LOVE!

Valentine’s Day is coming up after all.  Valentine’s Day is Casey’s birthday, so the most fun part of it (besides going to work for the evening and making meager wages) is that we make a treat for her.  We’re thinking wet+dry food with a small “1” cut out of cheese.  She loves cheese.  She’ll be so impressed before she devours and forgets about it for another year. I dug through the past 3 years on Flickr and realized they have flown by wonderfully, and colourfully!… Continue reading

Jack of All Trades, Master of None

As has always been my opinion, the best part of having long hair is the ability to pull it back as if it’s short again.  Such a nuisance.  As described on my Flickr page, I have never seen anyone else do this, so I’m calling it the Pocket Flip (TM/patent pending).

So why… Continue reading

A Farewell to Arms

I finally finished reading this Hemingway novel.  It took a very long time.  I’ve never been one to appreciate the classics, so it’s not worth criticizing me that.  The end was kind of worth the entire read, I guess.  If anything, it did teach me a few lessons in writing: Do not take 180 (eBook) pages before the first interesting thing happens. Do not then spend 70 more pages rambling until the next interesting thing happens. Always make characters likable, so that if you do… Continue reading
