All my good ideas seem to come from other bloggers. Today, I wandered over to my friend LP’s blog and, lo and behold, I found her participating in the Best of 2009 Blog Challenge which intrigues me. The good part of this, for me, is that it is not a command to participate every day which my [...]

I don’t even know what to title this post.
I have a number of things to get through, so just sit down, hang on and stay as quiet as possible. I realized when I was thinking about this post that my mind kept jumping back and forth between topics…plus, I found a story on NPR this morning which demanded my attention, so today you’re [...]

Happy Thanksgiving
Ordinarily, I’m not really that big a fan of Thanksgiving. It’s just too much…too much family, too much food, too much noise. In past years, I’ve always wanted to simply avoid the holiday completely and not be involved. I’d prefer to simply sit silently in a corner somewhere and ignore the commotion. Unfortunately, that was [...]

3 a.m. automatic
This morning, after Ivy’s 3 a.m. feeding, I lay back down in the bed and realized that I had forgotten to post yesterday. Another year, another incomplete NaBloPoMo. C’est la vie.

If you’d like to read more about Melisa, the article about her death is available online here. It’s been a long time, a broken ankle, and even a premature finish [...]

NaBloPoMo 2009 – COL
It’s been a Monday…but a very productive Monday. I made some very good progress on a project that I hate. I was able to make a flight change for an individual that gives him more time with family over the holidays and it only cost the change fee, which is really nice. It’s been relatively [...]

NaBloPoMo 2009 – SFG
Last night, I participated in a once in a lifetime event. It’s not often that these sorts of things come around, I believe that’s why they’re called once in a lifetime. Anyway, before I tell you what it was, I have to tell you how it came to be.
Every summer, my dad and I make [...]
