One Down, 50 to go!
Now that I'm receiving photos from the Spirit of '76, as my high school class was known, it's easy to tell now, or at least superficially judge, who has had a "nice, comfortable" life and who has suffered from some of life's harsher lessons. More than one of my former classmates is in law...

High School Crush Emails Me
When I saw her name in the email address, my heart skipped a beat. For those that don't know, I'm producing a dvd movie for my 30th high school reunion. I've been receiving photos from people I haven't seen in over 30 years. None of my closest friends back then have elected to participate, which...

On a Roll!
Hot damn! Three approvals today, three more in the pipeline for tomorrow, and John saved the Koehler deal by writing the land owner a $3,000 check. If that deal goes through, I'll garner a $10,000 commission. Thanksgiving in Hawaii is looking like a real possibility! Eldest Daughter asked if she...

Where's Marcus?
Our backyard neighbors have been hounding us to "do something together," so after weeks of putting them off, we agreed to meet them for dinner last night. It's the least I can do after our stupid dogs have destroyed their fence. They wanted to go down to the little Italian Cafe down the street, but...

My Baby's Daddy????
Why in the world would you leave your baby, your child, your life, with a crackhead? Better half says I was so mad that my eyes were bulging out of their sockets and I was foaming at the mouth. Janelle said she could hear me upstairs. I thought I was having a normal conversation. Eldest Daughter...

No Sign of Larry!
I've been thinking about Larry's disappearance and am wondering if maybe it is best he's found another home. There's LOTS of families with kids in the neighborhood, and it is quite possible he wandered up to him in his friendly way and they've taken him in. We're going to check the area pounds...

I'm Feel Like Crying! My Dog's Gone ....
Call me a big pussy, I don't care. I'm sitting here in my office about to burst into tears because my dog busted out of the yard last night and hasn't been seen since. Larry, like all of our pets, was a stray. I found Larry, a beautiful Corgi, in the parking lot of the warehouse where I used to work...

Sad Case
Received a call from disabled man looking for a place to live. I told him I really couldn't help him, we had no empty rentals, but he showed up at my office anyway, telling me he'd just been evicted and needed a place to stay. Before his accident, he said he had a 680 credit score, which is pretty...

What Is This *&(^$? James can't make a decent cup of coffee!
Caffienne and nicotine are two staples of a salesman's diet. I'm part of the new breed of mobile home salesmen. I don't chain-smoke and I limit myself to two or three cups of Starbucks coffee a week. The other salesmen, however, are hard-core coffee drinkers. The sneer at me for spending four bucks...

Reunion Thoughts!
When I volunteered to do a "that was then, this is now" DVD for our classes' 30th year reunion, I wasn't sure if I was going to attend, or if I would take Better Half and Girl Genius with me. I don't keep in touch with anyone, much less high school "pals," so if I didn't attend it wouldn't affect me...
