Breaking radio silence

January 29th, 2008 · No Comments

Holy crap, the weather in Iowa has lost its ever-loving mind!
This is a true statement, I am not exaggerating for effect:
When I drove home from work yesterday, one of the various business clock/thermometers I pass by read 56 degrees.
Today, at basically the same time of day, that same thermometer read 0.

For my final NaBloPoMo post, I present the ‘100 Things’ list that I have honestly been composing off and on in my head for the last three years. Final purge!

Saturday was ripe with blogging fodder and I need to share this before I forget it.
After the final rec show of the season, the members of the Hawkeye Marching Band were taking photos with their friends, their sections, their families, ect, before heading out to their last pre-game. It brought back memories of my not-so-long [...]

Today

November 11th, 2007 · 2 Comments

Today, I went to the new ginormous Menards and bought a carbon monoxide/gas detector. I woke up this morning, after a night of horrible dreams that paralyzed me with fear, and thought that maybe my cat and I were slowly being poisoned by my apartment. According to the detector, I am just crazy, but maybe [...]

does anyone else

November 8th, 2007 · 3 Comments

Ever get lost in their thoughts when they’re showering to the point where you either: do things out of order (condition before shampooing) or turn off the water and realize you’ve completely forgotten a step in the process?
