Groovin’ on a Sunday Afternoon

Remember that bitchin’ stereo you had back in the 90’s that totally cranked Nirvana, MudHoney, Public Enemy, Bob Marley, Chris Cornell’s screamin’ and Eddy Vedder’s growling? I got mine out of storage today. Yep; cleaned her and cranked her. Only I did my test sessions with Al Green. Sounded great except for that blown left [...]

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 [...]

Belated

Time keeps on slippin’, slippin’, slippin’… Into the Future…
It’s also been slippin’, slippin’, slippin’ right through my fingers. How time flies when you’re havin’ fun, eh? Not so much but it’s been whizzing by at a curious rate. I blame it on Sunday and two things: earlier than ever Daylight Savings and my birthday.

What a long, strange trip it’s been. I just worked nine, freakin’ days in a row and during that time had five community meetings and lots and lots of emails, phone calls, and other committee stuff to attend to. I’m pooped. And this is why I haven’t called anyone back, written on the ol’ blog, [...]

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 [...]

I Read Dead People

Oh, yes, yesterday was a much better day! I had a meeting with a community schools coordinator and just loved speaking with him. He’s a lovely guy… totally passionate about what he’s doing… and he and I talked about different ways to put the right people together to move forward in creating better parent involvement. [...]
