I am not sure you understand that my Thursday evenings begin with Survivor. So, let me be the first to tell you that when I get off work on Thursday afternoons and realize that there is no Survivor on, I get sort of cranky and it makes my whole TV watching for the evening all [...]

Today started in such a lovely way. I had to wake up at 0800 to pick up the Junior at a church lock-in, where she stayed up all night long…even though she had to work at her new job, that she detests already because she is working with…well, let’s just say…folks that aren’t even remotely [...]

Well, we all knew that there was going to be one…that something that made her not ABSOLUTELY perfect. I just didn’t realize it was going to affect me and my dinner. See, as it turns out, Belle, the perfect WonderDog, has a penchant for EATING EVERY DAMN THING THAT IS MEAT THAT YOU LEAVE ON [...]

No Country for Old Men, an addendum
