cold, oh, i love the cold, now and even love shoveling snow! i grew up way upstate ny, so i am acclimated.Well i lost my job back in 08 when the company sold and after unemployment ran out and still no prospects, i had to take a temp job doing live plants and flower displays.Not a bad job really, but its hot and the money sucks-but as a mom, i had to grab something.My background is in transportaion and logistics but i am not so sure i want to go back to that.70 hour works weeks and stress, but the salary was great.So i dunno, where to go from here, i want to be happy and not a slave to my work.My dreams? live in the mountains and having a woodworking shop restoring antiques.Now that would be sweet! the color pink? well thats the color of my cheeks when i think of you

What concerns me is not the way things are, but rather the way people think things are.

Yeah, you don't know what you got 'till it's gone. But the mystery lingers. Why is it gone? The mystery tasks me, like a great white whale somewhere over the horizon.
I am speaking, of course, of the disastrous visit to Office Depot, as elucidated in my previous blog. I am speaking of the root cause of the fact that all my documents (actually, "most", not all) were erased from my hard drives.

I have a five year-old HP computer. It runs XP and it runs very well, thank you.
Woops. I had a computer. Past tense.
Though it ran long and well, and only crapped out while playing Alpha Centauri, my favorite game, I felt that it had slowed down over the years. No telling what was in there, gumming up the works -- viruses, worms, clams, spyware, spudware, cookies, gummybears and other mean and nasty stuff.

What do you do with a drunk-en sai-lor?
So ear-ly in the mor-ning!
Thus goes an old navy ditty from the glorious days of sails and brass cannons. I never learned WHY they had to do "something" with the drunken sailor. Couldn't you just let him lie where he dropped? Or perhaps the ship was sinking--I can see where you might feel obligated to DO something with one of your...

As the somewhat deranged bounty hunter in the television series, Firefly, said at the very end of one episode as he found himself in his space suit, alone, abandoned millions of kilometers from the nearest planet, station or ship: "Well. Here I am."
Here I am. Sixty-two years old. I swore I would never live this long. I never saw any reason why I would want to. But life happened, you know how that is. Or maybe you don't. You'll understand some day. Or you won't....

Life is full of incidents. Well, that goes without saying. But some of those incidents are rather special, even memorable. And some of those memorable incidents actually occur on holidays. And so it was this past Monday, Memorial Day of 2009.
This coming June will mark the end, for me and my wife Gwen, of the third year in our new home in League City, Texas. By the way, League City was on the 2007 list of the Hundred Best Small Towns in America. No fooling. And our modest little...
