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… Continue reading The Mirror and Time

Once in a Blue Moon Book Report
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… Continue reading Once in a Blue Moon Book Report
Used To Be Me
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… Continue reading Used To Be Me
A Nap and a Steak
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… Continue reading A Nap and a Steak
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.… Continue reading The Alarm
The Owls
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… Continue reading The Owls
That Time I Ran Over a Kid and His Bicycle
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… Continue reading That Time I Ran Over a Kid and His Bicycle
The Porn Drawer
“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.… Continue reading The Porn Drawer
They Must Have Switched Places
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… Continue reading They Must Have Switched Places
Mandatory Fun
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… Continue reading Mandatory Fun
