All of you without (but wanting) kids, take note.. and all of you with kids, nod your head in understanding…
I feel like complete shit tonight. My boy (he’ll be 18 at Christmas) came down and told me how he’d saved up $350 but hadn’t expected Denny’s to lay off all the part time staff last month so he was short money that he thought he’d have by now.

For the last three or four weeks I’ve been wanting to do something very out of the ordinary for me - I’ve been wanting to get up and drive to the mountains for sunrise. How is this out of the ordinary? Well, sunrise is most often the time i am going to bed, not getting up.
Anyway, with fall now here sunrise if after 8am and this is so much easier than when it is 4am (since the...

Thanksgiving dinner is complete, I managed to find a place for all of the left-overs, I’m on the second load of dishes in the dishwasher (only one more, I think) and am sitting at my desk drinking the remaining Pinot Noir strait out of the bottle and washing it down with amazing apple pie.
