Oh well.... at least I have a few days
Can I just say there is nothing MORE FUN than being sick during a holiday. Yesterday while cooking, I couldn't help but notice that I had the chills, body aches and generally felt crappy. I popped some Advil and took a nap before he chills went away. I thought I had beat this wimpy illness. I enjoyed stuffing myself silly ( Read more... ) -
Delurks for the snark

Happy Friday
Last Friday was fun... my sister and I went to see Penn & Teller. We saw them in Las Vegas a long time ago (ten years or more). It was fun, they did a few tricks I remember from the Vegas act... the only annoying thing was a woman a few rows back saying loudly, "Oh my God! Ronnie did you see that?

I don't get it off obviously but...
Happy Canada Day!
Y'all. ^__~ Actually today is the only day I'm working this week. Funny how getting up this morning was so easy. Not going anywhere, just killing off some vacation time. -

Wow... rulings all over the place
I'm going to say it... there are times when I cringe about the things my state does politically. Yes, I live in one of the rare patches of Liberal Democratic blue in the vast ocean of Conservative Republican red. But I was humbled and amazed at the reaction of people who came to the State Capital to witness Sen. Wendy Davis of Fort Worth filibuster ( Read more... )
