [Read more…]
For those of you easily grossed out, skip this one. Okay, so we hear this loud buzzing noise, and look outside. There perched on our patio is a papa redbird pecking at the noise. A locust. It was protesting loudly. And it should have. First one wing, then the other was pecked off and devoured. … [Read more…]

It’s temporary because some lady fell down some stairs and broke her leg. So she’s recovering for at least 2 more weeks. I’m supposed … [Read more…]
Well, here I am through one day of 8 weeks. It wasn’t tough, but I really didn’t get a lunch hour. I got a half an hour, for a lot of the time, I was slurping soup out of a cup while trying to schedule appointments, so I only counted the half hour. However, they … [Read more…]
The otherbear is hosting Fun Monday and wants to know: Share with us a little white lie that you may, or may not, have gotten away with. Perhaps it’s something more sinister than a little white lie – maybe even a deep dark secret that you’ve kept buried for years! All the better! Now’s your … [Read more…]
The weekend was a dud. I didn’t get to use that hard sought swimsuit after all. It was 63 degrees when the cold-blooded among us got in the water. I had to help carry all their crap around for 5 hours. By the time it was actually warm enough to get in the water, the … [Read more…]
hmmm so I took a friends suggestion and looked at Babies R Us online at nursery bedding. Wow! you can’t buy the pieces separate, and the sets are near $200 to over $250 and that seems a little outrageous to me. I am a little disappointed because I saw from Walmart and a brief trip … [Read more…]
