  • Stupid me Yesterday I did one of the all time amazingly stupid things for which there is no excuse. I backed the van into the trailer hitch, completely shattering my rear windshield (the hitch is high up, because it's…
  • Jellystone My family and I went back to Jellystone in Luray this past weekend. I love it there, I really do. There are so many fun activities, and all the other campers are so friendly, I just always have a good tim…
  • Scooby time I went back to Paramount's Kings Dominion yesterday, but not because I really wanted to. I was drafted by Gordon's youth group to drive for a field trip. Since it wasn't costing me anything and I didn't …
  • krisinluck 's challenge Juliet couldn’t figure out who was stupider – the four adolescents who wanted to go to a Corn Feed, or her own self for bringing them. Didn’t they know that they couldn’t eat corn on the cob wit…
  • Doing the math We weren't going to get season passes to Paramount's King's Dominion this year, but they made us a deal too good to refuse. $60 per person for the rest of this year and all of next year, plus free parki…
  • Trump My daughter wanted a LaserQuest birthday party, but not the average birthday party package where you get a party room, two games of LaserQuest, pizza, soda, and a bakery cake. She wanted better. Better in thi…
  • Not a debate I have not hidden my political views, nor do I expect other people to do so. However, I think that I do not want to debate the virtues of Kerry vs. Bush. The reasons for this were all well demonstrated …
  • What did you say? It is hard to explain what is going on in my house. Here are some quotes: "You are hurting my Fists of Death." It's a strange thing for anyone to say, much less a grown man speaking to an 8yo boy. …
  • Baby fish The molly fry were still plentiful this morning. I couldn't say exactly how many there were, because they are all much better swimmers than they were yesterday, but they look to be twice as big as they were y…
  • Gordon - Sweet 16 Today was Gordon's birthday. He was very specific that he did not want us to make a big deal over it, so we settled for making a minor ruckus. First, while he was at school, we made over his bedroom…
  • Flowers, part 2 After asking Jim about the seedlings, he admitted that he thought they were weeds and dug them up. This was mildly frustrating, but then he got all huffy. Apparently, in order to "win", Jim had to mak…
  • Where have all the flowers gone? Surrounding my mailbox, I have a small bed of mixed perrenials, and about two feet away, I have a nice little Rose of Sharon bush. A rose of Sharon isn't really a rose; it looks more li…
  • Grand Opening Sale! A Michael's about 7 miles south of us is having a grand opening sale, and of course, I had to make sure it got some of my money. It's summer, between day camp season and school season, and I need m…
  • Wearing the message I purchased a pair of Kerry dogtaghs to wear, partly because the profits go to support the campaign, and partly because I wanted to spread the message without banging people over the head. One says…
