In which my site’s beginning to generate email. Today I got two emails from random people who had found my site (I’m getting about 13k hits a month this year) and had something to say about what they’d read. The first was from a guy who also rocks himself to sleep, and wanted to know […]

In which the Universe is really funny. Ha, ha. We’ve accepted this gig in Indiana, right? Leaving the day after tomorrow, yeah? So naturally in the past three hours, Bread’s gotten two job offers. One for production building in Colorado for a good friend, another for a comprehensive remodel of a high-end house here in […]

In which there is sex, band practice, pizza, napping, cheese dreams, swimming, tanning, and a very flat goddamned tire. The day after our impromptu BBQ/wedding anniversary, I slept in. (All that vodka, yo.) Got up, put on a bikini. It was hot, windy, blustery. Pushing ninety degrees. I wandered up to the pond. Put my […]

In which a tragedy is averted by the judicious application of a skirt. This baby just now got caught between the panes of one of the windows in my home office and fluttered for awhile. I lowered the window as much as I could, hoping it would be able to get out, but it couldn’t. […]

In which driving along can be fun. And informative! We drove past this sign yesterday and loved it so much we had to go back and get a picture of it. “Give Satan an inch and he will become a ruler.” A ruler! Think on it! Good thing for those roadside signs or I’d surely […]

In which I tell you about my weekend. Friday night I called Bread when I left the office and he was at his mom’s. I went there, and all three of us went over to the Dew Drop. I ended up sitting and chatting with my MIL for a couple of hours; it was a […]

In which it’s freaking gorgeous outside! These flowers smell like grape Kool-aid. I don’t know how they do it, but they do. They might be my favorite flowers in the entire world. They grow at the foot of a tree near our house, and every May we walk by them and smell them and every […]

In which nothing really happens. I may have given up on the brown theme. I love it, but I really need three columns and I couldn’t make those cute fucking tabs work in Internet Exploder. This plaintxtBlog theme, however? Love it! It supports Widgets, which I hadn’t played with before but am now deeply in […]

In which I work too damned close to Mi-T-Mart. I just went next door to the convenience store — it’s entirely too close, not even thirty paces from the front door of my building — and I bought a Mocha Frappuccino and a package of Hostess Ding Dongs. Then I consumed them at my desk […]

In which I’m boring. Got off work last night, picked up some drive-thru, and went home. Bread and I ate at the picnic table outside and he showed me the tear in his jeans and the small scratch on his thigh where he’d not cut off his leg with a chainsaw. Jesus. He’d trimmed the […]
