I haven’t been out of town recently so it was about that time again.  On Saturday morning I got up early and headed up to Charlotte, N.C. for the wedding of my friend Linda to her love Tom.   Now, I had never met Tom before but everyone with whom I talked said he was just […]

Well, good morning dear readers!
 
I got to work unnaturally early this morning but am actually awake.   There’s a reason for this.  Is there a difference between really really liking coffee and being addicted to it?  Because I am on cup #4 right now but I never thought I was addicted, just someone who’s always thought […]

When did THIS happen? :

15% Niacin, Vitamin B6, Vitamin B12; 10% Magnesium and Zinc

I got it because it intrigued me….but if we’re gonna be honest, I’m a little afraid.

One of the most successful weekends ever (at least where it comes to cleaning up the yard!)…. planting a potted veggie garden, hosing down the back deck, scrubbing walls, getting the ‘brella all shaken off and back up again….  Now that we’re all set, who wants to come over for a cook-out?  :-)
 

I was just reading a friend’s blog where he mentioned taxes.  And since it was in the subject line, it read: Taxes.  I had to glance twice because it looked like another scary, scary word.
 
Taxes  Texas  
 
Methinks my irrational fear is starting to become more valid!

I am STARVING this morning. I guess eating 5 jalapeño poppers at the bar last night just doesn’t really cut it as dinner, huh?    Bless my little cow-orkers: they’ve just walked across the street for Waffle House for me!
 
And because sales is taking us all to lunch today at Ippolitios, where I will gorge on something […]

So, anyone who has a blog has to deal with spam….and most of the time it’s caught before it becomes a comment.
One of my “caught” spams was for a pharmaceutical (sp?) drug, naturally.  But it also said, in the subject “selling” line, something like: Xanax? Tape Worm?
Huh.  Okay, I know tape worms are supposed to […]

Last night, about 7:30-8pm, the call came over from 70 year-old Miss Stella across the street.  There’d been a shooting in the neighborhood, only one street over; a street connected by only another little perpendicular street.
 
We ran around franctically, loading guns, locking doors and pulling all blinds but the ones over the batcave where we could have […]

I just booked a work flight to Texas.
I have one full month to conquer my fear….
 
Who’s got drugs for me? 

* Coffeemate is sending me a free 7-day trial of creamer.  I hope they realize I drink about 5 cups a day.  Let’s see them try to do that math.   Oh, and if they really loved me, they’d send me the coffee to go with.  But I reckon that’s just getting greedy now.  You, too, […]
