The Mirror and Time

Filed Under: Book Related

Mirrors are scary things. If you drank a bit too much the night before, you definitely don’t want to see the scary ass reflection that will be staring back at you the next day. Then, there’s that whole Bloody Mary thing and do I even need to describe that game to anyone? Who didn’t play that in ...

Once in a Blue Moon Book Report

Filed Under: Book Related, Reviews/Giveaways

I started on this book just about the second that I got it in from One2One Network but other obligations and life in general has managed to get in the way of me writing my review until now. My opinion of it initially was probably tainted by the fact that I had just come off a ...

Used To Be Me

Filed Under: Uncategorized

Today is probably not the best time to be writing this since I'm sure that if I waited for a couple of weeks, I would have a much more positive spin. However, Tucker chose today to scan in the pictures that I mentioned in the Porn Drawer post and since I have the images on my ...

A Nap and a Steak

Filed Under: Uncategorized

Pretty much the only New Year's Resolution that I remember for this year was that I was going to use this website to better track my moods. There are a couple of problems with that. First, I have a very, very hard time writing when I'm feeling "low". In a way, I guess I could just ...

The Alarm

One of the worst feelings is that of being a prisoner in your own home. [There was some other dribble here but it was specific to TWO nights ago when I was writing this and since I apparently suck at completing blog post right now, I deleted that other stuff and put this in instead. You're ...

The Owls

Filed Under: Life

Our apartment building butts up against a nature preserve. This preserve was a major selling point for us when we looked at the apartment since Cara's room [now Ollie's room] has a great view of the woods and it's almost like we're in a house instead of an apartment. Well...if you ignore all of the noises from ...

That Time I Ran Over a Kid and His Bicycle

Filed Under: Uncategorized

When you're in young and in college, you look for all kinds of ways to make easy money with minimal effort. My best friend knew a guy who was a manager at one of the Papa John's places in town and she just knew that she could get BOTH of us jobs. I needed money to pay ...

The Porn Drawer

Filed Under: Uncategorized

"You're traveling through another dimension, a dimension not only of sight and sound but of mind; a journey into a wondrous land whose boundaries are that of imagination. That's the signpost up ahead — your next stop, the Twilight Zone." We bought our "truck" - that's what we call our SUV - back in 2004. Right after ...

They Must Have Switched Places

Filed Under: Uncategorized

Today, the day of Oliver's make-up one year doctor's appointment, Oliver decided to have a psychological break. Actually, I think that he and his sister did one of those crazy changaroo things like in that horrible movie with Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis where they switch places and all types of zaniness ensues. You know ...

Mandatory Fun

Filed Under: Uncategorized

When I was little - four or five maybe - I would guilt my dad into renting a hotel room at the local Holiday Inn so that I could go swimming in the Holidome[!!!] - you can't write "Holidome" without including several exclamation points. The hotel was a good distraction from staying out in the ...
