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

    Well, John from CenterS gave me an assignment. Since he actually read some of my blog posts and took notes (!!), I thought I’d work on this. My assignment was to come up with ten songs that influenced or are important to me. In thinking, I’ve come up with a lot of honorable mentions but… Read more

    Imagine that you’re an ant. You’re working with your colony in the moist dirt. It isn’t raining and newly hatched so there might be a peace to the community. There might be a feeling of harmony as everyone begins to work together for the greater goal of preparation for the queen, the extra mouths to… Read more

    When I was a Wiccan, I associated myself with May First. A.K.A. May Day’. May Day is the celebration of fertility and growth. It’s the symbolic shedding of the cold and listless winter returning to life. It’s often associated with the birth of lambs, children, and dancing around the May Pole. You know – that’s… Read more

    Jason is ill this weekend. I’m not sure what’s wrong outside of a sore throat. He won’t allow a doctor visit – which is understandable. Being the weekend, a doctor would probably be ER and there’s probably not a reason for that level of care. Although hauling him into Kroger or CVS for a quick… Read more

    The world is on a type of fire right now. The word “tariffs” should be on one of those Las Vegas neon signs that tempt drunks with the words “girls girls girls.” No matter where I go or what I do, it’s tariffs, tariffs, tariffs. How much they are. What they will impact. How much… Read more

    Kind of stick with me on this. As I mentioned in the previous post, this week has been against my usual routine of doctors and therapists. I had developed a fairly set routine with going out on Mondays, Wednesdays, and sometimes Tuesdays with Thursdays being ‘clean the house day.’ This week, I had Tuesday and… Read more

    It’s kind of odd being home today and tomorrow. Well, I guess Tuesday and Thursdays are my typical ‘home’ days with Monday being chiro and Wednesday being Centerstone (supposed mental health). But, with everyone becoming pregnant and new employees at the chiro, my routine has been shifted a bit. I’m not sure if it’ll even… Read more

    I think what annoyed me about Liz Wheeler the other day was a combination of a number of things. My foot, recovering from arthritis and having two pens in two toes, hurt horribly. The weather, while trending in the warmer direction, is becoming damp and that’s causing distraction and a type of achiness. Liz’s tone… Read more

    Jason and I was watching the Liz Wheeler show last night. It was her Friday episode and she really kind of cheeped out as she reposted an interview she did with some other organization. It was some sort of empowering mothers anti-abortion group. Okay. Whatever. Most of the time, I find Liz’s voice exceedingly annoying.… Read more

    I just did something potentially crazy…. There was a Fat Con in Seattle early February. Out of morbid curiosity, I skimmed it, particularly the ticket prices and what was included. $1200 for VIP + Plus $600 for VIPAnd a couple of hundred for two days and about a hundred for a single day. It’s been… Read more
