Vincent (Starry, Starry Night)
Reference While last weekend was my big weekend, this weekend is Mr. Penney’s big weekend. Star Trek opened this weekend, and we are going to see it tonight.

The Waiting Game
Reference Last time, it was my father. This time, it is my mother. Most of the past week has been spent waiting for and/or worrying about my mother. She had some pretty serious back surgery this week. This surgery will hopefully give her back some of her mobility and independence. There are a whole lot…

It Wasn’t Me
Reference Well, I got some good news last week. The investigations into the accident are over, and everything came out in my favor. While I never doubted that I was not at fault in the accident, things don’t always come out the way they are supposed to. Fortunately, they did in this case. In more…

Monkey Wrench
Strangely, the title became prophetic. Reference Thursday night, I start putting together this post by putting in the pics, save as draft, and presto! My site goes away.

Mr. Brightside
Reference If there was a bright side to me being sick, it is that it clears my schedule. Going to my company holiday party? Not anymore. Meeting friends out for lunch? I don’t think so. Going to get a couple extra hours of work in at the office? Not so much. Now, I wasn’t major…

Closer than Close
