My sister signed the petition in Massachusetts to overturn gay marriage. I guess she didn't know that this is public information and easily found thanks to the folks at knowthyneighbor.org...

So given this information, how do I torture her?

I'm so ridiculously bored ( Read more... )

Just starting to feel better... was out of work for almost a week with a hellish cold. I don't think I have ever lost my voice before from a cold. It was very dramatic, I sang a few choruses of "It's a Heartache" to anyone who would listen ( Read more... )

I fly to Florida tomorrow with my sweet love for his sister's wedding. Sanibel Island is supposed to be beautiful ... at least when it's not being targeted by a hurricane.

In a few short minutes, I will be thrilled, happy to catch up with Mom over some lunch. A few short minutes after that, I will ( Read more... )

Two weekends of guests wiped me out. For some reason my love and I are always inviting people over to stay ... I guess last summer nobody took us up on it, so we were overdue. My Mom will be the fourth guest in 8 weekends ... she arrives in 10 days. Be afraid, be very afraid ( Read more... )
