I Saw United 93

I watched United 93 the other day. Sometimes the human mind just can't grasp certain things. Like everyone, I knew the outcome, how could I not? Yet, I sat there praying that somehow these people would get control of that plane and land it safely. I wanted to see them reunited with their loved ones,... Sign in to see full entry.

Strange Holiday And Other Stuff

So what is it about Columbus Day? I actually refer to it as the day Columbus got lost and accidentally ended up in America. I have to admit, I am really glad he did get lost so if he must have a Federal holiday that messes everything up, so be it. It's an odd holiday, some schools close; other...

Help Me Understand This

Carl just got his test results back from the Va (he only went in for them in August, not like they are slow or anything). It says his bad cholesterol is fine but his good cholesterol is too low and he should exercise more. Ok this is a man who spends 8 hours a day slinging 3/8" drywall. If you have...

Teenage Boys And My Daughter

As I have said in the past. Teenage boys are evil. Pam came home yesterday and asked me what I did when my boyfriends would tell me to shut up. I suspect my raised eyebrows told her exactly what I would do. "That's what I thought" She told me. "Alex told me to shut up and he knows I am mad at him."... Sign in to see full entry.

This Is Just...EWWWWWWWWWWW

Have you seen the new Baby Alive? Will you buy a doll that poops for your daughter? Sorry, but I am missing the thrill of this newly brought back old toy from my own childhood! Sign in to see full entry.

What Is It About Grown Men And X-Men?

I had to chuckle today as Carl discovered X-men was out on video. he couldn't run to the counter fast enough to check it out. I thought about Talion and how excited he was that the movie was coming to theatres just a couple of months ago. So what is it about normally well adjusted, responsible grown...

Technology UGH

I think I am back. it's been a crazy couple of weeks as I have been working and dealing with life in general to make matters worse just as I was able to slow down, my net went down for three days. So here is a quick catch up. Dealt with Carl's crazy sister who decided to mess with my child and scare... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm Back....Sort Of

I'm fighting off the tail end of the flu that Carl gave me and hopefully will begin recovering from the in-laws visit as soon as they leave in the morning. Too much has happened to even begin to go into and being I am still a bit worn from this stupid flu I don't have the energy discuss it.... Sign in to see full entry.

Checking In

Just wanted to let everyone know I am alive and kicking. I am working like a crazy person, so by the end of the day, I don't really feel like writing more because my eyes are crossing, my fingers hurt and I am usually so tired, I end up drooling on the keyboard. Add to that, the in-laws are here.... Sign in to see full entry.

The 4th Plane

Between what has been on TV and the memorial service I attended this evening I am irritated as can be. American Airlines flight 77 had 64 people on board and the Pentagon had 125 people lost on September 11, 2001. For some reason this group of people seem to be an after thought for many. The Twin... Sign in to see full entry.
