I’ve been hemming and hawing at a post for the end of 2009/beginning of 2010 since, well…the last week of 2009. 2009 sucked balls. 2008 sucked balls and if I have to totally honest with myself, the entire decade of aughts sucked balls. But, who wants to read a post about sucking balls? [...]
Reprinted from my Live Journal, as dated December 20, 2008. More thoughts at the end of the post.
Pasta what?
Pusties? Pasties? Do you mean pastries? What are you talking about?
This was my end of a conversation I had with Lisa 5+ years ago when I went to her home to help her do [...]
I do NOT have time to be posting this now, but I just have to.
While digging through the kids’ tree box to find all of Abby’s ornaments so she can hang them on her own tree at the apartment, I found something that took my breath away.
I means nothing to anyone else. In [...]
But, I have a really good excuse. It’s Anthony Bourdain’s fault. And, some oddball criminal that lives in Mindy’s neighborhood.
I’m too tired for details, but it goes like this.
Dinner at a new Mexican joint. Yum. (Nathan, we need to go some time soon) Seated at a table with calla lilies in [...]
My typical Wordless Wednesday has been derailed today. Today, I need words.
Today, on this Wednesday, there’s a lady in Atlanta, Georgia that has taken over my brain. A lady I have never met. A lady I have never even spoken to outside of light, silly banter now and again on Twitter. [...]
One of the things I appreciated most about my friendship with Lisa was that we had a history together. For those unaware, we met in 6th grade, a union of two girls from two different elementary schools whose daddies worked in the same division for the government. I still remember the first day of [...]
The eighth in the Letters to Lisa series.
Lisa-
God, I want to talk to you in person so damned desperately. So.damned.desperately. So much is going on and I want to sit over a plate of spinach & artichoke dip and tell you. I want to see your eyeballs pop out of your [...]
The seventh in the Letters to Lisa series of posts. For new readers, Abby and Ethan are my children. Nathan is Abby’s sweetheart and an integral part of our family.
Lisa-
Wow! Two weeks since I’ve written! I’d like to say it’s because all is awesome, but honestly, I’m finding myself more debilitated. Our fridge [...]
The sixth in the Letters to Lisa series of posts. My Aunt Betty, who also died from complications of diabetes, and Lisa have a connection?? Aunt Betty passed 37 years ago and, of course, Lisa had never met her…until now.
Lisa-
Okay, now I’m just confused. I take it you’ve met my Aunt Betty? [...]
The fifth in the Letters to Lisa series of posts.
Lisa-
It’s amazing the things you learn about the heart of others when you share your own heart with them. I finally spilled about your death to any friends/family on myspace that hadn’t possibly heard already. Announcing more, since few or none of them knew you, [...]
