11.27 Sunday Schmunday

Another decent day. Got some shit done and even got another mid-day nap in. Wish the days could all be so mellow…but maybe with a little bit of spice added in there? ;) Finished cleaning up the...

11.26 Saturday Doings

Today was a pretty decent day. Got up and started clearing out my little storage space so that I could get my Christmas decorations out. Turned into a massive project that’s still not quite done...


Yes. Full of the Food Lude. Had a great time at my folks’ place and now I’m back to my downtown apartment. All is calm. All is bright. But I’m cold! It’s not even really cold here, and I am ...

11.24 Mexican Turkey Day

Happy Thanksgiving! I’m at my parents’ place at the lake and about to go night-night. It’s been a day. Started at 5am with my workout and then did a 5k Turkey Trot (though I walked with the do...

11.23 I Needed This

Happy Hour tonight. It was impromptu and it was very welcome. Met my old counterpart, Ryan and another friend from work out at a bar close to my apartment after I picked up the dog from daycar...


I crawled into bed at a little after 8 to do my usual cruising the internet and writing of my November entry-a-day. I ended up in the bed in such a way that the dog lay down on my chest (she’s t...

11.21 Wine, Women and Song

Feeling a little bit better today, even though it’s Monday. Getting over the shock and awe of yesterday’s discovery. If you don’t know, go back one entry. Went to the opera yesterday with my fri...

11.20 Brutal

This was me last night after going down an online rabbit hole, searching for The Bulldog. It’s a long story, but the BD has a circle of unbelievably amazing friends, including a couple of former...

11.19 Not Much.

Saturday. Cold front blew through this morning. It was a nice switch and change of pace, but the heat is now on in my apartment and I feel very bundled up. Drank coffee this morning as I slowly...

11.18 Fried Day

I’m so over this week. I’m done, done, done. Boss got promoted to Executive Vice President today, but he’s been playing that role for months now. I just don’t like his smarmy ways - he’s supe...

11.17 Workout Therapy

Feeling better today for a few reasons. Well, I should back up. After I went to bed last night at 8:30, I woke up at midnight and couldn’t get back to sleep. A million thoughts were swirling...

11.16 Sliding Through November

On the back side of November now. Damn. How does time fly so quickly? Probably because I’m so crazed at work now that there’s no time to even figure out what day it is! I’m obsessed with weig...

11.15 Ultra Peaceful Protest

Tonight, Athena and I had planned to go to a rally downtown close to my place. It was a local Pantsuit Nation group that has formed since the election (one week ago today, what a strange feeling...

11.14 Almost…but not.

Well, look at this. The month is almost half over! And uhhhhhgggg, the month is almost half over. I’m back on the wagon with the diet and working out. I don’t know if I’m allowed to say that w...

11.13 Weekend Over

What a restful weekend. I got home stuff done today and that was a good feeling. Walked-and-talked with Athena this morning, early. Then grocery shopped, made pumpkin/oatmeal/nut breakfast cook...

11.12 Lazing the Weekend

OMG. I went to bed super early last night and dreamt something amazing, but I just can’t remember what it was. You know when you have that feeling that you had incredible dreams because you jus...

11.11 Singles Day

Well, it’s not Singles Day here in the US, but in China, 11/11 is known as Singles Day, their nation’s Black Friday, or more accurately, Cyber Monday as Alibaba, the Chinese version of Amazon has...

11.10 Buried Alive

Again, I don’t really know what to say lately. Work is so GD busy that I’m overwhelmed and I feel like every step I take is one step forward but puts me two back. I can’t get it all done, but ...

11.9 Dumbfounded

I really don’t want to talk about it right now.


…but I’m so tired at night that I’m not sure when I’ll get around to it. Here are a few updates: Vote: I got up extra early this morning because I wanted to drop the dog off at daycare and then ...

11.7 Back at It

Flight last night was slightly delayed, but the awesome French pilot made up for lost time and got us back on track and we landed on time! I figured he was French because his name was something ...

11.6 Week End.

Sunday afternoon. Almost time to head to the airport. Today’s been slow and I probably should have either gotten an earlier flight (but who knew?) or napped or slept later today. But my friend ...

11.5 So Tired

It’s after the football game and I’ve met crazy x-roomie and other girls from my former flag corps days. It’s been a long, long day that started at around 7 with getting ready and saying goodbye...

11.4 Windy Roads!

Oh! So Elaine says I need to fill you in on all of our day drinking yesterday! NO…in case you’re wondering, we DID NOT DRINK AND DRIVE!! We had tons of fun yesterday exploring the little downto...

11.3 Here

Elaine and I are here in Tennessee and we are having a great time…I arrived kind of late last night and she picked me up at the airport. We found this really cool speakeasy and had a couple of co...
