Wondering what the world is
i haven’t written in my blog lately because things have been a little sideways. My cat boy has been sick so I’m taking care of him. i have realized that just because you think someone is “the one” doesn’t mean they really are… especially when they disappear without explanation leaving you to wallow around in…

reminiscences, chasing rabbits, a brief history of the internet and aol chat rooms
alexa’s response to my good morning today was to inform me that on this day in 1979 the board game trivial pursuit was invented. the trivia part was that it took the creators two years to write the original 6,000 questions and they did it without the benefit of the internet. wow i remembered being…

the joys of getting wise… or old…
two things have happened this week that, i have decided, are a direct result of joyous aging and loving life. i collect antique jewelry… you know the rhinestone, over the top stuff… i know it doesn’t seem to be my style, too girly, but it is so over the top it fits! anyway, i have…
