Public Transportation
I love taking public transportation. Not for the reasons you may think. Sure it is great to be able to sit back and read a book, something you probably shouldn’t do while driving a vehicle. It is nice to not have to worry about traffic lights, other drivers, or the speed limit. It is delightful … Read more
Broken Seashells
Today started off well enough. Vanille let me sleep, we said goodbye to Jake, and went for our two mile jog. The only eventful thing that happened on our walk was two aggressive dogs (same yard) charged the fence as we passed giving both Vanille and I a good scare. If I hadn’t had a … Read more

Why my family and friends ROCK!
I think it goes without saying, I have been depressed about being downsized out of my job. Fortunately for me, my family and friends are making this transitional period (transitional period sounds way cooler than unemployment) much more bearable. I’m so grateful I have such wonderful family and friends.
Queen Megan and the BAD Day!
Today has been a no good, very bad, rotten day! Well, it actually started yesterday. I had nightmares. I’m not talking about my normal run of the mill “Cookie Monster is trying to eat my brain” nightmares.
