The Courtesy Jog

Ever been in your car and had to slow down for a pedestrian and the person you so courteously slowed down for does a little courtesy jog, just to show he or she is grateful?  It’s funny, but it sort of closes the deal, doesn’t it?  You slow, he/she exaggeratedly jogs across the road and [...]

New People

I have moved approximately ninety million times.  I have attended fourteen different schools in my endeavours towards scholastic brilliance.  I moved 21 different times in Anchorage, Alaska, each one a new neighborhood, new children, new people.  Alaska is just one of the many states I’ve lived in.  I am very used to new people. 
So why is [...]

Be careful what you wish for…

I wished for some adventure.  I should have been more specific.

  
This is not nearly as exciting as bleach spots.  This is a whole new world.  A kaleidoscope of opportunity. 
 
Anyone ever tried to get melted crayons out of clothing?

Ode to Laundry

Ode to Laundry
Oh you pile of filth
I see you mocking me
Taunting me as you grow
Didn’t I just wash you?
Your collection of grime and slime
It’s repulsive to my nose
You boast of freshness
Only to waft odorous tendrils after a day of wear
I must brave the stench
Touching each aromatic article
Unfolding arms and legs
Removing loose prizes I claim for [...]

Friday meme

Just for kicks, I thought I’d find a good meme to do today.  I don’t like heavy thinking on Fridays, it’s too delicious of a day to waste on philosophy or drama.  I did a search on memes and found this website called Friday Fun which offers different memes for bloggers.  What a cool idea!
So [...]

The Women

You know your life is too busy when you have to squeeze in a date on an unromantic Wednesday night.  But that’s our life right now, so I’m not complaining.
After a quick bite at Steak Out, we went to see The Women, starring Meg Ryan, Annette Bening, Debra Messing, Jada Pinket-Smith and Candice Bergen.  There [...]

Now that I’ve lost all male readership…

Because let’s be honest-any time you write the words “PMS” and “period” in the same paragraph, anyone with testosterone as the majority hormone is going to skip on to ESPN or watch a scene from “Braveheart”, just to cleanse their eyes.
PMS-Kearsie is gone.  I crammed enough chocolate in her yesterday to keep her sedated.  She’s [...]

She’s here

Who’s here?  Is it the Queen of England?  Is it Meg Ryan?  Is it a long lost family member?
No.  It’s PMS-Kearsie. 
She’s a real drag.  She’s full of sarcasm and mean wit.  Normally that brings a laugh, but these days, she’s just cruel.  She wants to throw things, she wants to slam doors.  She’s just waiting [...]

All about me

Getting to know you…getting to know all about you….
So I got to thinking, I know all about me, and as I spill my guts on these cyber pages, you get to know me too, but there’s so many of you out there that I don’t really know.  And I really want to. 
I’ve always kind of [...]
