In which I am very hot and I am learning patience

I have made a goal. By the end of this afternoon, I will only have 400 unread posts in my Google Reader queue. Currently I have 669 posts. 269 to go. My progress would be slightly more EFFICIENT if I didn’t have this antiquated piece of JUNK that keeps giving me the spinning pinwheel of […] more
Confessions

That’s the problem with reading lots of blogs….or rather NOT reading the lots of blogs you are subscribed to. I currently have over 1,000 new posts that I’m frantically (yes, frantically) trying to get through. I was SURE it was Gundiva who asked us for our biggest fear/hang up that her readers had, that – […] more
Honesty

This post was originally going to be one of those fire and brimstone, you better critically evaluate yourself blah blah blah blah posts.

Finally got around to see Disney’s “tangled” last nght with Matt. (whole ‘nother story there that may be told later for maximum entertainment purposes….). You’all have probably seen it already but if you haven’t – rent it for a dollar and have a movie night. Even if you make a policy of not watching princess […] more
Roach adventure

Remember that “It’s raining, it’s pouring post”? Yeah…not my best work. Just had a chance to read it in google reader (side note – I have 1,000 unread posts in Google Reader! That’s rediculous people. Stop posting ’til I get caught up. I managed 200 today) and it was pretty awful. . That’s the problem […] more
