Gee
Long time no blog. Ten weeks according to LJ.
Nothing exciting going on that someone else can't blog about.
I am schlepping Halloween stuff for 2-1/2 more weeks. Fifty percent off sale starting Nov. 1.
Yeah, like I said, nothing real exciting. -
Pride and Prejudice and Zombies
I think every book should receive this sort of treatment.
It is freakin' (yes, I would use the real word) HILARIOUS! I recommend it to everyone.
And I am just in Chapter 12.

(Untitled)
Maybe I should have thought about it when I made the plans, but spending 6 hours in an airport will never become a favored destination.
Hotel check out was at noon. I was able to get a reprieve to noon-thirty, big deal. So I checked out early. Just to keep ‘em off balance. I also saw there was an earlier flight, so I took a shot. I really didn ( Read more... ) -
The Rest of the Trip (probably longer)
Sunday - Parker Family day. I met MH and Jim at Dad's house. On the way I saw that B&N was having a 50% off clearance sale. Made a mental note and went on.
Dad is as well as can be expected for an 87yo man. With his bypass surgery, his heart won't poop out any time soon. His body, otherwise, is showing signs of wear. His ratio of lucid to non-lucid ( Read more... ) -
The Party's Over (Long)
For now....
Welp, here's the rest of The Story.
Saturday - I had all sorts of plans to go to FW before The Event, but nah. Met BB and PG at the hotel for a warm-up beverage. We talk more and more and more. We drove over to The Event. Peg and I discover we didn't have name tags. Apparently, we didn't rsvp at the correct site. So we made our own. I, ( Read more... ) -
Happy Hour
All angst bets are off! I had a great time, therefore, wearing the bra was worth it.
I was able to use the hotel printer for the directions. Yay! Because I knew that writing all that down would have caused more trauma than I needed.
I forgot that downtown FW is all one way streets. And wouldn't you know that the one street I decide to head down the ( Read more... ) -
Lunch
I just got back from a five-hour lunch with my collge roomie, BB. She has remained the fabulous woman I remember her being.
I got up at 9:31, having just missed teh complimentary hot breakfast by ONE MINUTE. OK, the caps are not needed as I made no effort whatsoever to make it downstairs to even plead a case.
I made a pot of coffee. I haven't made ( Read more... ) -
Day 1
I am here, next door to the all-night FedEx Depot. Actually it's not too bad. The room is bigger than I thought. It has a kitchen too. No silverware, plates or cookware, but a fridge is good.
The day started early. We were up at 6. Got out of the house by 6:30 and over to Totem for breakfast with the family. We got cash, ice and gas a little further ( Read more... ) -
Off on an Adventure
So no Texas for baseball, but I did agree to Texas for a 30yr high school reunion. MY 30-yr hs reunion.
Many complex feelings going on. But thanks to Brian, I'll just be charming.
But I do hope I don't walk in and blurt, "Who are all these old people?"
