Here we go again…
We’ve been slammed with multiple storms here in Washington state. I’m not sure if you’ve noticed, but I haven’t been posting as often for the past few weeks. Now you know why. I’ve been pretending to be living in Medieval times, because it’s much more pleasant than having to acknowledge the truth: Without electricity, life really sucks…

I think I need to hire a handyman. I just wrote out a list of items that need to be addressed during good weather season to make sure everything in my new home continues to function. I am very nervous that my fat kid self will be physically and mentally exhausted trying to complete this…

However, I feel like Amy is only gaining traction and I cannot stand the thought of a humorless hag taking over my screens…

I decided to spice things up a bit in my neighborhood last night. Apparently, quiet communities and I just cannot co-exist peacefully. Something to think upon in my spare time. I was innocently driving home around 10pm when I recognized the car in front of me – it was my neighbor. I was on a…

The best therapy money can buy…
A few days ago Lola and I suffered a personal crisis. The internet went out, leaving us without an Apple TV or Netflix to watch. No computers to putter around on. No games to play on our phone since our signal is so weak without the internet boosting it. The horror, the horror! So we…
