To the economy, that is. Following the guidance of our President, George W. Bush, I spent a portion of our economic stimulus check. I had originally planned on rolling the entire amount over into savings, and actually did do that once the money arrived. It was this past weekend that I dug into the old […]
This weekend…
1) We spent the night at the Hilton’s Indian Lake Resort, indulging in dual massages at Spa Vargas, chocolate covered strawberries courtesy of room service, and adult beverages al fresco at the Master’s Club on the golf course. Oh, and we got ripped off 10 bucks for a lame-o putt putt course. […]
At work, we sit in an unconventional hub of cubicles. The placement of the cubicles lends to a nearly perfect triangle, the points of which are me, Sarah and Alexis. Over the past few months, the three of us have grown pretty close. They’re the first two people at work that I’ve really forged any […]

We used to always pass by Far East Studio in Aurora and crack jokes about its $5 massage specials–complete with happy endings. We would check the cars parked out front to see if we knew any of its clients. And it was all fun and games. Until someone gets arrested, that […]
I apologize in advance for all of the high school stories, but I realized that perhaps as a Yearbook staff we didn’t sound like we were the nicest people in the world. And maybe that’s because we weren’t. We totally made fun of the Zestas, and took inappropriate personal pictures using film purchased from the […]
I’ve been reminiscing about Logan: The High School Years lately, mostly because of our impending 10 year reunion. I can’t believe that it’s already been 10 years since graduation, but I’m definitely looking forward to our reunion. That is, of course, if anyone can tell us when it’s actually taking place.
I was invited to join […]
When I was in high school we had the greatest attendance policy. Our academic calendar was set up in semesters, and as students we were allowed 10 unexcused absences per semester. Unexcused absences would be defined as days where you missed and your mo-ph’d sk (inside joke), but you had no official medical documentation excusing […]
You taught me everything
And everything you’ve given me
I always keep it inside
You’re the driving force in my life, yeah
There isn’t anything
Or anyone that I can be
And it just wouldn’t feel right
If I didn’t have you by my side
You were there for me to love and care for me
When skies were grey
Whenever I was down
You were […]
It’s with a heavy heart that I must announce the retirement of my favorite pair of socks. They’re nothing special, really. They’re an old pair, bought back in the days when Target’s “The Spot” was “The 1 Spot” and everything really only cost a dollar. They were part of a football season/tailgate themed 1 Spot […]
I’m not sure how it happened, but our entire stockpile of Skyline Chili from our Easter visit has been depleted.
Didn’t buy enough? We thought for sure that 6 cans would do us until our next visit.
Gifting them? I may have shared a can or two with curious coworkers.
3-Way binge? Guilty as charged.
We’re down to 1 […]
