  • Al Went Home for the Holidays

    and all I got was this lousy guest entry Y’all, I was in the car for 12 hours yesterday. Creeping across the Southeast in the rain, ice, sleet and snow, just like the US Postal Service, except I’m fairly certain no postman, even on his longest route would ever dream of putting on a performance…

    the first christmas

    success and turkey Reason #903 to keep a journal: You nice people sent me cards and presents and made me feel less alone this holiday. Thanks for that. One of the best gifts we got this year was from Eric’s mom: a digital camera attachment for the Visor Handspring. You just hold up your Handspring…

  • not a creature was stirring

    well, except for a couple Reason #759 to keep a journal: You never know when you’re going to stick in someone’s head. Yesterday morning I got an email from Athena. She wanted to know if I was serious about looking for a Playstation 2. Turns out she had been on a couple of waiting lists…

  • food fight

    a world of cooks in my kitchen So, this is interesting. I have found out that if you look pathetic and lonely you get all sorts of cooking advice. Keep that in mind for the future, people. It’s quite handy. I have seen the panic in people’s eyes when I say, “Yeah, I don’t know.…

  • Dear Santa

    hope it’s not too late Dear Santa, I almost didn’t write to you this year. It’s not that I’ve been particularly naughty or anything, it’s just that I wasn’t feeling particularly Christmas-y this year. You see, every year in my entire life I’ve spent Christmas Day with my family. And this year, I can’t do…

  • so scary, so cute

    excuses and cars I’ll give all of the excuses first. They’re good ones. I’ve missed like, two weeks now of real entries. I know. I’m sorry. I just… first of all, it kinda feels like I’m on Christmas vacation. It’s colder out, and I’m watching bad videos while I write Christmas Cards or online shop,…

  • I Best Recognize

    not too late I don’t think it’s too late to do this. In fact, it’s what I’ve been thinking about for the past few days. I’m thankful that I got to go home this past weekend. I’m thankful that not only I got to spend time with my family, I also got to spend time…

  • thank you

    I wanted to make a special thank you to everyone who sent their holiday tidings this year.  In addition to the many holiday cards that are taped to my living room wall, we received several presents in the mail.  Your thank you card is on it’s way, but this is a little bit faster.

  • the aftermath

    the happy headache Wow. We opened mad presents yesterday, yo. I’m typing this wearing my new Melty t-shirt that Eric bought for me. It’s so happy and pretty and I love it so. I keep going back to this site to check out my new gift (which will be here in six to eight weeks).…

  • very loud sound

    things that go poot in the night I don’t know when I’ll be able to update tomorrow, or if. I’ll be on the road for most of the morning, and then, you know, family and stuff. I’ll see what I can do. Last night Cal was making an insane amount of noise running around and…
