I’m ready for Spring, dammit
Happens every year, ‘round this time. Usually in February, so maybe I’m a little early this time. The holidays are over, we only have one more coming up, in February, President’s Day, which is no big thrill but it’s a three-day weekend. So there’s nothing really to look forward to now except for Spring, andContinue reading “I’m ready for Spring, dammit”

I spent the night drifting to sleep with visionsContinue reading “Diary of Madness Day 14”
And don’t call me Shirley
RIP Leslie Nielsen. Amazing, talented, wacky man. You probably think of Airplane, or Naked Gun, but for me, Forbidden Planet is the first thing to come to mind. If you’ve never seen that, get over to Netflix and order it right now. I’ll wait.
To be Thankful For
So, I thought ahead and took this week off from work – which was actually only 3 days of annual, because we get Thanksgiving and the day after anyway, but I had time to use up and I though “Hey, this’ll be fun. I’ll take this week off, and we can play and have funContinue reading “To be Thankful For”
Diary of Madness Day 4
Still no phone call. Mostly we’ve written them off, but we want to believe there’s still hope. I’m on vacation now through Thanksgiving, so we’re determined to enjoy ourselves, even though she has a doctor’s visit on Monday with her oncologist that I’ll have to pay for – don’t wanna even think about how muchContinue reading “Diary of Madness Day 4”
