Just spending a pleasant afternoon relaxing after a long week completing final homeworks...yesterday was Earth Day, yeeeee-ha! I called my parents and sang "Happy Earth Day to you" to each of them. Good stuff. And in the late afternoon despues de some Paper Mario, Aurora and I went to Tom Brown to celebrate. I climbed a tree, and then we ( Read more... )

I found this list in a national geographic article about Beulah Annan, the real-life murderess who was the inspiration for the musical "Chicago" (google search: Beulah Annan). Enjoy! (I think spifflicated, ossified, and struggle-buggy deserve a second chance; oh, and now we know the origin of the band name "Less Than Jake". Yay ( Read more... )

It's time. I've been putting you off too long, because I've been afraid I wouldn't find the right words, or maybe just because it was easier not to have to think about it. But no more ( Read more... )

Here I was thinking even with all the polls, that the country was going to make a better decision...that Americans were not going to believe the lies when they walked to the polling places, that their hearts would guide them.

Ok, so really Charley came thru Chesapeake about the same way Earl went thru Tallasleepy in fall of '98...like a cup of tea. We got some stronger-than-usual winds and some heavy rain, but nothing any worse than a good afternoon thunderstorm in Tally. Anyway, I'm here in Virginia and I've had a good time so far. Doodles, my little gray mama-cat, ( Read more... )

So nothing much has happened between the last time I updated this journal and now...oh wait, actually, a whole LOT has happened, but I've been a bonehead and failed to write about it! Let's see, there was my birthday, that was just a few days after the last update, and Aurora's birthday, and our one year anniversary, and graduation, and figuring ( Read more... )

Well, I meant to type "Hello World", but it's too apt a mistake to make to take it back. Heehee! What a beautiful night, yes indeed! And all the world is mello-yello...Aurora and I went to Esposito's a little while ago and I found myself in a transfixed state. I can't believe the restorative powers a garden holds! Ahhhh. And now here I am ( Read more... )
