Finding Inspiration

It’s been difficult and time consuming but I’m finally finding inspiration for a return to the old blog in a most curious manner. I’ve been facebooking and tweetering (whatever it’s called and it ain’t my cuppa) because that’s all the time I’ve allowed myself to expose and record my thoughts. I realize that I have [...]

2008 In a Word

From The Daily Humorscope for January 1, 2009:
Pisces
(February 19 – March 20)
You will become fascinated by the unlikely use of the same word to mean very different things. For example, what is the link between “seasons” as changes in the weather and “seasons” as in what you do to food? Or for that matter, why [...]

The Working Classes

“There are wise people who talk ever so knowingly and complacently about “the working classes,” and satisfy themselves that a day’s hard intellectual work is very much harder than a day’s hard manual toil, and is righteously entitled to much bigger pay. Why, they really think that, you know, because they all know about the [...]

Random Friday

And it feels like Tidbit Tuesday… It’s been a long week.
Have you ever gone back and read through your blog or stuff you’ve written and it seems totally foreign to you? I’ve been reading through my blog (and forgot my own password, for God’s sake!) and laughing, smiling, tearing-up, and grimacing. The grimacing is more [...]

Boo!

Oh… The Drama! Kitty-Saga blew into a full-on nosy-neighbor-clash. It turns out that this lil’ kitty was SUPPOSEDLY being taken care of by the crazy-lady’s neighbor and he wanted the cat given back. This guy is a real *winner* of a dude, no job, always scammin’, and when he talks to you (when the “you” [...]

I swear…

… and if that offends you, stop reading now… 
I’ve become a morning person by default. I’ve been working the opening shift which means I’m up at 3:45AM and out the door to work by 4:30AM. The other night I woke up at 2:30AM and couldn’t go back to sleep. I wrote, read, drank coffee, took a [...]

OOoogly BOOoogly Messages from the Universe

“Hello, Universe?  It’s me, again.  What exactly you are trying to tell me?”
I have no idea what’s in the message but I’ve taken the call(ing) to heart and, boy-oh-boy, am I payin’ attention! I had the oddest, oogly-boogly moment yesterday.
Let me back-up just a wee bit… there’s a lead-in that I must address.
I got my first [...]

Poop

The shine on my Happy Shiny Disposition is a little dull today. I’m a little discouraged and feel like I’m back to the drawing board in my search for a new career. I’ve been holding out for a position with a company that I really like. All interviews went very well and the DM was [...]
