EARTHQUAKE!!!!!
No poop. We have survived our first earthquake (well, one that was actually FELT) here in Central PA. Shortly after midnight (I was watching an episode of Paranormal State that I got for Christmas, KT was at work) the house shook like a train had passed underneath. I was sufficiently spooked to press pause, and listened for sirens. Surely ( Read more... ) -
Circut City is the new Best Buy...and that ain't a good thing!
How much do I hate giant electronic whore box stores?
Where, oh where, do I begin?
We need a new DVD player. The one I have is over 7 years old (dinosaur by today's standards). We have tried cleaning it with a special disc cleaner, it still skips. We have smudged it with sage, it is still possessed. We have offered it blood, it is only eating ( Read more... ) -
Mabon
So, another Autumnal Equinox has come and gone. I love the Fall. I love the cooler weather, the leaves changing colors, the crisp smell in the air. I love to watch the cycles of life, even if that means that part of the cycle is dying ( Read more... ) -
Out & Equal
Well, I am back from the 2008 Out & Equal Summit, which was in Austin, TX. Had a great time, and learned a lot, too. I am sure once I have a few days to digest it all I can post thoughts here. Highlights were hearing Kate Clinton and Arianna Huffington speak live. I want to be them when I grow up ( Read more... ) -
Fresh coat of paint
What is it about clearing the decks, turing on some kick-ass music, and paiting a room that is so satisfying? I went to Home Depot three times. I took paint chips home, set them up, rejected them, fished them out of the trash, reconsidered, went back to HD for more...and FINALLY settled on colors for my home office. I waited for pay day and ( Read more... ) -

Facing the courtyard
Here I am again, the good old Normandy Farm Hotel and Conference Center in bucolic Blue Bell, PA. This time I got a room that faces the courtyard. They have put the tables and umbrellas out. It might be Spring after all.
I am told that many weddings happen here in the Spring. I doubt that I will see any on a Monday or Tuesday, but they ( Read more... ) -
Main Line Rain
My hotel window opens about 2 inches. It is just enough to let in the fresh night air, which is currently scented with rain. I am in Blue Bell again. Only 13 more weeks of this routine to go ( Read more... ) -
Normandy Farms
I am in a hotel, on my laptop, in Blue Bell PA. I feel trendy once again (it's a whole computer liberation/I can use the internet thing). The hotel is really nice, swanky, even, and I have had a really good day at work. I miss home, and the smile of my honey, but this place is nice and not hard to adjust to. Just glad I don't have to be here ( Read more... ) -
