For some strange reason, and despite any indication to the opposite that you all might see via my Facebook page or my Instagram profile, I feel like I haven't taken enough photos of Nathan. Now, granted a lot of this might be due to the fact that he has grown like a beanstalk practically overnig...

Snippet Wednesday 2013.19...
Welcome to an exhausted Snippet Wednesday. Why "exhausted"? I just ran on my lunch break. Although it wasn't as long a run as I would've liked, it still kicked my butt and I'm still in recovery mode. Cemetery In my... Continue reading

I may not be one to blog about celebrities and gossip and whatnot -- well, not too often anyway -- but I do like to talk about TV shows being canceled and new ones that will be starting up in... Continue reading

That did not work as I had expected.
Moderation...
As I reported last week, I'm having issues with commenting on my blog. I spoke with customer service and their answer was to simply log in to my Typepad account and check the spam comments area (which I never knew existed until this convo) and simply approve them. Simple enough, save for two iss...

Glad I listened. I almost walked right by.
ARGHHHH...
First, an apology for the rush of onomatopoeic titles lately. Can't be helped sometimes. Second, WHAT THE BLOODY F$&@ IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE?!?! I'm walking along on my lunch break minding my own business when four high school-aged girls stop me and point to a car parked along the street with a ba...
Thanks, mom.

Only MP3? Wow! Are you not a digital music gal or do you buy from another source?
Tu(n)esday: Nostalgic...
Before I start my post today, I'd like to offer my condolences to the family of Ray Harryhausen who died today at the age of 92. He was the creative mind behind one of my all-time favorite fantasy flicks The Clash of the Titans (the original). He was a visual effects wizard who pioneered "Dynamo...

Wasn't that great?
Chewbacca...
I have no words for this... Oh yes I do! Awesome! Awesome! Awesome! Okay, so it's the same word repeated three times. Sorry, I had another post idea but no time to write it.
No worries. Just glad you've been patient! Thank you.
Comments...
Have you been experiencing issues with comments here on this blog? Yeah, me too. Turns out that the spam filter has gotten so finicky that it's been moderating longtime commenters like Kilax, Marty, and even my own mom and I didn't know it. Heck, it tagged as spam nearly a dozen comment replies...
Snippet Wednesday 2013.18...
Look at this! Snippet Wednesday is alive! Alive, I tell you! Alive! Facebook A couple weeks ago, I got together with an old friend of mine for lunch. When I got there, he looked at me and said, "Do you... Continue reading

That would be a good start.
Ugh...
Several years ago, I promised my grandma that there are some words I would avoid using on my blog. She believes that I'm better than using those words. Nano, please don't read this post. I don't want you to be disappointed in me for what I'm about to say. No, seriously Nano, stop reading. This ...
I'm still trying to figure out what "my thing" is.
Runner zen...
Since I signed up for the Urban Warrior Dash in June, I've been trying to take my training seriously. Sure, I'm only doing a Couch-to-10K app on my iPhone, but I am trying to be good about it by running at least three times a week. And I've been sticking to it for a few weeks now by doing as muc...
Dammit.
GAH...
I missed Snippet Wednesday!!! Not that missing a Snippet Wednesday is an unprecedented thing for me. I've missed them before and I'm sure I'll miss them again. But, when I do miss them, I usually make up for it with a Snippet Thursday: The Reckoning! Can you guess where this is going? Yeah, I mi...
Thanks!
2013 Goals: April Recap...
It's the final day of April and, as you're about to find out, I've had an abysmal month in terms of getting goals done. I will try harder next month. I swear! 1. Convert old site to Typepad No progress. 2. Read the entire run of Kirkman's Invincible I have now read through issue 24 of what I b...

While I wish it didn't have to be such a big deal either, while it is, I'm glad he did. I'll search for that video.
Collins...
"I'm a 34-year-old NBA center. I'm black. And I'm gay." With those few simple words to Sports Illustrated, former Washington Wizards center Jason Collins came out of the closet this morning. Granted, I'd never heard of Collins prior to his coming out, but I certainly know who he is now as do mil...
This world is full of asshats, isn't it?
Snippet Wednesday 2013.14...
Ho hey! Welcome to another Snippet Wednesday! Incest On Easter Sunday, I snapped this picture of Nathan and his cousin Zoey kissing (or what babies interpret as "kissing"). I thought it was cute as did everyone else who was there. Then I posted it to Instagram and got a comment from some jac...
