As Frank reminded me this morning, one month from today we'll be en route to Atlanta for the 3 Red Sox-Braves games. In all the years I've lived in Charlotte, I've never been to Atlanta, even though it's only about 4 hours away. I've been to DC several times, as well as the part of VA where Ryan lives, and Florida, all places that are an even ( Read more... )

So, has anyone done anything stupid today? If so, you're in luck, because I can tell you about my morning and it will make whatever you did seem a lot less dumb ( Read more... )

I've felt very blah and tired all weekend. Yesterday when I left for the HRC Gala Committee meeting, Frank had a terrible headache and didn't feel well. On my my way home I called and asked if he needed anything, and he wanted a chocolate milkshake, so I stopped at Cook Out and got milkshakes, plus some hush puppies and a corn dog. I came home, ( Read more... )

It's another one of those Sunday nights where I feel like I should update my LJ, but nothing really inspires me ( Read more... )

So, yes, it was the battery, pretty much dead. The AAA tech arrived about 65 minutes after I called, so the wait was just about what the lady on the phone said it would be. He was nice, though, he said I had 2 options, he could give me a jump to get me home, but to replace it within 1-2 days, or he could sell me a battery from his van, but they ( Read more... )

I left work, planning to grab dinner somewhere and go to the Pride meeting. I have a headache, but I was still going to the meeting because the last one was postponed due to weather, and I missed the one before that. So I haven't been to one since the last meeting before xmas, sometime in early December, probably. Frank was also supposed to go ( Read more... )

Actually, I've been back for a few days, just haven't been on the computer much. We drove down on Sunday, didn't have too much traffic other than some of that really annoying "slowdown for no apparent reason" between Savannah and Jax. Then we took a different route than I had taken the last time I drove down there 5 years ago. You get off I-10 ( Read more... )

This is my temporary Big Love user icon. I have an idea for the one I want to make, but I just never feel like taking the time to do it. This one is cute, but the picture just doesn't really show up this small. I thought the caption would be funny. Anyway, I'm so excited the season has started, and it looks like there's lots of good stuff coming ( Read more... )

One time I described myself as "child-free, drama-free, and debt-free." Then I bought my townhouse, so I took on a mortgage, but that's what a lot of people consider acceptable debt. And my mortgage is so small compared to most others. But then again, so is my house. When I moved in, I needed furniture. I got rid of the 2 old couches I had, and ( Read more... )

Yay, it's finally Friday. This has been a busy week. Most evenings when I'm home I am working on Pride stuff- adding people to the MySpace, sending our e-mails, whatever. Tuesday night I went to the Sting game. I was tired, and had an all-day headache, but went anyway just to get some fliers handed out. Once I got there I felt a lot better and ( Read more... )
