I was in my car today, driving past all the packed bars, filled with St. Paddy’s celebrations, and it got me thinking. First, I thought about wanting a beer. But a) I was on my way to my volunteer gig with animals. And b) no thank you for amateur day shenanigans. I’m a pretty loud […]

Who dresses their cats in dog sweaters?
We do!! Although we only put Piper and Tabitha in the sweater since Quinny would freak the f out and Milo’s an old guy so the best way to torture him is by holding him against his will until he growls a whole bunch and hisses at us. This takes about eight seconds and is […]
Uncommon Encounter
When I was twelve, I visited a Native American museum in Taos, NM. On one wall was a circle of wood. On it, written in a spiral that culminated in a crude print of a dragonfly, was a description of the role that dragonflies played in the lives of warriors of this tribe. I wish […]
Tiny Flier
I am going through the huge process of organizing my photos and I came across one that I meant to post. Hell, I’ve meant to post a ton of stuff but man have I been busy. I took a trip to the train station a month ago (?) and I noticed at stop lights that […]
Colin Hay
A couple of months ago, Rachel texted me and told me to listen to Colin Hay’s song “Maggie.” I went to YouTube, searched for it and found a video. I then bookmarked it and never found the time to watch it (lame). Tonight at the theatre, we had Colin Hay. What a phenomenal show that […]

Hair Today, Gone Today
Being the erratic spontaneous wack job that I am, I decided at work yesterday that I wanted to chop my hair off. I discussed it a bit with my splendid co-workers and it was decided. I called the hair salon and made an appointment with my stylist, who is brilliant with my hair. I went […]
Getting My Nerd On
So, it’s been a good four years since I actually spent time on this blog. A blip in 2006 and then nada. There are times when I try to come back and nothing comes out. When I last posted though, I was immersed in Dave Barry’s blog; it being a daily visit. Last night at […]
Yes, it does
Today sucks. That’s about all that I have to share. Yesterday sucked too. This weekend? Not so much with the sucking, or at all, but since it’s so long of a story, I’m not sure I have the energy to write out the whole the entry, all I’ll say is Beetle Mania, bike enthusiasts – […]
