Yes,Dear and I are leaving tomorrow for a weekend at my sister’s vacation trailer. It’s in a small community on a river in Maryland about an hour from our home. With all Yes,Dear’s health problems this year we haven’t had a break and we’ve really been looking forward to a couple of days [...]

Reading Bossy’s excellent post this morning about shopping with her son for his college dorm, I couldn’t help but reminisce about our experiences sending a child off to academia for the first time…more specifically, reading Daughter’s housing contract which made me laugh even as I wondered what our baby was getting into.

Connection
June 11th, 2008 · 6 Comments
There’s a new blog called Improg which twice a week posts a word for bloggers to, well…blog about.
Monday’s word was “Connection”. So I’ve been thinking about the many and various connections we have to each other, to the world, to our neighbors, to our homes, to public water and sewer, etc, and trying to [...]

I’LL give me something to worry about…
May 31st, 2008 · No Comments
As you can see from the previous post, this has not been the best week, so I thought I’d find something else to worry about to take my mind off my legitimate worries. I found this:
SPONTANEOUS HUMAN COMBUSTION
Perfect.
I found the section on Theories about Spontaneous Human Combustion particularly compelling despite the spelling errors. [...]
