Sunday Happy
It is my belief that Sunday was created for the sole purpose of giving us one day of rest. This day is meant for us to be lazy and recover from the week’s craziness and prepare for tomorrow. I don’t take advantage of that philosophy very often, but I enjoy it when I am able to lounge on the couch, watching TV or staring at the ceiling with nothing of importance on my mind. Just because I do not take the opportunity to acknowledge this day of rest, does not mean that I don’t expect you to. I find great happiness in hearing about your lazy day Sunday’s! I will…

Happy First day of October!
As I mentioned in the earlier post, I love Autumn and hope that it sticks around for a few weeks, but I am going to enjoy it while I can. October marks one entire month away from August and I am certain the chance of triple digits are behind us until next spring/summer, and that is reason to be happy! In fact, I am doing the happy dance right now! On this first day of October, I am going to open the windows, turn the AC off and clean the house from top to bottom, purging along the way. I am getting rid of books, keepsakes, and maybe even a…

My Favorite Season
My most favorite season is Fall. The colors are breathtaking, the air is clean, the night breeze is crisp and summer is behind us, winter in front of us, and life is grand. It is odd that I find so much happy in the Autumn months because as a kid, that meant school was in session and as an adult it means my biggest hate is near. However, there is just something so sweet and peaceful about fall days. The dog days of summer are being shed by new colorful beauty and the windows in the house are open and I have fond memories of sitting on the porch with…

This Week in Birthday’s!
There are a few birthday’s that I have enjoyed celebrating this week, but only two that I can publicly show my excitement for. WLTNBN: I hope you had an amazing yesterday and that the cake that was made specifically for you was your favorite, and that it was a large one so that you can have cake well through the weekend! Birthday cake is delicious with wine, coffee (or, tea in your case), vodka, maybe tequila, but definitely not beer. Well, unless it is a dessert beer, but those are never any good, in my opinion. I am sorry that I wasn’t able to wake you up with birthday cheer,…

My Weekend in San Antonio
We drove to San Antonio Friday afternoon, beating most of the traffic until we were close to downtown. It was not too bad, and it was before the rain moved into the area. It was a beautiful day to take a drive because I could see the blue skies changing into an ominous grey as we drove into downtown. That evening we met friends for drinks in the hotel bar and then they joined us for dinner at a local Italian restaurant. This place was authentic and not on the riverwalk, which made me happy because I am not a big fan of that tourist trap. The river is gross,…

My Latest Music Obsession
I have always loved old rock and roll and tend to play an arrangement of artists on Spotify from the 60’s through the 80’s. Don Henley is my absolute favorite, with his “In the Heart of the Matter” being my favorite song. Rod Stewart is a very close second; I could listen to him all day and still not get tired of his voice. He has a new album that was just released a few months ago and the song “Can We Stay Home Tonight” is simply beautiful. In the last few months I have been broadening my musical tastes more than I ever thought I would. Rob turned me…

A Keurig Coffee Maker
We are in San Antonio, staying at a downtown hotel, right on the Riverwalk. I am not a fan of the three blocks of concrete that lines the river, creating a walkway for tourists to explore the gimmicks of the city that have no connections to the ethnicity that created the town. The hotel is nice enough and there is a Vietnam POW-MIA convention so there is an abundance of old people. That makes me happy just walking through the lobby. We are in SA for a Diamond Convention; I am not an attendee, if that is what you think, but Devil is the event photog and has been for…

Elephant Appreciation Day
Today is a very special day because it is dedicated to our gentle giants!!! It is a day to appreciate elephants and love them just because! It is a great day to love them because all they want in life is to have a family and to be loved. They look out for each other and love wholeheartedly and that is something we could sure stand to learn ourselves. Plus, look at their faces, they are just precious and everything adorable and their hearts are so big and lovable! Appreciate those you have in your world that are good to you because one day you might wake up and realize…

This Week in Football
I am just as gobsmacked as you are that football has found its way into my blog. However, here we are and I have joined Dawn Marie’s football pool! It is fun, I have to say, although, I know nothing there is to know about picking teams. I just simply pick between two “options” for each game and sometimes I win, sometimes I lose. For the first time I have chosen the Cowboys. It was between them or Chicago and I asked DM which team I should pick. It does not take one with a brain to know her answer to that question. I am going with the Saints for…

Do Not Assume . . .
Do not assume that when you take me private that I am going to use racial slurs, or call myself disparaging names. I am not into using foreign objects either, so going private with the assumption that I will give in because you are paying a per minute rate will prove fruitless on your part. Also, typing over and over – DO IT DO IT DO IT, is going to result in nothing but frustration for you. I do role-play, but if you take me private and then tell me to “RP something”, I will be at a loss as to what you want. Do you want, mom/son, sexy neighbor, controlling…
