Are Wiley and Kabu MIA??

I've been waiting to hear the 'next chapter' from Wiley and Kabu, checking every day... and sending them my best thoughts! Has anyone heard anything? Kabu must be really jet lagged; arriving in a new country can be overwhelming! Sign in to see full entry.

If you are into Linguistics...

Due to the climate of political correctness now pervading America, Kentuckians, Tennesseans and West Virginians will no longer be referred to as "HILLBILLIES." You must now refer to them as APPALACHIAN-AMERICANS. And furthermore HOW TO SPEAK ABOUT WOMEN AND BE POLITICALLY CORRECT: 1 She is not a... Sign in to see full entry.

Hair color adventure...

Today I just HAD to do it... get rid of the gray, that is, in my blonde hair. Gray and blonde is not a good combination! It ends up looking really mousey and washed out. My hair guy dyed it back to my original rather caramel blonde color and then added highlights. Cool!!! We went to see the movie,... Sign in to see full entry.

Garrison Keillor had it right...

I listen to Garrison Keillor a lot- after all, he writes his stories from the part of Minnesota that I grew up in. Last weekend, I caught my favorite, 'News from Lake Wobegone' and he had an interesting monologue.. it was about crying. He said one has to cry regularly, or else the tears would build...

Working to avoid that 'stop the world' feeling...

I'm getting that 'stop the world I want to get off...' feeling again. You know-- that too busy for any peace of mind kind of thing... but now I am aware of it and am consciously working to enjoy the spaces in between. As we are entering this 'holiday' (oh no, did I really say that word???!!) season,... Sign in to see full entry.

Hell Explained by a Chemistry Student...

HELL EXPLAINED BY A CHEMISTRY STUDENT The following is an actual question given on a University of Washington chemistry mid term.

Things always get better...

... sooner or later, don't they? I heard a radio report today, on my favorite radio station, NPR, about a soldier who 'single- handedly' cheered up a whole hospital with his jokes. He actually only had one hand left- all his other appendages were gone. It was so inspiring! I have all my digits and... Sign in to see full entry.

BOO! (...and the 'unwelcome blanket)

I have had quite enough 'boo' for now, thank you very much- these fires have left me smoke damaged and pretty doggone tired. I'm thinking PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder)- kind of... anyway... something changes inside of you when you see huge wildfires, racing down a hill towards your house....

Oxygen

Well.. the open window thing was short-lived again. I woke up in the middle of the night, smelling smoke, lungs hurting, so I got up and shut the windows and turned on the A/C. I guess the winds shifted around to blow more of that awful smoke our way and it probably will be like this for at least... Sign in to see full entry.
