Trying to post via itouch. Let's see how this works.
I thought to post today because I: 1. realize I haven't seen my lj-posting neighbor lately and was curious what was going on with her and 2. have free time.
The latter is actually pretty amazing. Summer classes (specifically microbiology) is kicking my butt. Class is really amazing and ( Read more... ) -
Patty from the past
My best friend from kindergarten in New Jersey found me on Facebook last night. I moved away from New Jersey when I was 11, and we would occasionally write, even less occasionally call. Once when I went back for a cousin's wedding (1992) I saw her. I don't know that I have talked to her since then, 17 years ago ( Read more... ) -
Chickity China, the chinese chicken
One final week of summer vacation. As with each summer, it flew by too quickly, helped along by multiple trips away from the house and across the US - a long drive to Louisiana, slow drive along the Gulf Coast, short cruise in the Gulf, and then a long trip to Northern Calilfornia and San Francisco. It was a great summer ( Read more... ) -
I know I know....
An extended break is often made longer, quite inadvertently, by the feeling that someone (lets just say, ME) has to post something pretty spectacular for a come back. I'd rather be 1990's John Travolta than say, Chevy Chase.
And so one month becomes two months which becomes first quarter, and before you know it five months have passed and still ( Read more... ) -

8:50am on a Sunday morning. I'm sleepy from staying up too late - not by choice, just happened. Finally took an Advil PM at 3am I think. Will was also awake, from a toothache. Poor guy has had more issues with his teeth lately. He needs a root canal ( Read more... ) -

Ok, so I get that it's only January 12th, but I have been working really hard on my resolutions for the last 11 days.

1. One load of laundry a day. Check! With the exception of Sunday ( Read more... ) -
Haven't done one of these in years

Resolutionary
I woke up very early New Years Day (which was really about 3 hours after I went to bed). My dad always told me to spend New Year's Day in the manner in which you hope to spend the rest of the year. Which means I will probably wake up still tipsy from many bottles of champagne every day for the next year. And spend the afternoons of 2009 sitting ( Read more... ) -
Synopsis
It turns out that I'm really NOT that efficient. I can either work (not even FULL-TIME, more like three-quarter time) and maintain the house, or maintain the house and write this blog. Can't seem to do all three. Can't even do two half the time. I have NO time today but I have got to update this thing before the end of the year.
Synopsis of the ( Read more... )
