    Tonight, I am finally going to take a look at a blue, 1975 Volvo for sale in our neighborhood. I have had my eye on this car for months now and much to my surprise the owner put it up for sale last week. It looks like this: only it’s blue. I always get nervous…

    On Sunday morning, after a week of putting it off because of having to answer too many questions, I began my first auction over at Ebay. I have been an Ebay member since 2002. (I know, not long.) And in that time I have purchased two things; a leg lamp and a bath caddy. And…

    This morning, while stomping around the house stark naked and in search of a bra, I walked over to the dining room table where I had a stack of folded laundry from the night before. I bent down to pick up a black t-shirt from the top of the stack when I noticed that something…

    Sometimes, I am suddenly rendered speechless when, as I’m sitting behind my computer contemplating what I might like to eat for dinner, it occurs to me once again that there are men and women living on a space station. Space, man. Space. I do this with the ocean, too. For example, right now, there are…

    Last year, we were in San Francisco at the time of the Gettysburg Apple Festival. This year, I’d like to attend. We went to the one two years ago and had a great time in spite of the fact that we had a most horrible meal at a local “5 star” restaurant. But the festival…

    I have lost 16 pounds in a little over two months. I hit my first goal in weight loss about a week ago and even though I promised myself a smorgasbord of fatty foods and treats once doing so, I can’t seem to bring myself to do it. Maybe upon completing my final goal. Who…

    Today, I felt a moment of joy towards all humanity. Now, the question is, is it true this time? Do they mean it? If so, why now? The Skeptical: The history of the past decade in Northern Ireland is littered with I.R.A. statements which we were told would be historic,’ said Ian Paisley, a firebrand…

    I wrote some of this post yesterday after work. After pottery class, I finished it. This morning at around 8:30 AM, I put it live. I left the apartment to head to work. At 8:35 I called Toby from the corner and told him to turn it off. I guess I didn’t like the way…

    I hold grudges. I’m not sure when this began, but I do. I hold grudges. I don’t hold that many. And I’m not even sure I can justify the ones I do hold. But I hold them. I hold just enough to go without dropping them. They’re not heavy. They’re just there. Years ago, I…

    Recently, Toby had this idea of giving people a given number of times they can visit a site during a given amount of time. Eventually, should they lurk too much and not contribute to any given post but instead silently read and probably silently judge, (I’m paranoid and menstrual), the text would slowly begin to…
