If you get the chance, you should watch “Lost Twin Cities” as produced by TPT (Local PBS). I had recorded it a while back and watched it last night – it was really quite interesting, especially for a transplant to the area who didn’t necessarily know much if any of the history. Did …keep reading
You’ll never guess what I didn’t do last night. I didn’t do it today, either. Wanna know, huh huh? I didn’t write my paper that’s due tomorrow. Ha! And I’m not gonna tonight, either. So there. Such a slacker, I am. Well, not exactly. I mean, …keep reading
My employee health newsletter (which is not published by my agency, but purchased and passed around for our general well-being) is usually not helpful to me, and occasionally laughable. Like last month, when the helpful tip was that I should go outside for 15 minutes every day between 11 and 2, even if it’s …keep reading

Yeah… not really that much to say. I have been incredibly productive at home this week, which is probably why I don’t have much to say. I finished the curtains for ’s bedroom finally – her birthday present (yes, her birthday was in August). I got almost everything on my “to …keep reading
**Yes, I totally stole that pic from one of the blogs I read today, but I’m way too lazy to check which one it was. But I didn’t steal bandwidth, just the image. Promise.

I forgot to mention that, for kicks, I tried on a skirt last night at Macy’s that was too short and quite hideous (think orange and green plaid flannel, with a belt). There was a moment in the dressing room, while threatened to get my camera, that and I wrestled with the …keep reading
The BBC brought to my attention an article entitled, “Pakistan votes to amend rape laws.” I was interested, since I think that in the Muslim-controlled countries the rules concerning women and sex are ridiculous, including getting lashes for “adultery” if you don’t have 4 male witnesses to a rape. Who wants witnesses to …keep reading
I was looking through old photographs last night – finally started to fix the content of the picture frames that I hung up over the fireplace a while back. It’s really amazing the power that a photograph can have. I found the scrapbook that my last church gave me as a parting gift, …keep reading
- Name two things you love about the city/town you live in: I love that it’s a large city with a neighborhood feel, residential and mid-size-town like, but with all the amenities of the major metropolitan area that we are. I also love… well, I just really like my neighborhood. I’ve been here …keep reading

There’s one of those “Do” posters in the stairwell at St Paul College that mocks me every Monday and Wednesday morning. I always take the stairs to class, which happens to be on the 4th floor, and the floors are particularly tall – it’s a double flight of stairs to each level. So …keep reading
While over at the Dating Dummy, I was referred to this article on “Guidelines for Platonic Friendship.” While you all know my opinion about sex outside of marriage… this is very funny. I liked it. In fact, it was almost helpful, if I 1) had any guy friends, or 2)… um… see …keep reading
Test scores are in from Monday’s test, you know, the one that I wasn’t in such a swell mood about. 94%. Which means that I still have a 98% in the class, not including the extra credit paper. Feel free to hate me, because right now, I am that person in the …keep reading
