This weekend was really weird. It started off Friday morning when I was asked to work on my day off (now I am working like 12 days in a row). Later, I went to the game night that I previously described (in my newly repaired automobile..l brake problems) where I learned that some friends were […]

I’m not entirely sure if I have posted on this event that happened about 25 years ago, but it stands out as one of those unforgettable experiences that will stay with my family forever. It will definitely be passed on to at least the next generation. It just happened to come up at work today

Last night, I spent a few hours at one of my favorite places to play some games. I must say that The Office DVD Trivia Challenge is a BLAST. I may have come in a distant third with 5 Schrute Bucks, but it was fun nonetheless. I will have to start rewatching episodes Tuesday nights

On the cover of our extremely late newspaper this evening (inserts for Black Friday sales, but really the store did not get their supply until after 6.30) there was an article detailing various peoples mishaps in the kitchen. Invariably, this causes my mind to wander to two incidents that I have heard tell about time
WOW… One month from today is one of the most perfect nights of the year… better get started. I’m sure I can fill my blog with many a holiday tale by then. This one was prompted by an email that was sent to me which I forward to a bunch of people. A list of

Tonight a group of friends and I went to support a theatre family member who is part of her high school swing/show choir (and her beaming papa as well). I won’t delve too deeply on the performance, but will say that one of the songs deeply touched me. I know I have mentioned the beautiful

I know that the baseball season has ended and legions of Cubbies fans are still mourning the playoff showing (not trying to rub it in; honestly, there is a point to this madness). Tonight at work, I was chatting with a friend and customer whose daughter lives in Chicago. I told him that some of

Not so sure about the life part but the reality definitely. I got back from Toledo Airport around 2 Thursday afternoon. I was back at work at noon on Friday. While there for my NINE HOUR SHIFT in which I was dressed in pants and long-sleeve shirt, I had the (mis)pleasure of purchasing a bottled

It has been just over a week since Emily’s memorial service; however, I had to include one of the most emotional moments. A soloist sang a song that I knew that I had to know but at the time could not remember from where. It was THAT powerful. While listening to my library of songs
Ok… today (all right, yesterday) was the second annual Theatre Softball Game/Picnic. When I arrived, I saw people decorating the pavilion where we were to meet decorating for a birthday party. Unfortunately, the sheet that claimed our group’s rental had fallen off. However after the offer was made to share the space, the birthday revelers
