Concert Characters
Free tickets to a Bad Religion concert makes for a very interesting evening. There were definately some interesting people in attendance, including the 2 couples that were pushing infants in strollers through the skate park. Hrm. Some random quotes from the evening: – “Just take the skateboards and give me the baby!”– “When is the…

FrontlinePlus or Advantix
Most dogs need flea meds, and the ones in the grocery store are useless (at least in my experience). So I started our little pooch on FrontlinePlus from the time she was about 8 months old. Then I changed vets and the new vet carried Advantix, so we switched. Perhaps in the 6 years that…

Canker Sores..ouch!
I have always been plagued with canker sores. (For anyone that may not be as blessed as I am, canker sores are almost any sore you get on the mucous membranes of your mouth. They are white-ish craters and hurt like hell.) I have tried many rememdies for these in the past, like: rinsing with…

Figs!
Tonight while we were at the Farmer’s Market, the hubby asked if I was going to get any fruits and veggies. I said I’d go look, but I wasn’t planning on buying anything. As it turns out, the produce was so unbelievable that I had to buy some. First were the plump and firm grapes,…

Half a dozen.
Six years ago today, my husband and I said our “I-do”s and I think it was the best decision I ever made. I am quite lucky to have found the perfect person for me. I love you, babe. Looking forward to 99 more great years 🙂

I got my stitches out from my biposy yesterday. (All good news by the way, nothing serious.) I signed in, they called me back and then came the dreaded words, “Okay, now we just need to get your weight. Please step on the scale.” I just have to say, what the hell? I was at…

Mahna Mahna
Because of my husband’s love for Cake (the band, not the dessert), I have been re-introduced to the wonders of Mahna-Mahna. Which we now say intermittently all day long. So please enjoy this video: Or if you want to sample the Cake version: http://www.last.fm/music/Cake/_/Mahna,+Mahna

Online vs IRL
I was thinking today about how the internet has changed our relationships with our friends. Today we found out that another of our favorite baristas (she’s the 5th) will be leaving our Starbucks. I had this odd panic, that these people are leaving and we’ll never see them again. Which lead me to examine the…

Here’s Your Sign
The hubby and I took on a new project and made a sign this weekend. It was a fun project, with a bit of a learning curve. In the end though, the problem-solving of a new and different type of project was an invigorating challenge for the both of us. I do also like to…

Onlay
I’ve been getting some dental work done, a bit at a time. Last week they put in my first onlay. While my mouth has had some trials throughout my life, I’ve never had a crown or an onlay. Apparently, an onlay is a permanant filling, one whole piece, molded out of porcelain or the like.…
