Yes, I'm going to hell for my continued overuse of exclamation points, but once again, it's required. I felt my first earthquake this morning! It was a 3.6 quake and epicenter was about 50 miles south. I'm quite surprised how well we felt it here ( Read more... )

The opening shot of In Plain Sight tonight was an aerial view of what looked like an idyllic small town, with houses and churches dotting in the greenery of the trees. I turned to the man and said "Doesn't that look lovely? We should live there ( Read more... )

I tried, but it's like I wasn't really there so I couldn't open the door. It was very weird - I was in the dream and also in my bed having the dream at the same time. It's not like ( Read more... )

Anyone else have a yearly battle with carpenter bees? We get menaced by them all summer long. They have holes bored along the bottom of our railing and they come back to them every spring.
