Do It Quickly

Currently, I’m staring at the rest of the expanse of my kitchen counters wondering, ‘Really, how hard can it be?’. Why can’t I just leave these things alone? Somebody pleeease, shoot me now. I believe it’s the only way to save me. From myself.

Et Est Done

The kitchen bar is finally done. It was my first experience with installing Formica counters. I wouldn’t recommend it. Definitely a pain in the ass. I will probably pay someone to do the other counters tops. At least the tile came out nice.

    Yeah, good thing you’re not bitter–because you know bitterness only hurts the bitterer not the bitteree..or something.

    Commander’s Palace: highly recommended
    House Of Blues: not bad if you’re into 50-something, white conference attendees attempting to get thier groove on without breaking a hip
    A Non-Bitter Wife: excellent!

Towel Gate

Exactly how long is too long to spend in your towel after a shower? Is 2 hours too long? Not that I would ever do that. Nor would I ever sit around in a towel eating ice cream. But I just wondering. On another note: Is it just me or is it time to change...

    My answer to all such questions is “do what you want.” If you want to sit around in a towel all day, that’s fine. Whatever floats your boat.

A Conversation with my 4 “AND A HALF” Year Old Cousin Zack

Zack: [ While playing with my mother’s necklace] What’s this? Me: This is my mother’s necklace, and these are each of my kids’ birthstones. Zack: What’s a birfstone? Me: Each month has a stone associated with it and what ever month you’re born in, that’s your birthstone. Like you’re an Aquamarine. Zack: [Holding his hands...
