And I don’t say that sarcastically. I am on day 3 of a 3 1/2 day bigassed company conference. Went last year and got roped back in again this year. I am an introvert, like others in my group that … Continue reading →

Can we just stop everything for a couple days?

Posted on October 25, 2018 by A Dreamer

In happier news…

Posted on October 24, 2018 by A Dreamer

Why I am not on Neighborhood Watch…

Posted on August 11, 2018 by A Dreamer

RIP, Prozac Princess

Posted on August 5, 2018 by A Dreamer

Monday was a terrible, no good, very bad day. Carmen went on to her great reward after 9 years of being one hell of a cat. So far, Lily is handling it better than anyone else in the house. I … Continue reading →

Damn, I must be more jaded than I thought
