Sticky post
Since I began this blog, my goal was to post something every day, Monday – Friday. Except for one (very busy and grandchild-filled) Wednesday, I’ve accomplished that goal. I have found that I have quite a few “Accidentally Human” stories (they seem to never end, so I’ve decided to go ahead and order the bubble-wrap suit, helmet and bedazzled “Fall Risk” jewelry), and I have … Continue reading Bloglettes
So after a night of drinking, the dog woke us up at 2:30 am just in time to crap on the floor as we ran to let her out (she tried…). And no, the dog wasn’t drinking, we were. I only clarify this for the smartasses who will undoubtedly comment. Too awake to fall asleep, I turn on one of my favorite go-to’s, a Warren … Continue reading I’m Sorry Mr Hurt
The largest collection of people with questionable parking skills clearly held a convention in Houston this week. The worst of the worst collectively gathered in the parking garage at St Luke’s Hospital. Chels and I took zero pleasure in seeing them receive parking citations. (I’m totally lying. Those asshats deserved it!) Houston lacks drainage. Drainage wouldn’t help fix the larger problem of crappy drivers. Traffic … Continue reading Tales From The Road

I am happy (and grateful) that I have an understanding boss and a hard-working Assistant … Continue reading The Downside of Happy
I am just one crappy day away from becoming a picture on the side of a milk carton. Continue reading Have You Seen Her?
Lixie, my 11 year old cat, comes bounding into the living room and I think, “Oh look! She’s still a kitten at heart!” She’s making these cute kitten sounds and acting all playful around my feet. I’ve had a rough day, so I slide off the chair and plop down on the floor next to her. “Hey kitty kitty… what’s up?” She meows and purrs … Continue reading Ice Ice Baby
Someone recently told me that I can’t skip chapters. That life doesn’t work that way. I am supposed to read every line, and that I won’t want to read some of it and that some chapters will make me cry for weeks. Uhm… Nope. I’m skipping to the back page and reading it first. Then I’m going back and thumbing through to find money or … Continue reading Fiber
The Spin Doctors are playing “More Than Meets the Ear”, and I am missing you so much it hurts. One of the last things you told me to do before you died was to watch this movie. “Have you seen ‘Waiting’,” you asked, and threw your head back to laugh. I admitted that I had not. “Oh my God, you HAVE to watch it! It … Continue reading More Than
