I just read an article that explains the names of Nicole Kidman/Keith Urban's daughter and Matthew McConaughey's son.Remember how we all read that insane story about how Matthew wanted to do what his brother did and name his kid after his favorite beer? Fine, when his bro's favorite beer is Miller Lite (the kid's name … Continue reading There IS a God!

4th of July is goin’ to the dogs!
I have become one of "those" people. I'm buying our dogs t-shirts to wear tomorrow. No, they won't be dressed up every day, but this is a fun holiday and it's their first one with us, so I think it'll be fun for them to wear 4th of July t-shirts! I'm going to try to … Continue reading 4th of July is goin’ to the dogs!
How do I love thee? Let me count the (very specific) ways…
Chocolate and I have a bit of a love/hate relationship. It plays out in various forms, but only one thing truly remains constant. I do not like plain chocolate. Not even a little bit.I have a bag of misc. chocolate in my desk that I sometimes put in my candy basket to share with co-workers. … Continue reading How do I love thee?

So if you’re pyschologically normal, then call me back….
Just when you think you can guess something about someone, they go and turn you all topsy-turvy.Case and point: my brother has long had a fascination and adoration for Asian women (and Asian people in general), so when he told us that he was going to move to Japan after graduation to teach, we all … Continue reading So if you’re pyschologically normal, then call me back….
"If the minimum wasn’t acceptable it wouldn’t be called the minimum."

No one even knows what it means anymore….
There's a group in South Carolina that's getting all bent out of shape about a specialty license plate there. Before I go too much further, I should note that this is NOT intended to be a blog with religious slants at all.

Well, I’m a wanderer, yes, a wanderer
Reasons I know I like to travel too much:I'm actually considering taking Todd and me to Cozumel (one of our honeymoon cruise stops) for our one-year anniversary. Trust me. I know this is total madness. Sort of. I mean, it's only about $1500 for the entire thing...hotel, flight, ground trans and the whole thing is … Continue reading Well, I’m a wanderer, yes, a wanderer

It had to happen sooner or later
But damn. I want my long hair back. Crap. It's going to take a while to get it back where I want it and there's always the inevitable "awkward" stage of the hair-growing saga. I don't regret cutting my hair, not in the least. But I'm over the short hair. I miss being able to … Continue reading It had to happen sooner or later
