Finding the time

We’ve moved. Twice. The first time from Montana to Wyoming and into Geek Husband’s grandma’s tiny house.

C is for…

Catching Fire! Which is really just my lame way to say: I FINALLY got out to see The Hunger Games movie tonight. I’ll say more later, but the gist is: I loved it, they did a great job, I’m tired and can’t think properly, m’kay bye-bye. You might also like: Hmmm….seems we can’t find anything [...]

B is for…

Walking contradiction

When I was in college one of my good buddies liked to call me a Walking Liability. Yeah, so I hurt myself a lot. What can I say? I was thinking about that this morning and realized that isn’t so much the case anymore – I haven’t been put in a cast for a really [...]
