Did I really get that far behind on my email again?

The weekend has been a fairly disappointing one, as far as normal weekend stuff goes. Lately, I have been doing much more community things but much less with friends around town.

I, of course, scoffed an grumbled under my breath about damn fads taking over the f-in planet. Why do I have to read these dummy notices everywhere. Let them have their own specialty food/ ( Read more... )

Was leaving the Costco today. A balancing act between receipts (you have to get them checked at the door afterall), wallet, basket o' stuff, keys and sample cup of piping hot coffee. I typically carry things around in my mouth, but today I chose the wrong thing . . . the coffee cup. As I started get things sorted out, I pulled the glasses, ( Read more... )
