If I could upload pictures, which I still am not able to do because of some glitch I’m not smart enough to work around at the moment, I would put up a picture of my button I got yesterday. It says, “I Survived My First Bikram Yoga Class!”
Insert the word “barely” somewhere in there.
I get [...]

I feel the need for speed.
I’m SO frustrated with falling asleep at 9:30 every night.
I don’t WANT to fall asleep at 9:30. It’s the last thing I want. Max usually goes to sleep around 9, and I desperately want that adult time. Either to do unglamorous tasks like take the garbage out or do the [...]

Max is home sick today. :( Doesn’t seem too bad, though, but he did have a fever and was up much of the night. I’ve been up since 4!
At work now but I’ll probably head home this afternoon to help spell Conrad.
I’m royally pissed because I just FINALLY got a chance to write a new [...]

There’s some kind of film over the skyline today. The view from our office isn’t too bad - you can see the mountains in the distance - but today they’re half obscured by some kind of mist. Is it smog? I wonder if there’s a pollution advisory today.
Paranormal Activity - the last time I talk [...]

Here’s my latest Examiner article, about Seven Brides for Seven Brothers at Hale Centre Theatre.
Today went so fast at work! At one point during the afternoon I was momentarily confused, looking at the clock, because I felt like it was still morning.
I feel really good. For so long I’ve let my house - hell, my [...]

Last night we got together with a couple friends before seeing “Seven Brides for Seven Brothers” at Hale. Strangely written show. Hale always does a good job though.
But yeah. One of our friends had been in the hospital with a health problem but is doing better now, so we met up with them.
It was really [...]

It was a fantastic weekend over here in my world.
Friday night Conrad went to a football game and I hung out with Max. He was being so sweet, it was unbelievable. We snuggled and watched boxing (I really don’t mind so much watching his stuff over and over if I have gossip magazines to read, [...]

I rarely get writer’s block. Sometimes I get stuck on deciding WHAT to write about, because I’m not feeling passionate about anything at the moment. But if I have a designated topic, even if I’m not passionate about it, I usually don’t have a problem once I get going. I’m not saying I never get [...]

Today, Conrad and I have been married for 8 years.
You get married and people say, “It’s going to be work. You have to stay on top of the romance. You have to communicate, forgive each other, be each other’s best friend.”
If only that were all it was!
Getting married was like stepping onto a bumper car [...]

I haven’t been able to hike this week so far because on Sunday I scraped my foot on a cactus leaving my dad’s house. It’s really bad! I haven’t been able to wear closed shoes because they hurt too much. I think I’ll be over it by tomorrow though. Stupid thing. Practically sliced me down [...]
