last evening kevin came into the living room from the garage, and all he said was “grace…” and i knew by the tone of his voice that something was very wrong. it was definitely a “there is something very wrong” kind of voice, and i’m not...

sorry for all the labelling as “idiots” in that last post. i blame the fact that that was morning grace talking, and she can be much more harsh than midday grace, and of course she’s nothing at all like nighttime grace. multiple personalities, yes, but all...

this morning, a most dismaying poll was revealed in the paper – a whopping 63.7% of readers haven’t been to the abraham lincoln museum. WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR, PEOPLE? just the other day, a new friend said she’d never been there. i said WHAT ARE YOU WAITING...

why does it feel like it should be much later in the week? i feel like i’ve been getting SO MUCH DONE, but i think i’m deluding myself. it got an e-mail from my mother-in-law, about recess/mute lunches. she wrote “From my cynical viewpoint (and 20 years in the...

i talked to randy tonight and i believe he did even less than me this weekend. plus, he didn’t seem to be terribly concerned that he hadn’t done much of anything. less concern about things, that’s what i’m going to try to strive for. except for all the poor little...

how has an entire week slipped by me? i was either very busy, or i was being very lazy. both lots of activity and lots of laziness in one week. there were all kinds of things i wanted to write about, but the one that most sticks in my mind is a discussion i had with a...

is the correct spelling. it’s a movie about the future, when you have to have the right genetic makeup to get anywhere in life. ethan hawke doesn’t have it, but uma thurman does even though she has a bad heart, and jude law REALLY does, except he’s in a wheelchair and...

and it’s already the third of the month, and there was a poll in today’s paper, asking if people had already broken their new year’s resolutions. 80-some percent are still sticking to them. WOW, AFTER ONLY TWO DAYS… the poll seemed just a bit premature to me,...

well, first, one thing BEFORE that, is of course HAPPY NEW YEAR! 2007, how about that. i have high hopes for the year; at least i feel that it’ll be good. kevin has instilled in me this paranoia about being on the road on new year’s eve, so i headed home at 1:30 with...
