So 3 bloggy friends (and a fourth friend I haven’t “met” yet) are starting We Want to Know Wednesdays. They say I can avoid laundry by answering a few questions… Avoid the laundry?! I’m in! The questions they pose are as follows: 1. Do you make friends easily? Yes, actually. I don’t need to have […]

An good friend will help you move. A great friend will help you move a body.
My best girlfriend is Eva. We met each other in junior high school and grew closer with every passing year. We’ve probably been friends now for about 27 or 28 years. Yikes! We were good friends in junior high, but we didn’t get to that “best friends” place until we were in high school. We […]
Purple.
May 1st. May Day. It’s also the American Cancer Society’s “Paint Your Town Purple Day.” Stupid cancer! Stupid breast cancer attacked my friend Donna when she was 36. She had no family history of it whatsoever. Stupid cancer! After Donna had a mastectomy and a few rounds of chemo, we thought she beat it. Young […]

When I was growing up, I swam, took karate, and played soccer & softball. My mom put me in ballet and tap classes as a little, little kid, but I don’t think I really enjoyed it (and those tu-tus are damned itchy.) I was a cheerleader in high school (well, I wore a cheerleading uniform […]
Is it cold in the news room? It is in Wisconsin.
Southern California rarely has anything interesting going on, weather-wise. Rich and I watch the morning news, not so much to see the weather report, but to see what our NBC weather girl, Elita Loresca, is wearing to cover up her enormous boobs. We crack up seeing what her librarian-inspired ensemble du jour is. No. Cleavage. […]
