Yesterday, Kegan and I drove to Canon City to get his drivers permit. He is already 16 but I wanted to wait until I felt he was ready to handle the responsibility of driving before we got his permit. It was a very exciting day. He was very nervous and we talked [...]

Drunkman
Currently my friend V. and I are attending a 2 day DrupalCamp in Denver. It’s very cool and very geeky, and oddly I feel like I almost fit in. I say almost because there are only about 10 girls out of 100ish people and unlike some of the geek boys, I like to [...]

getting clear
For a while there, I was confused. Okay, maybe afraid is closer to the truth. Fear can cause confusion, confusion can cause fear. It’s really just a snowball effect, so I guess I was both confused and afraid. The hard bit about it all is to break the cycle. I [...]

P.S. I (Still) Love You
Driving to work today, my son and I saw this:
I asked him to get out of the car and snap a photo. He found that one of the signs had fallen over. Between the “I” and “Love” was a sign that said “Still”. He tried to put it back up, but the [...]

Happy Birthday Kegan!
Kegan is 16 today. That means that I am getting older. Ugh. Yep. It really is all about me. I love that he chose to come to work with me today. I am very, very blessed to have such an amazing kid!
Kegan eating White Castle for the very first time [...]

zoloft update…
It’s all gone. Out of my system. Thank God. I feel much better, although I sometimes miss that stop-action grudge movie feeling.

Karma, the good, the bad, and the ugly
Do you believe in Karma? I do. Karma is based on belief. If you don’t believe in it, than it can’t affect you, blah, blah, blah. Well, I think it affects you whether you believe or not– we just tend to call it good luck instead of good karma or [...]

pretty in pink
Have you see the movie? Pretty in Pink has got great tunes, great acting, a great story line and just a feel good…”the girl gets the boy in the end” feeling to it. I seriously love it. I may just watch it tonight when I get home.
I also can’t wait to see [...]

boys in tight pants
I like long hair, fashion crazed outcasts, people who aren’t afraid to push the “normal” envelope. But, why boys, why? They are everywhere — these boys in tight girl pants. Why? They look horrible. Last night we were at Sonic and a nice jeep pulled up beside us. 3 [...]

prescription advice
I hate taking drugs. Especially the ones your doctor says you need. No, not antibiotics, although I really hate those, I’m talking about anti-depressants, ADD or ADHD crap, or anxiety medication, or something along those lines. I seriously don’t like taking anything that may be mind altering (except a drink now and [...]

tooth
So, I either chipped a filling or broke a tooth. I can’t tell. I have had problems with this tooth f.o.r.e.v.e.r. This sucks. Now, you are asking yourself “How did she do that?” Well, I bit down on a turkey wing. Ugh. Now I have to call the [...]

ch ch ch changes
I love change. Maybe love isn’t the right word. I need change. I am not good at sitting still for very long. I’ve been living in the same state for 11 years, had the same job for 10 years and I’ve lived in the same house for 5 years. Some [...]

Holy Shnike!
So, my husband and I talked about my car fiasco last night and agreed that we should have the car towed home and put off the repairs until we can save up the 4000. We have two other cars I can drive, so it’s not a really big deal…just a lot of money. [...]

it never ends
When life sucks…it really sucks. Normally, I’m a pretty positive person, at least I like to think I can find the brighter side of things. But I just can’t anymore. I’ve been having some car issues, and that is a pretty big thing for me since I drive 2 hours a day [...]

dreams
Yeah, I’ve got em’. Dreams that is. Big dreams. Dreams of dreaming mostly. I also dream of being in Evita as Eva Peron. I don’t know why, but I want to be on stage in front of hundreds, even thousands of people singing my little guts out. ‘Breath from [...]

technologically speaking
Some conversations should be done in person, or over the phone. Conversations that involve facial expression and voice inflections. E-mail can be rehearsed and re-written, IM is impersonal and hard to sometimes interpret. I love face-to-face when it is a truly heartfelt discussion.
I have a friend that I haven’t seen [...]

brain power
Lately, I’ve been feeling as though I need to improve my memory and improve overall brain function. I found Lumosity. I normally don’t play games on a computer…okay, I love JigZone, but I don’t really consider that a game, although I know it is. Anyway, Lumosity makes me feel like I am [...]

pair o’ pants
Why do we call pants, pants? Why is it plural? Why do we say “a pair of pants” or “a pair of panties”? I don’t say “a pair of bras” or “a pair of t-shirts”. Isn’t that implying there are two? There are different opinions of course, like we have [...]
