Ouch

Ok, today is a brand new day, so far so good though I’ve only been up for half an hour. Yesterday was all right until this happened: Half a freaking block from home these guys crunched into me. The corner we happened to meet on was sheer ice from recent snowfall and I can’t tell [...]

Flying visit

Ohhh so much going on these days, which I’m totally not complaining about. I remember the days of moaning about how boring things were, so I will not be moaning about being too busy to blog Just wanted to give the props to the kidlet who has scored a scholarship worth 56k over four years [...]

Holidays

I don’t know why, but this year seems particularly tough as far as getting through family-type events. I miss my mom. I alternately miss her and I’m terribly afraid that I’m going to die unexpectedly young. I’ve never talked about that before but I’m trying a new thing where I write without editing myself. So [...]
