My Life Happenings

Why is Extra Caramel So Hard???

03/06/2005

Okay, those of you who know me know that I have coffee addiction issues. I’m too busy to go through withdrawal now, so it is what it is. Anyway, my drink of choice is an iced latte with extra extra caramel sauce & an extra shot of espresso. I like the strong coffee flavor. I Read More

Oscar Madness

02/28/2005

K…I don’t want to go off on the Oscars or anything. I’m just mad that The Aviator didn’t take Best Picture & Best Director. I mean, don’t get me wrong, I loved Million Dollar Baby and think Clint Eastwood is a phenomenal director and can really put together a great character-centric film. But, Scorsese made Read More

Most Loving Thing…

02/14/2005

I listened to part of the Dr. Laura show on the ol’ AM station today and she was having guests call in and answer the question, “What is the most loving thing you’ve seen someone else do?” So, I got to thinking about what my answer would be. I thought of things that were awesome…but Read More

I Want to Be a Morning Person

02/14/2005

It’s true. I want to be the kind of person who gets up and feels rested and connected before starting the day. The difficult thing is that they also have connotations of being no fun at night because they…well, they go to bed at a regular time. That translates into being boring, no fun, “old” Read More

How Stupid/Greedy Can You Be???

02/13/2005

So, I’ve been sluggishly following the Michael Jackson molestation trial. It’s totally bizarre and, I’m sure you would all agree, Jackson just gets freakier and freakier by the minute. When I look at him I try to remember the Jackson of the good ol’ days when he could spin into the ground and turn into Read More

My Wicked (Transatlantic) Dream

02/07/2005

Along the same lines as Eddie, I thought I’d share my recent dreamland. I was at this place and I was not allowed to leave until I thought of a real word that started with “Transatlant–.” Well, I thought and thought. The only thing I could come up with was “Transatlanticdentalism.” I knew it wasn’t Read More

The B-I-B-L-E.

01/31/2005

I received my first “adult” Bible from Wyoming United Methodist Church in Wyoming, MN after completing my confirmation classes. It didn’t mean a lot to me then, and it just got slapped on the dusty shelf at home. But, years later, after I became a Christian, the book got opened and drawn in and slept Read More
