Don't live the American dream. Live your dream.

    I actually took Jason’s car to get it washed.   I paid for the deluxe wash that comes with the Rain X, bug protector, and wheel sparkle.  Spent a good half hour vacuuming it, filled it with gas, and Armor-alled it when I got home. That’s not a bad Valentine’s Day present I guess. It’s not… Read more

    I can’t help thinking about the past. There was a time when I refused and couldn’t go anywhere because of all the classwork I had to endure.    I put so much pressure on myself that I permanently altered my psychological and physical state. Now, Jason is plowing through some sort of coding assignment and… Read more

    Well, I’m off to a great start. It’s almost one and I just woke from a three-hour nap.  What’s up with that? I knew I was getting worn out a bit, but just blanking out for multiple hours isn’t my style.   It’s not it was a straight multi-hour nap. I woke up a couple of… Read more

  • Continuation of political ramblings from 1/31

    Thie Iowa Caucus has happened, Not a lot has changed on the Democratic side. Bernie and Pete have emerged the favorites. Not surprising, really.  Warren continues her slow slide backward.   She started out hot, but the unveiling of her healthcare system was a self-inflicted wound. I think the big thing with that is not having… Read more

    I stayed at home today. It was supposed to rain or I thought it was going to rain and it didn’t. I could have gone to the gym but just didn’t for some reason.  Not too sure why.  I’m sure I’d felt better about the pizza tonight if I did. Instead, I did some yard… Read more

    Today is going a little slow…. but I guess that’s good. I’ve vacuumed, scrubbed, and steamed.  The dryer is going – hopefully, to be done soon.  I haven’t gone through every nick and corner of the house, but quite a bit.    I found some unapproved secret not-so kitty litter boxes and cleaned all that… Read more

    Personally, I’d like to know the reasoning behind hiring a firm owned by Hillary to be in charge of the electronic voting in Iowa. Given her past performance with all things electronic, did they think that she’d Windex the computers, Swiffer the floors, and pledge the servers? During her election run, this is the woman… Read more

    What have I learned on this trip so far…. *  I don’t like Raisin Bran, even if it has dried bananas in it. I actually like the bran and banana part of it, but the raisins are just too squishy and have an odd flavor I don’t care for. *  I sincerely miss hanging with… Read more

    Today is odd, but it kind of feels right. We’re not going anywhere today – cept for a pizza run.   Jason has been playing games for most of the day as I have, although I check in on my class from time to time to grade the odd assignment. It’s Superbowl weekend.  I’m either… Read more

  • 1/30 More political ramblings

    I’m being full-on lazy today. It’s just after 12:30 and I’ve napped most of the morning away… which is very much unlike me but it feels pretty good, actually.  I’ve been aching for the past week or so, weather-related I’m guessing, and I’ve been really bad about taking my meds. Yeah, I’ll get a move… Read more
