Ya’ll are going to get so tired of hearing about this dog. I’m just telling you now. You might think that your dog is the best dog ever, but I hate to tell you, that you are WRONG. THIS dog is the best dog EVER. I have never had a dog like this, ever. She [...]

January 29th, you say?
Then tell me why the heater is off and every window in the house is open and gale force winds are ripping through here like a wind tunnel like it is April or something.
I love the changeable Texas weather, I really do. But this is too much.

Belle
The circumstances of how Belle came to our family are sort of like…well, I think she was just supposed to be with us. As some of you know, I’ve been contemplating a new addition for what seems like months now. I have cruised Craigslist and Petfinder and looked at so many photographs of baby dogs, [...]

A Story from the Longhorn
Yesterday morning the Longhorn rang me up to tell me a story. As it goes, a friend of hers had a birthday last weekend and she and some of her girlfriends decided to go downtown (Austin) for a nice birthday dinner. While there, as a bunch of 20-year-old girls often do, they wanted to [...]

My youngest daughter, the Junior, has always been the baby of her class. She will turn 18 when she is at college and will probably run to the convenience store for cigarettes and porn and stop to get a tattoo on her way back to the dorm. She’s just always been a young ___-year-old. She [...]

I hear there is an easy explanation for the UFO story that has been going crazy ’round these parts; however, I missed the news story about said explanation thanks to Mr. Trigger Happy Remote Guy who is napping happily over there while I tap tap tap over here.
Much as I suspected, having this laptop in [...]
Onward and Upward

Last Saturday was The Boy’s first Upward basketball game. If you’ve never heard of Upward, it is church-based sports/cheerleading program that encourages good sportsmanship and incorporates Christian values in the program. It’s far less cutthroat that our local Little Dribblers program and the parents aren’t allowed to go all wiggidy wack and yell at the [...]

Breaking a tooth…well, not so much a tooth as a fake tooth made by your dentist umpteen years ago out of…concrete-y stuff…because your real tooth was broken and needed to be pulled but you couldn’t deal with an extraction at the time. It wasn’t really supposed to last a year and hung in there for [...]
My Beach in a Jar

I’ve lived in Texas for most of my 43 years. Growing up, all my friends went to “the Coast” every summer. I remember one time Tammy West going on and on about how much she dreaded going on her family vacation to Corpus because it was “sooo boring.”
Even as a kid that annoyed me. I [...]
