If only life was made up solely of weekends.
Friday night, I made bruschetta linguine for dinner, which is one of the first times that I’ve made up my own recipe for something. It was pretty good. I sautéed minced garlic and onions and then added halved cherry tomatoes and fresh basil for just a couple [...]

One of the things Funnel & I have in common is that we both like video games.  We’ve had conversations before about how it’ll be weird when our generation gets older because we’ll probably have “family video game night” with our kids and maybe by the time we’re elderly, they might have video games geared towards us old [...]

Funnel is currently working his very last shift ever at Walgreen’s. 
For almost the whole time we’ve been married, he’s been working the night shift (8 days on /// 6 days off).  That’s meant a lot of nights alone and a lot of days where we might just get to see each other for a couple of hours.  I was [...]

3.  I am really [...]

One evening I walked about ten feet into the woods and stopped. I saw the fading sun filtered though the overgrowth, striking the ground in shafts of [...]

I have been really busy this week getting ready for our trip….
Funnel and I are pretty excited.
We’ve never had a long vacation together.
But I have a fear of Kirpi dying while we are gone.
(because Odie died when I was in Hungary, freshman year)
This silly little creature has stolen my heart. I love her to [...]

Lately, I have become addicted to Tetris.  I play it on my lunchbreak at work, as well as at home when I am bored (or stressed).  I’ve gotten pretty good, to the point that it’s not that challenging to me anymore, even at the highest level. 
So I have invented my own game, which I call [...]
