I woke up this morning feeling all sorts of congestion and unpleasantness.  This can only mean one thing: allergy season has commenced.  In my hazy stupor, I made the bright decision to take some allergy medication and the next thing I know: it is six hours later and the workday is nearly half over ( Read more... )

As you can surmise from my subject title, things are going quite swimmingly these days. Even though work keeps me busy, I’m still enjoying the job immensely and I continue to count my blessings daily ( Read more... )

Women who possess big eyes, full lips, and a developed bust line tend to have men fall over themselves to open doors and take them out to dinner. Men who have striking features and a six-pack tend to have women who’d work themselves silly to be subservient and ( Read more... )
