I just got a Ticketmaster alert that Kreator and Accept are coming to a theater near me. I am not sure what is more alarming, that Accept is opening for Kreator or that Ticketmaster has realized that I would care about Kreator and Accept more than, say, Glen Campbell or Jimmy Buffet who are both [...]
Give and Take
March 13, 2012
I try not to ask too many things of you, but today I am asking for a favor. I have mentioned before that I sing with a choir. We aren’t a church choir or one of those a cappella groups that dresses up at Christmastime and sings in malls (Although, were I to be honest, [...]
What Sucks: Part 1
January 15, 2012
You know what sucks? Realizing that your iPod is on repeat instead of shuffle after you get in the shower.
The Audition
November 9, 2011
The audition was last night. I have to tell you that I chickened out. I said I wasn’t going to do it. I believe the reason I gave my husband was that I was “too pissy to sing a solo”, but then I went next door and my neighbor was auditioning for a different solo [...]
Grass is Probably Symbolic of Something Too

My husband bought me a new lawn mower today and somehow this made me happy. It is shiny and red and I am thinking of buying flame stickers for it. My neighbor in kindergarten will be so jealous. * * * When I was 18 years old and a freshman in college I called one [...]

R.I.P. Ronnie James Dio 1942 – 2010
May 16, 2010
Ronnie James Dio lost his battle with cancer this morning. I first heard when Laurie sent me a text message. We were just talking about him yesterday when we had to explain “the goat” to my mom after Claudia kept doing this in pictures. That sucks. He was a legend. My thoughts are with his [...]
I Think I Am Starting to Enjoy Mowing
May 8, 2010
I think I am starting to like mowing my yard. Really. Just hear me out for a second. I know, I always say that I don’t like outside and I hate nature unless it is the beach, but that sort of comes into play. First (and least surprisingly) it is good exercise and gives me [...]
