Easy
I? Am entirely too susceptible to suggestion. I read about coffee, I need to make a cup of coffee. I read about breakfast, I’m hungry for eggs. In the series of books I’m reading one of the main characters keeps nibbling on glazed almonds. Of course I am now sitting here with glazed pecans (I like them better) and some wasabi and soy sauce almonds. Thanks, Feeney! Also? Burger King’s new fries taste too potato-y. Blech.

It is so quiet in the world of blogs and blogging lately. Seriously, my reader is humming Silent Night every time I open it. Nobody has a thing to say and those who do are too busy to say it. Here, too. Between work and running around, preparing for the holiday and shopping for the gifts and decorating and wrapping I’m plumb wore out. Excited, though. I really kind of overdid it and splurged this year on everyone. Taylor and I got Nook Tablets for our birthdays. (His is today....

My dream, of course, is an iPad because I love my iPhone to the end of the world and back but an iPad is just not in my price range, no matter how good the deal. So last night I decided to look around at other options and I...

Every week, by the time Friday night rolls around, I feel worn out and faded and so achy I just want to collapse. I've never been the Friday Night Party Girl type and I've only gotten less so as I get older.

Summer. It’s almost over. I’m watching the days rush by me with a tinge of sorrow. I’m not ready for fall, certainly not ready for winter. This summer has been truly good and blessed. This summer I have: Learned to ride — and put 1200 miles on my very own motorcycle. Ridden that motorcycle on a super slab and thru the twisties, with my best friends by my side. Camped. Kayaked. Grown and killed a box of herbs — but managed to use a bunch before I forgot to water...

I drink a lot of coffee, ride a motorcycle, have an 18 year old son and a decade long relationship that began in a chat room.
