The FABulous morning:
1. Inexplicably, I am somehow back in Al’s good graces – having not been on his list of favorite people (which really only consists of his Mom, himself, and our shared boss in my limited estimation) for a while now. We chatted this morning and he helped me with my morning work. While [...]

So, I have reading glasses – I think I’ve mentioned them earlier. Last June, when craziness ensued regarding my eyes, one of the things the doctor highly recommended (basically calling me crazy if I didn’t immediately go to the store and purchase) reading glasses. I was an engraver (of jewelry and watches) for almost seven [...]

My Grandma is a leap year baby. I wonder if she has one of those corny shirts that say “Be nice to me, my birthday’s not on the calendar” with a little froggy. I would get her one just to be sure, but since my niece was born, we’re pretty obligated to send stuff with [...]

My flight landed/arrived at the gate 25 minutes early. So, I texted my Mom. Knowing I had carry-on only luggage, she changed her plan to meet me in baggage claim and decided to not park and pick me up in the arrivals area – awesome. (Because the last thing I want to do after a red eye [...]

Lent is usually my favorite time of year. This year, my task seems near impossible. It came straight from God, that is for certain. This would never have entered my mind. But, now that it’s here, it will not go away. He even provided the verse that I will be centered on throughout the season.

After three phone calls and three different people (plus two automatic router voice things), the conversation ended this way:
Girl: I need you to change the contract ending date to April 30th, 2009.
Phone Dude: I’m confused.
Girl: Well… Stop being confused.
Phone Dude: Okay. What do you need me to do?
Girl: Change the ending date to April 30, [...]

Sitting in a booth at a bear-themed restaurant, trying very hard to have an epiphany that would make Chapter 3 make sense, my nails freshly painted in a lovely shade of what appeared to be Lemon-Lime Gatorade, is where I found myself last night at approximately 5:30 p.m.
Searching for clarity, but finding none, I left [...]

It’s raining today. I love the rain. It always makes me think of that song “Blame it on the Rain” by Milli Vanilli. That, in turn, makes me feel old. How old do I have to be to remember the scandal that was Milli Vanilli? I even remember the Care-free gum commercial in which Milli [...]
