Seriously, this happens in my life. It’s pretty much the best thing that’s happened to me since, well, since my doctor told me all those headaches I was getting were actually atypical migraines and that caffeine would help. Have I mentioned how much I despise milk? Unless of course you hand me an ooey-gooey brownie.…

I’ve been without a kitchen for a week and a half and things are not going well. The kitchen is coming along just fine. I am not going well. I am seriously getting desperate. I need a peanut butter pie. It’s practically a health food with all that protein in it. And I believe in…

This is what the parents kitchen currently looks like. It’s going to be beautiful when it’s done. Until then, eating is a rather difficult proposition. The parents are taking it in a stride. Mostly they just don’t eat. I thought it was pretty humorous a few years ago when McDonald’s started serving oatmeal for breakfast.…

Perfect for little boys. Kelly Belly and I, we got skills.

However, remembering the Donner Party always makes me laugh a bit at myself. When I was a child I suffered from a humorous misunderstanding. We learned…

The other day I went to Barnes and Noble. I haven’t set foot in a bookstore in I don’t know how long. Part of trying to be fiscally responsible. Books are definitely wants, not needs, and fall under extraneous purchasing. Particularly since I have an awesome library within biking distance. I was given an amex…

I placed my first online order for fabric. I was very, very nervous. I wanted to see my fabric, feel it, look at the colors all lined up. Physical stores didn’t have the fabric I was looking for. Really, I had no other choice. The online fabric store has a 30-day return policy, and will…

This is happening.I’ve been looking forward to Shakespeare in the Park for nearly a year and it’s finally here! Remember when I went to Othello last year? It was awesome. They do a fantastic job and the plays are accessible to anyone. I did a lengthy group report on A Midsummer Night’s Dream in college…
