I like walks on the wild side and coffee. Lots of coffee. Warning: My Muse runs with scissors.

Getting Home

It was a dark and rainy morning. Actually, it IS a dark and rainy morning. A massive and unpredicted (as of the 10 o’clock news/weather last night) storm rumbled through at 5:00 this morning. Almost an inch of rain fell … Continue reading

Ha! I should have started doing these twenty at a time because the first item on today’s list relates to #40. And iPods. And how I should get one–which I did, but then lost it. And I’m halfway through the … Continue reading
