I have things to say and this is where I'll say them.

Only in My World…

Only in my world would this statement be part of a normal conversation:   “like when your baby’s head pops off it’s body when you’re watching tv. “

I Still Love Ray Stevens

This guy has been making great songs since I was a teenager.

National Taco Day?

I had no idea that there’s a National Taco Day.  On behalf of my niece, Rachel, I’d like to know if there’s a National Enchilada Day, too.

It’s Raining!!

As I’m writing this, it’s been raining steadily for about three hours.  What a wonderful sight and sound!  I love when it rains anyway, but even more so after this terrible hot and dry summer.  We didn’t break the record for the most 100+ degree days in a row, but we did break the 1980 [...]

Alphabetical Keyboards

While searching for a left-handed keyboard for Hubby, I found something that is either new or it’s been hiding from me.  This is an alphabetical keyboard.  Instead of being in the QWERTY format that formally educated typists (like me) use, this keyboard arranges the keys in alphabetical order, which is perfect for hunt-and-peckers.

Mediocre Service

Hubby and I were dining at one of our favorite restaurants recently and I decided to try something new and different. I watch Hell’s Kitchen and Master Chef and they often use salmon in their fancy dishes. I realized that the only salmon I’ve had came from a can and was formed into patties. So, [...]

Summertime in Texas

This is the time when I do my annual rant about how much I hate Texas in the summertime.  I hate it so much.  I’m not an outdoors person and the heat is just grueling.  I stay in as much as possible, but even then it’s miserable just going to the mailbox or walking into [...]

Honda Came Knocking

A couple of days ago, I got a phone call from my Honda Dealer.  They want to buy my Civic and sell me a new car.  It was a sales gimmick, but I’ll consider it.  Heh.  He said they need more used cars on the lot because they mostly got cleaned out during the Cash [...]

Loss of a Special Friend

My hairdresser died yesterday.  That probably doesn’t sound like much, but Debbie was special.  I met her for the first time in 1977 when I was 17.  She gave me a Farrah cut.  It was the beginning of a lasting friendship.  Until Debbie got sick with cancer almost three years ago, she was the only [...]
