Not today. I know it’s Flashback Friday. I even had a photograph picked out. I can see it from where I’m sitting. Today was just one of those days, and I just don’t wanna.
It’s Friday, and as you well know if you’ve been my friend on Facebook for any period of time, I LOVE Fridays…

Two things this past weekend. One, the Olympics are officially over, which leaves us at a loss for what to do with our time. Even if it was over the television, it was nice to come together as a family over something every day for two whole weeks straight! We’re bummed it’s over. My husband…

Shocking is the first word that comes to mind. My husband’s lone uncle has passed. We knew that it was coming, probably since Tuesday, although maybe we hadn’t accepted the fact. Maybe we were the last to give up on the thought that he would pull through. Maybe we had heated discussions (amongst ourselves), thinking…

Peeps!!! My LAST post was my 100th post! Shit, I have to pull myself together. There’s no excuse for missing my very own milestone.
It’s been a winter wonderland here in the great white North, er, I mean the Chicagoland area. We’ve gotten inches of snow so far and everything is fricking cold, and white, and…

I guess it’s time that I face the fact that I will not be hugging on Paul McCartney this Christmas time. Damn. All I can say is that 93.1 WXRT rocks for sending me the two disc set (which also included a DVD of the live concert in New York City) and that they made…

Today I made a difficult phone call. I called a family member who is in the hospital. I haven’t spoken to him in a LONG time. Maybe a couple of years, save a 2 minute phone call I’d rather forget and uncomfortable exchange at Christmas Eve last year. Ok, that’s a bit dishonest. That’s how…

That when I had my car repaired after the little accident that we also had the cracked windshield replaced? At an additional charge, of course. Have I also mentioned ever since this little repair that if it so much as HINTS of rain my car develops a splash opportunity right there in the foot-well of my vehicle?…

Today was a pisser. First off, I burned my tongue severely on my first sip of coffee this morning. Add to that, it was a cold and grey and rainy day. It actually hailed today where I was at. I have a window cubicle, so I can see the weather while I’m working, and between…

The weather around here leaves a bit to be desired sometimes. Yesterday it was beautiful, and today it is gloomy, windy fall in Chicago. I wouldn’t worry so much about it except I am at home feeling somewhat miserable from the oncoming seasons. I normally don’t complain about illness and discomfort, but it’s hit me…

This is my punishment for making them come shopping with me. I turn away from them for a second, and this is what goes on behind my back. Do not for one minute think that this is an isolated incident.
