Well, this is quite awkward… and annoying at the same time. This post is taking twice as long to type because I’m using only my left hand to type. Why? (you may ask..) Because of a stupid car accident last month, and some broken bones in my arm, I’m a cripple. That means that it [...]

The Moving Finger
I cannot sleep. I cannot say that this is the first time I have had trouble sleeping. I’ve been pretty bad at sleeping for the past year and a half or so… ever since we moved to Sacramento. But this is probably the first time I will publicly admit that I have trouble sleeping. I [...]

Handguns + People = Disaster
http://cbs13.com/local/toddler.shot.handgun.2.1646042.html Here’s the link to the article about a little girl who somehow managed to shoot herself with a loaded handgun and died. Yes, she died. Of course, the usual questions come to mind: What was she doing with the gun? Why was it loaded? Why wasn’t it put away? The father is a sheriff’s [...]

One More Thought
As a result of the rejection from the microstock company… see the post… I thought about improving my photog skills and have looked around for something that would help me out… maybe a project of some sort. I discovered this site: 7 Photography Projects to Jump Start Creativity. And now, I am faced with having [...]

More Mouths to Feed… Coming Right Up
ChoCho, one of the girls. Sake (the black and white kitty) and Indy It’s hard being a parent.. even a pet parent. We had lost Rocky last month (she was 19 years old) and so it’s been pretty quiet without any kitty noises in the house. Then we found out that Izzy, our outside kitty, [...]

Trying to Figure out Microstock Photos
I am really annoyed. I won’t mention the microstock site where I tried to submit photos to see if maybe I could sell them.. but I was brutally rejected… and I mean brutal! I think 1 out of the 10 I submitted for approval was even close to being approved… and that was because it [...]

Obsessed with Being Popular
When I was in high school, I must admit that I wished I was more popular. I wished that everyone knew who I was and I had a lot of friends. It turns out that many times, I had friends because I was very studious. And because I was so studious, I was voted Most [...]

Sincerely Yours….
I was watching the news last night and there was a story about a woman from Sacramento who dropped a message in a bottle while she was on a cruise a few years ago around Boston. The message ended up in a small village in Nova Scotia and the finder’s wife and this woman have [...]

Shut Up and Drive Already!
Did you know that one of my biggest pet peeves is when I see people driving with a cell phone glued to their face? Starting July 1, 2008 (that’s almost 2 years ago), drivers in California are prohibited from driving “a motor vehicle while using a wireless telephone unless that telephone is specifically designed and [...]

Sugary Sweet Chick Flicks
I’ve been overdosing on the chick flicks for the past few hours. I first watched Sex and the City, the Movie, then I popped in He’s Just Not That Into You, which I must admit, have seen this for the second time and still I have not seen the whole movie. I don’t know what [...]

Trying to Keep Up
Hey Everyone, I thought I’d write this post as note to the readers out there. Specifically, YOU! Yes, you! I know you’re reading. I’m practically anal about the stats right now, even though I shouldn’t be because they really aren’t much in the way of stats anyway. Today was a pretty boring day, filled with [...]

High Praises
Oh my goodness. I was just on the internet, looking up the name Drusilla, which is a character from Buffy, the Vampire Slayer, but also I think that was also the name of Diana Prince’s little sister from the Wonder Woman series. I think it’s a pretty name and so I was just looking up [...]

Learning to Relax
When most people want to relax, they take a nice hot bath, read a book, or take a long walk. For me, I love playing video games. There’s something about playing a game that just sets you free. I really don’t care if people criticize people who play games. It’s pretty obvious that those that [...]

Has Bon Jovi Become Too Preachy?
My husband and I recently attended the Bon Jovi concert in Sacramento at the Arco Arena. We had seen the Lost Highway tour in San Jose in 2008 and so we were equally excited that they were coming to Sacramento, where we had just moved, especially since (according to Jon Bon Jovi, they had not [...]

What the World Will Be Without Saturday Mail
I don’t know about you, but I will surely miss getting the mail on Saturday. According to CNN Money, the USPS is considering cutting their Saturday service. They are facing such debt that they have already began reducing their workforce and closing some distribution centers. I believe that the reduction of mail volume has a [...]
