(I have to tell you that every time I’ve typed “granola” during this post I have originally mistyped it as “grandola” first and for some reason that just totally cracks me up)!  I now return you to your regularly scheduled program. So as I was saying I recently discovered the delectible combination of creamy yogurt [...]

Well he may not be a blond lab, but this weekend I’ve been enjoying the lively and hilarious adventure known as Marley, Roomdog’s houseguest.  I know right, the DOG has COMPANY! Okay so maybe Roomdog’s human is dog-sitting but still, Roomdog and Marley are buds.  He arrived Thursday afternoon and has lavished us with his [...]

Let it be known that I will choose dogs over diamonds and trucks over trinkets any day, any time, any where. My first vehicle was a 1995 Ford F150 4 x 4 w/ extended cab and bed.  Complete with the cattle catcher grill, tow hitch extended rear bumper, suped up muffler system, steel lock box [...]

Well, most of the time. I don’t like the ones that turn into tornados and thankfully, I’ve never witnessed that first-hand.  And I don’t like the ones that drop little ice balls making dents in all things from plants to vehicles.  One time, during a particularly rollicking thunderstorm at my last apartment, I heard a [...]

Ahhhh…just another lazy Sunday for me and my roomdog. Last night I was working on some paperwork until quite late.  I finally surrendered to sleepiness but first, went to the restroom to do the usual brushing of teeth and washing of face.  At one point my roomdog came in; she looOOOoooves the cool tile floor, [...]

Yes, it’s true, I received another proposal for marriage today.  Now I can’t be sure if this is actually #24 or not, but there have been quite a few over the years.  Many of them have been amusing and today’s was no exception.  In fact, today’s proposal takes the cake! I led an orientation class [...]

Last evening I came home from work and threw a few ingredients together to make some dinner: pasta, turkey Italian sausage, sauce; grapes; left-over-stale-bread-turned-into-yummy-garlic-bread; and milk.  It was really quite a tasty meal. The other members of the house were sitting down to watch Kung-Fu Panda, which I hadn’t seen before, so I too settled [...]

Yes it’s true.  I love them.  I collect them.  I savor them.  I pour over them.  You can find evidence of this in a previous post on The Sweet Sound of Words.  In fact, I love words so much that I can sometimes lose hours reading the dictionary.  And not just the English dictionary, now [...]

You’re sitting in your office at your desk and your hair just keeps falling in your face.  But alas, you have no hair tie, no cute little clip, no barret, no nothing!  Whatever is a gal to do?! Why, use a binder clip of course! Yep, I sure did.  And believe it nor not, it [...]

Dear Mav, Please do yourself a favor and remember your most recent experience of moving. I say this with utmost love: “You are a terrible mover!”  Um, ahem.  What I mean is, you really have no talent whatsoever for estimating the feat of moving.  Accept this reality and adjust accordingly.  Seriously, you’ve got problems! Thanks. [...]
