I say goodbye, while you say hello

For the most part, Roth is like a silent partner when it comes to this blog. He doesn’t ever speak, and I get to tell y’all the most embarrassing, unflattering and unsavory stories of our lives together. Because really, who am I kidding? It’s my blog. But I still like to think he’s involved in [...]
What’s in a name?
Posted on August 30, 2006 | Category: Uncategorized | 9 Comments
After all the energy I expended to make sure my first name was spelled right on all of our loan paperwork, in the end, they got my middle initial wrong. On every.single.document. So I had to cross off the wrong initial, write in the right initial, and then initial the error. And then sign my [...]
The one where my head nearly exploded

So far today, I’ve eaten: a croissant, four seven Red Vines, one Viactiv Soft Calcium Chew (because my boss insisted it wouldn’t cause premature menopause and that it actually tastes like a chocolate truffle. Yeah, not so much.), 23 gummy bears and a Dr Pepper (did you know there’s no period after Dr in Dr [...]

Because I know y’all just can’t get enough of the beagle clips … Photo Sharing – Upload Video – Video Sharing… from the dog park today, where there were no incidents involving butt-sniffing, drooling or puking. Just writhing, which is one of Sierra’s favorite things to do. This time, she chose to rub herself on [...]
August and everything after
Posted on August 24, 2006 | Category: Uncategorized | 7 Comments
As August slowly comes to an end, so does the summer in Seattle, it seems, as suddenly the skies have turned gray and overcast while the days have started to grow shorter. It’s hard to imagine life after August, as we’ve become so consumed with buying this house before the end of the month, that [...]
Dressing the part
Posted on August 21, 2006 | Category: Uncategorized | 10 Comments
Today, I am wearing this dress. I bought it specifically for my wedding rehearsal, and then didn’t wear it again until a couple weeks ago when it turned really hot here. On its first day back from from the closet, I got all kinds of compliments from co-workers, so I figured, why not add it [...]

For lack of actual content, here. Watch this video and decide if there’s animal cruelty going on, or if I am the best dog mama ever. Or, if I need to get a life. Video Hosting – Upload Video – Video Sharing(BTW, this is a diversion-from-reality-type post. Not ready to talk about the fact that [...]
Top Five Friday #5: Songs that give me the chills
Posted on August 18, 2006 | Category: Top Five Friday | 10 Comments
Because I can’t be still unless I’ve got at least three concerts lined up, I’ve just added Snow Patrol to the mix. Roth and I saw Toad on Monday, and it was a fantastic show. A real throwback to the mid-90s, and there were even a few of their songs I had forgotten that I [...]
I love my husband — reason # 121
Posted on August 18, 2006 | Category: I Love My Husband | 7 Comments
His kryptonite be of the rice variety. If there is one thing I know to be true about myself, it is that I will never, ever be a master of the culinary arts. While I can muddle my way through a kitchen just enough to make sure I don’t starve or burn down the place, [...]
Wish I knew how to quit you
Posted on August 17, 2006 | Category: Uncategorized | 5 Comments
Sorry about that last bit. I was feeling a little uninspired and all woe is me and what came out was some sort of kneejerk commentary on the state of the blogosphere. In fact, for about five solid minutes, I thought maybe I should just take a really long break from the blog, or better [...]
