A Dear One

See you at the OC Fair!

We made our first pilgrimage to the OC Fair this year. It’s not really anything to write home about, just good old homespun fun. Maybe the fair is a little more nostalgic for me since I come from ag country, where everyone raised 4H animals and sold them at the fair. But it was nice…

Odd, but True

Sometimes you just see something odd. This morning I saw a car in the parking garage with all of its windows down, but all of its doors closed. There was a briefcase on the ground beside the passenger rear tire. There was a half-full bag of dog food on the roof of the car. There…

Biopsy

I have an odd rash type thing on my left shin. I’ve had it for a few months now. It doesn’t itch, or grow, or spread to other spots. Basically, it just looks odd. So I finally got myself to a doctor to take a look and he said I should go to a dermatologist.…

Earthquake 2008

Her widowed father, the Captain, asks that all arrangements be made for her comfort, since they are very close and have never before been…

Shower Gifts

Shopping for a bridal shower or baby shower gift has changed somewhat over the past few years. I, for one, like the advent of the registry in that it supposedly eliminates totally useless gifts and duplicates. However, it does tend to take some of the fun out of gift shopping. I love knowing that someone…

Hire a Band

This would fall in to the “my two cents” category…if you are having an event with a live band, they should play mostly covers. I’m not talking about a concert, but an event where there happens to be music, dancing and general merriment. The crowd is much more likely to get into the mood if…

"The shoes, right?"

I have issues with shoes. It’s tough times finding ones that fit my feet well and are comfortable. I need shoes of the “wide” variety and I need arch support. I’ve been trying to find new shoes for a while now. Nothing special, just a good pair of tennis shoes that are comfy and cute.…

In Bloom Desktop

Well, thanks to another gorgeous photo from our dear EmDash, I’ve made a new desktop image. I’ve actually had this one on my desktop for a few months now. It’s cheaper than fresh flowers and quite uplifting. You can download it here: emsTulipsDesktop.jpg
