Second Try

Tuesday, May 31st, 2005

Since I had to drop some things off for Jameson I decided that I’d try again for a pair of shoes. After all, my hair looked good, so maybe that would make shoes look better too …? Okay. Not very sound logic. But it’s my logic. So there.

Shopping

Tuesday, May 31st, 2005

I attempted to shop today.

I went to Oakridge, thinking to avoid the overwhelming size of Valley Fair. (I find that the [...]

But I say grace before the play and the opera,

(I found this at A Circle [...]

Ticket the darn thing, of course!
But some chickens get off the hook.

RIDGECREST, Calif. - A chicken that got a ticket for crossing the road has clawed his way out of it. The $54 citation for impeding traffic was dismissed Friday after Linc and Helena Moore’s attorney argued that the [...]

That Darn Bass

Saturday, May 28th, 2005

I’m being bombarded by our neighbor’s music. I’m sure he isn’t even aware of it; I went outside and it really isn’t all that loud. It’s just that the bass comes into our family room loud and strong. I think it vibrates through the floor. What a nuisance.
So I’ve cranked up the TV (I’m watching [...]
