You know, pooping is a lot like traffic …. The other day I had someplace I needed to be to take care of this urgent matter. URGENT !!! But I was rushing it - hit that rush hour traffic. I was stuck in traffic. Kind of felt like the car was overheating a bit, but … Continue reading Traffic Is Like ……

The Wait
You know how they say,“It’ll be worth the wait”? Spoiler alert… it’s usually not. The other day, I had to “take a sales call.”You know… THAT moment when the second cup of coffee and your kinda-sorta spicy lunch decide to tag team you. So off I go. Phew… made it in time. But dang… forgot … Continue reading The Wait
They Can’t Fool Me
Actually… they already did.And they do it every day. I grew up with a pretty good sense of time.And with time came distance.And with distance came measurement. I could look at something way off and tell you how far away it was—a couple hundred yards… a mile… close enough to matter. I spent a lot … Continue reading They Can’t Fool Me
The Life of a Girl Dad (continued ….)
As a girl dad, I’ve learned something important. There are many things I do not understand. That’s how my last post started. BUT. There is one thing I thought I understood. And I was confident. So so confident.Confident in my logic.Confident in my reasoning.Confident that my careful thought process would not only be appreciated… but … Continue reading The Life of a Girl Dad (continued ….)
Puzzled.
Yes, I am puzzled. Actually, I think I live in a perpetual state of “huh?” Here’s my latest crisis: temperature is apparently a social construct. 69 degrees means “I’m sweating to death” in July but “please bring me a sweater and a priest” in October. Same number. Completely different emotional trauma. I’m not even talking … Continue reading Puzzled.
Another Conundrum
Needed a new utility knife yesterday to do some work on a site. Off I go to Lowes and got that a few other things. Now, I understand the reason things are packaged as they are. Things get stolen right there in the store, taken out of the packaging and put in the pockets. I … Continue reading Another Conundrum
Best if Used By
I know the purpose of expiration dates. And yes, many things might “expire” by a certain date. Milk for example - I get it. But even that date can be arbitrary. While it is a suggestion, it is a STRONG suggestion. But there have been times when the date on the milk is a day … Continue reading Best if Used By
This Has Got to Stop.
But I know it’s not going to. It’s with both excitement and quite a bit of sadness that I tell you – my oldest has turned 20. 20. TWENTY. I’m not ready for that. I’m just getting used to this adulting thing myself, I was dragged into it kicking and screaming. It used to problems … Continue reading This Has Got to Stop.
“That’s Just Unconscious Knowledge”
And if you know what song that is from, pat yourself on the back and give yourself +1 pt One of the things I do, is I try to enrich people’s lives with random knowledge. After all, you never know when Jeopardy might be calling, and you want to be prepared. We all know that … Continue reading “That’s Just Unconscious Knowledge”
Never Have I Ever
As 2024 comes to an end and I think about the year ahead, I’m thinking about things I haven’t done. Maybe 2025 will see me doing new things. I’ve never eaten a wrap. I’ve had burritos and enchiladas but never had a wrap. Nothing against them, just never made one and there were always other … Continue reading Never Have I Ever
