Nope – I Won’t Fall For It
When I sit to type something out for BecauseJimSays, sometimes I have to give it thought. And other times it just writes itself. And this is one of those times. I wasn’t born yesterday. You can’t fool me. See, when I first saw this, I thought it cool. But now that I’ve had time to … Continue reading Nope – I Won’t Fall For It
No – You Are Not #1
Many of you know of this that I’m about to speak of. Or is it that I’m about to write of? Either way. Me, I find this type of stuff fascinating. I love finding out that something I do has historical meaning and has been handed down over the centuries. Not that I would ever … Continue reading No – You Are Not #1
Just a test?
The pain was real. The wound was deep. But the scar ….. Was the first bite just a lesson? Or was it an initiation? Did you feel the need to test me? To see if I am worthy? I thought we had something. We had a kinship. We had an understanding. We were brothers? Blood … Continue reading Just a test?

I never considered what would become of HIM. In one of my favorite songs, “Me and … Continue reading I Figured It Out.
When The Pickle IS The Pickle
Got a sandwich from Chik-Fil-A the other day. I know I know …. What’s the big deal ? See, I’m not really a fan of Chik-Fil-A. I just don’t really care for chicken sandwiches. Now, we could get in a discussion about people not liking Chik-Fil-A for their political or religious views, but on that, … Continue reading When The Pickle IS The Pickle

NOTHING !!! It’s 7:02 am on Monday and why am I at my computer instead of working? Well…… I pride myself on never being late. Lisa too.
