To Grandmother’s House We Go

Wednesday, November 30th, 2005

I had wanted to write something nice for Thanksgiving last week.. Something all warm and fuzzy about the holidays of my childhood, bringing back the memories of frosty mornings and the smell of spice in the air.

The Dolly Lummox

Monday, November 28th, 2005

I was feeling a little restless over the holiday weekend. Feeling like I needed to be around people. A couple of my close friends were tied up with other things, so I decided to go out on the town on my own to have some fun and put myself “out there” again. I never have [...]

Wednesday, November 2nd, 2005

So, I’m in line at the market last night and rip out a pretty big sneeze. Normally I’m not a big sneezer. I don’t know if it’s self-consciousness about the size of my nose or what, but I try to be as quiet as possible when I sneeze. (Sort of like a heavy person who [...]

What Happens On Halloween…

Tuesday, November 1st, 2005

Halloween is a lot like Las Vegas: on the one hand, promises of fun and flash. On the other hand, a chance to do some things you’d rather forget. Take this picture of the hosts of the Today Show, for example. I got a feeling they will regret this bit of dress-up in a few [...]
