Most excellent slight breeze
I'm in a coffee shop again. I guess its been a year since I posted here and in that time the majority of my blog posts on my OTHER blog have been from coffee shops. This one [Herkimer Coffee] has really bad music playing and the speaker is too close to me and soy milk foam doesn't taste as good as the milk from cows so I am a bit grumpy. Plus, ( Read more... ) -
Rusty like spring

The tooth fairy visits Sarth AFrica.
We are playing 20 questions. Frost is the one "thinking of something." We have trouble figuring it out. It turns out that it is the tooth fairy and we have been misled by his logic. According to Frost "the tooth fairy is a mineral, the size of your hand and comes into every home in Seattle ( Read more... ) -
Fingernails
Recently, my fingernails have been growing. Its weird, my nails do this every now and again - strong and long and hard. Most of the time they are brittle and do not grow well ( Read more... ) -
Political versus civil violence - ghosts of the African night
This morning I went out to the farmer's market and left Frost (5) at home with Daddy (30) asleep. As always I told Frost not to open the door for anyone without waking Josh ( Read more... )
