The weekend, the west wing and halloween party?

I had a nice weekend. Saturday morning I spent getting caught up with email and my website stuff. Around noon I gave my friend Nita a call to see if she wanted to hang out, it had been a while and we’ve both had a rough month. Nita picked me up around 1 and we […]

Trip to New England

Under the circumstances it was a good trip up to New England. While on the trip, the subject of this blog came up a few times. How several family members read it and talk about it when they get together. Before we left, someone said “I can’t wait to read what she writes about this […]

Home again

We got home this evening around 8pm. All is well, but Caligula missed us a lot (thanks again for checking on him while we were gone!). But I’m exhausted and it’s time for bed. I will do a real update this weekend, I have a lot to think about. I also want to get out […]

The Trip

Trip plans are finalized (it’s about time!). Tomorrow we’re leaving around 9AM for Salem, Mass. We’re taking the longer, scenic way to avoid New Jersey and NYC (it’s worth the extra ~$10 in gas). If all goes according to plan we should arrive there around 5 or 6 pm. Salem is where my cousin lives. […]

The weekend and planning trip to NH

I spoke with my supervisor and HR this morning, I’m entitled to 3 days bereavement time off, which I’ll be using Wednesday-Friday so we can drive up for the memorial service on Thursday. This has worked out well, with the weekend I’ll have a total of 5 days in a row for this so we’re […]

My Grandfather

“The graveyards are full of indispensable men.” -Charles de Gaulle And now they gain another. My grandfather passed away this morning, he had been ill for a few months. According to my cousin he was ready. He was happy that family was making plans to come up, even if they weren’t able to make it […]

WnG & related website stats

I had such a great time last night. It’s always hard to see a movie after you’ve built up these fantastic expectations for it over multiple years, but I have to say that Wallace and Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit didn’t disappoint! I’ll get around to writing a more in-depth review tomorrow. We met […]

Wallace and Gromit: Curse of the Were-Rabbit opens today in US

I can’t begin to describe how excited I am. I’ve waited for this for years! Ever since I saw that first WnG movie back in 1995 and fell in love I’ve wanted them to grace the silver screen. And now I get my wish! Today! OMG! GLEE!!!!!! IT’S HERE!! Screw Star Wars, this is the […]

Writer’s Block

Everything I’ve attempted writing since Monday hasn’t come out right. Including this. Sometimes I can’t stop writing and I’m constantly thinking about how I’ll word things, but this week is not like that. I hate these slumps. It takes me 10 minutes to form a sentence and it’s still not right. Yup, just staring at […]
