Who knew it meant *inside* Charlie G’s?
 
As usual, the Tuesday night gang headed out, over and up to meet at Charlie G’s for a bit of Trivia.  Not only were we ready to out-smart the competition: we were ready to out-snack them!  With $110 in bar cash burning holes in our collective pocket, we had […]

Today be talk like a pirate day!    I, however, will not be talking much like a pirate — or rather, much at all — in that I left my phone at home.  

I feel I should be freaking out a little bit here, but right now I’m pretty calm about it all.   I reckon no […]

This time I tried the Northside Drive-ish/West Paces Ferry Caribou.  It was much more easy to navigate off and back on I-75 than I had thought it was going to be.  A couple things did strike me as odd me being old.

Okay, it’s over a week away, but I’m marking my calendar now…. books, refreshments, giveaways, spitting distance to Graveyard?  Sounds like a good time to me! 
 
Bound To Be Read Books in East Atlanta Village celebrates its second anniversary this month and will feature a full week of special events and festivities. The neighborhood independent bookstore opened in […]

So I had a creepy dream last night.  I dreamt that I was napping/sleeping out in a cemetery and trying to explain to others (I can’t remember who was with me) the pattern of how the bodies probably laid under the ground.  With the utmost authoritative reasoning, I pointed out the plots in alignment to […]
