I’m sick and I can’t stand it. I have some bizarre disease like strep, but not strep. It’s sort of a bacterial infection which makes my throat hurt, but now I’m on antibiotics and hopefully this will go away soon. I’m not getting any sleep and I’m uber-cranky.
I thought I’d throw in one more post [...]

So this is Christmas / And what have you done / Another year over / And a new one just begun ~John Lennon

Well, that wasn’t the BIGGEST nothing I’ve ever seen, but it came close. We did at least get some snow, but it certainly wasn’t the Armageddon that they were expecting. I even went to the grocery last night for some ingredients for dinner. It was fairly quiet. There was a shortage of parking spaces, but [...]

Another year older…eh, no big deal. Thirty one is so not a thing.
However, I did have a wonderful birthday. On Friday evening, we and the neighbors went out to Maido Essential Japanese for dinner. Mmmm, delicious! It’s a Japanese restaurant on Frankfort and I can highly recommend the Osaka Blue for dinner. It is slowly cooked tuna [...]

First of all, HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAD! His birthday was yesterday, but you know how it is. I did at least phone him and sing to the answering machine.
Secondly, today is the no man’s land between my father’s birthday and my own. It’s like a void in the calendar. Une fleur entré deux abîmes. Which is not really true. It’s [...]

Ladies and Gentlemen…the French Toast Brigade will be arriving shortly.
You know who I mean. The crazies at the supermarket, stocking up on bread and milk for the impending 100-year blizzard, that will probably amount to not much more than a handful of snow across the Ohio Valley. You think I’m kidding. There will be at least one [...]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY C! Actually, it’s not until tomorrow, but I will not be writing tomorrow…so it’s early. Now you have a last-minute chance to get on the forum and wish her a happy birthday.
We’re going to cut down a Christmas tree tomorrow. It’s one of C’s favorite events of the year, so it’s cool that it’s [...]
