Changing Old Habits

Before 2001, when I started Whim's Place, every few months I had the overwhelming urge to rearrange my furniture. Now, that need to reorganize has been transferred to the website. I am once again looking at redoing it. I started yesterday by deleting some of the oldest pages. Man, it hurt. I know... Sign in to see full entry.

Conjuring Spirits

I dreamed again last night. Two of the dreams, I remember. The first dream was about conjuring spirits. Apparently if you say a dead person's name over a cell phone, you can bring his spirit back to you. Fancy this. Not all ghost want to be pulled away from their afterlife to waylay our fears of...

Beyond Genealogy

Did you see the Today broadcast about the Genographic Project? In general, the Genographic Project is a new DNA based project that digs deeper than genealogy. It goes back to the original ancestors, and from there is able to tell you the path your ancestors took out of Africa as they migrated to... Sign in to see full entry.

I Will Not Be Bullied

I will not be bullied. There was a time, I may have taken more guff off people than was warranted, but not anymore. I especially will not take back handed BS off some smiling bimbo who thinks she know more than she really does. Ever notice how women tend to bully with a big smile on their face, as...

Get a Clue, You Married a Dumb Ass

This isn't the first time I've kicked myself in the ass for spending ten years of my life in a marriage that I knew was cursed from day one. The ex had The Boy this week. It seemed like a good idea, at the time. The Boy was apt to live longer this way. He left Sunday. On Monday, I began having... Sign in to see full entry.

You're Mumbling

The husband and I can't decide whether the original Willy Wonka or the current Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is the better movie. Personally, I think Johnny Depp nailed his part, and I could never really buy Gene Wilder as spooky. The one thing hubby did get out of C and CF is "You're mumbling."... Sign in to see full entry.

I Don't Wanna

Every have an appointment to keep and you really, really don't want to? Tonight, courtesy of the husband's boss, a salesman is actually going to enter my home and bore me to tears for an hour or so talking about disability insurance, not that the boss intends to pay for it. We get that pleasure. The... Sign in to see full entry.

Cute Baby Story

For the most part, Bailey is potty trained, but she still has an overnight accident once in a while. The last time she had an accident, she came into our bedroom, and when we ask if she peed her bed, she prompt spoke up for herself. "No, Ozwald peed. He peed in my underwear! Bad Ozwald!" So of...

Naked Women in My Bathroom

Let me preface this by stating my master bathroom has a wall of mirrored closet doors. and half a wall mirrored above the sinks. In other words, it is impossible to do anything in the bathroom without seeing your reflection mocking you in the background. In reality, there is only one naked woman who...

Spam the Spammers

I've always joked about spamming the spammers, but lately, it sounds like a damn fine idea. If each of us would send back ten fold the amount of spam as we received, the spammers would be as busy as we are cleaning up our websites and email boxes. They wouldn't have time to send us more crap! I... Sign in to see full entry.
