I know women are known (or at least are stereo-typed) as generally being ‘shoe people’ – thank you, MS. Marcos. When it comes to purses, shoes, jewelry even, I tend to be on the conservative side, I guess. I have just a few pairs of shoes – one for each practical use- i.e. boots for…

What’s Cool, Who’s a Fool
(as opposed to ‘what’s hot, what’s not’) Cool………… a twentysomething metalhead that has the heart to do something different and phone everyone he loves on his birthday to make up for his lack of organization at remembering to phone his loved ones on their birthdays. Fool………… someone who on their journal, or otherwise, thinks that…
Doe on the Bumper
Last night we watched some of the “Blue Collar Comedy Tour”:http://www.bluecollarcomedytour.com , I think it was part 2, with friends. “Bill Engvall”:http://www.billengvall.com was taking about deer, and he mentioned something to the effect that if they’d just make bullets shaped liked mini-vans and put headlights on them, that deer would run right in front of…
Take a moment for peace
In honor of Martin Luther King, I’m taking a moment to be thankful for the strides we’ve made, and also for the strides we have yet to make. _We’ve come a long way baby_ in the fight for freedom, civil rights, and getting things done the non-violent way, but we still have steps to make.…
Naive. Ignorant. Stupid.
What’s the difference? Is there any good to any degree of naivity? When does it cross the line of stupid? Is naive just not knowing? Ignorant not learning? Stupid not choosing to know or learn? It’s all give and take. All relationships. Especially the more important ones. Can you give too much? Take too much?…
Oh, so overwhelmed
It’s not a new thing. I’m just so overwhelmed. I feel like I have too much on my plate, as usual, and I just can’t keep up with ANYTHING. “I don’t know how you do it”, they say, well I don’t either, because in reality I don’t feel like I do. Everything is behind, a…
I’m dreaming …… of a white, Christmas!
Well, I just heard on the news awhile ago that while normally our area boasts a near 20% chance, normally, of a white Christmas, this year our odds are improving, and it stands, at the moment, that we have a 50/50 shot at a white Christmas. Here’s hoping! I still have somewhat mixed feelings, since…
Holiday Candy
Just a thought………. could it possibly be that one of the major contributing factors to the fact that people gain weight during the month of December be the number of chocolate commercials shown???
Aurora?
Well, it seems that you can see some form of the Aurora Borealis here, rarely, and I did! It was about a week ago, and it was eerie, almost looked like clouds, these strange streaks in the sky, and they kind of moved, like a rainbow does, as I was driving along. Now I came…
Leaf-Sucker-Mondays
We have been inundated with leaves in the yard – so much so that they have been a foot deep at times, before we get the chance to rake them. One cool thing about living in town ( that I will hopefully miss someday – living in the country ) is leaf-sucker-Monday. Every Monday guys…
