Getting Rid of Crap

I spent the afternoon helping my father haul all our large pickup garbage items to the curb.  We’re finally getting rid of some choice items that we’ve been moving from house to house without actually ever using.
My dad has trouble throwing things away.  My mom instructed us verbally and in writing what needs to be [...]

Wedding Bands

After work tonight I met Thea at Square One to get sized for a wedding band.  This little jewellery store was having a sale so… there you go.  I dislike wearing rings or watches and such knicknacks… but this is a symbol of undying love or something so I’m going to go along with it.
So [...]

Bad Mood

I just talked with Dan on the phone.  This was my half of the conversation:

But I actually feel a little better.
I have lots of stuff to write about for a change, but I don’t feel like it.  But I think I can squeeze out something, I guess.
Last night, for some reason, as I was driving [...]

Scotland the Brave

I watched Braveheart last night with my Wycliffe friends.
I love William Wallace’s leadership style.  People follow him because he has a dream worth following, something that everyone else can almost taste through the way he articulates it.  He surrounds himself with people that he can trust, that hold him accountable, and are very good at [...]

Signs

I watched Signs this afternoon.  I saw some of The Sixth Sense on TV with friends last night, and it reminded me that I had borrowed Signs from Paul and hadn’t watched it.  When it originally came out all my friends went to see it without me (not bitter) and hated it so I never [...]

Super Gran

So Granny fell and broke her arm and shoulder.  Granny lives alone in Scotland.  She slipped at her front door, which is at that bottom of a staircase, and she couldn’t push herself back up so she laid there all night.  In the morning, after a very restful night crumpled on the floor, she was [...]

Boring Wedding?

Thea and I had a discussion last night about our wedding.  Not surprisingly because we talk about it a lot.  But we were debating whether our wedding was going to be boring because of all the compromises we have to make in order to keep family members happy.  All nude with a free cheeseburger bar [...]

Alas…

My glasses broke this morning.  The ravages of time… and the full weight of my body… crushed them.

I bought these glasses four years ago.  I was waiting for the unbeatable prices of  Korea to buy new ones… but fate, it seems, has stepped in.
So… off to Lenscrafters, I suppose.

Miscellaneous

I was awoken from a deep sleep last night by a tickle in my ear.  A tickle that turned into a crunch when I scratched it.  I turned on the light and discovered several small legs smeared across my fingertip.  I’m pretty sure the little guy was a spider, because several minutes later when I [...]
