Happy Birthday to my Sweetie
Today is my husband’s birthday. It also marks the one-week period that he’s older than me and the only time I can call him old. 😉 Feliz cumpleaños!
How to Write Good
I borrowed — not plagiarized — this from Megan Rebekah — who I believe borrowed it from someone else — so you may have seen this by now. Enjoy! How to Write Good 1. Always avoid annoying alliteration. 2. Never use a long word when a diminutive one will do. 3. Employ the vernacular. 4. …
Never One to Let a Little Thing Like My Stature Get in the Way of a Project…
Irony
Three years ago today my dad shoved the final box into my car and we headed south to Me-hi-co. (We also removed the toaster oven when we realized there wasn’t room for my file box. Talk about a decision I’ll regret for the next 1083 days.) That same day (it was a Monday) two close …
