OOOPS. My Bad

Is blogging over? I mean, do people still read them now with Facebook? I do have some readers who do keep me on my toes (hello, and thank you, Melody and Randy), but it seems most people have ceased to check out their favorite blogs on a daily basis (not that my blog was probably anybody’s […]

It’s Like Being 6 All Over Again

Don’t ask me how, but I’ve managed to develop an ear infection. Isn’t that a bug only kids get? Leave it to me to develop one…and I’ve not even been in the presence of children in months.  Randy returned from his trip to Austin last night. Something, probably the snow, delayed his flight so he didn’t […]

Return to Normalcy

I’m really craving a return to normalcy in my life. First we have the snow. Oh, the snow. I was excited about the first storm. I do love a nice storm and the 18.5 inches we got in Arlington made for some pretty sights. But then it remained cold and it didn’t melt. And two […]

Half Way There

There are so many things in my life right now that are partially complete: 1 – My cold. I think the worst of it is over. It’s been a full week and a half since my first sniffle. I generally feel better, but i’m surprised at the amount of phlegm that still, um, dislodges itself […]

A New Year Rant

Oh dear – my blog is off to a stellar start this year. First I dont’ blog until the 7th day, and now when I do it’s to bitch about something. I really don’t have an excuse for not blogging. After Christmas and the day after the blizzard, Randy and I drove down to New […]

I Simply Can’t Be Trusted

I’m a huge planner. Aside from sitting on my ass watching TV while surfing the net, my other big hobby is planning travel. Not a week goes by that I’m not trying to find the best options to go someplace. Ideally, someplace new. We’ve already got a few trips planned in the near future – […]

Inspired by Joan Rivers

Ok, Joan Rivers inspired me. I’m in a ranting sort of mood today so I’m going to get all non-PC on your ass. You’ve been warned. 1 – WTF were they thinking with the extension of the tax cuts? That’s not a compromise, that’s stupidity. Yeah, yeah, yeah – times are tough and people are […]

Nothing Says Christmas Like People Running Through the Streets in Speedos

Continuing what has become a pattern, I had another busy weekend. On Friday night a bunch of us got together and saw Joan Rivers at the Wilbur Theatre. I hadn’t been there in years (7?) when I saw Dame Edna perform there. At the time, the theatre was a standard live theatre with audience seating. […]

Can We Talk?

What an exciting week! I got hit by a bus on my way to work yesterday. Well, I was inside the bus at the time. You see, I’d boarded the bus and was walking toward the back. As I was about to sit down the driver gunned the accelerator. I suppose I lurched further toward the […]

I Missed You So Much I’m Sick Over It

Wow – it’s almost a full week since I’ve blogged. 2010 sure hasn’t been a banner year for my blogging consistency, has it? Perhaps I need some internet Metamucil to get me more regular. I had a great night reuniting with Randy after his Virginia trip last Monday. We met up in Davis Square and spontaneously […]
