My answering machine (yes, I am that old) has three messages blinking on it. They've been there for a while (the oldest is from September of 2010 or 2011) and I have yet to listen to at least two of them. I may have listened to the third but I don't want to listen to any of them so they are just there at all times reminding me that I need to get ( Read more... )

As I've posted before in this journal, my grandfather (Papa - see corresponding tag) was the center of my childhood. I wanted to be exactly like him ( Read more... )

So, they are opening up Last Chance Idol over at therealljidol. Since I had a good time competing in this last contest (until I was eliminated), I'm thinking about going for it. However, if I do this I'm really going to need people to vote for me. Lack of votes was my undoing earlier and I don't want to wash out again because of it (especially since the entry I ( Read more... )

Now, to explain about what happened at The Phoenix. We went to see their current production, "Miles and Ellie". We were running late but managed to grab two seats up front (my preferred seating area) sharing a table with a very nice lady ( Read more... )
