I had the opportunity to listen to a new Christmas CD, titled Still, by one of our local singer/actors, Jordan Bluth. 
Who was in Blackbeard.  Remember Blackbeard?  The completely awesome, shoulda-gotten-way-more-kudos-than-it-did musical by the insanely talented Rob Gardner, also known as the completely awesome, should-be-known-as-one-of-the-great-prides-of-Arizona?
Please, do yourself a favor and buy this CD.  I am so glad to [...]

WHAT is wrong with my damn feet???
Okay, sorry.  But seriously, this is getting out of control.  None of my shoes are comfortable anymore.  I’m getting blisters in all kinds of places.  My little toe on my left foot is like - I don’t know what the deal is!  Is it turning into some kind of [...]

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 [...]

My New Friend, Wally
I recently made it so that Facebook imports all my blog entries onto my Notes section.  I don’t know if this was a smart idea.  I mean, yes, currently any of my friends can look at my blog if they wanted to, but very few usually do. 
Oh, hell, like anything that unique [...]

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 [...]

Ok, seriously, this is getting ridiculous.  Max was up till ONE-THIRTY last night.
Whyyyyyyy!?
I didn’t even last.  I could only make it till 12 and passed out on the couch, even after consuming a vat of mint chip ice cream (shut up, it was medicinal, I was trying to help myself stay awake).
Conrad didn’t have an [...]

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, [...]

Tonight I’m spending the evening alone with Max.  It’s been lovely.  I got him a balloon, a quesadilla, and a cinnamon roll.  And Play Doh.  He’s been happy as a clam.
He’s getting excited for his birthday.  This is a big deal - it’s the first year he’s had any cognizance of his big day coming [...]

Okay, I think I’m less grumpusy than I have been lately.  I do have these ups and downs. 
Max did the cutest stinking thing last night.  He laboriously gathered all the chairs in our house and arranged them all in a circle in the middle of the room, to imitate the formation of his “social group” [...]

Had one of those lovely stress dreams about school.  I was in an English class I hadn’t been to in weeks.  I couldn’t even remember where I sat.  When another student (”played” by my coworker, Daniel) showed me, I was annoyed that the desk was wobbly.
Before the teacher came in I saw everyone else taking [...]
