I love Halloween. I think part of it is that it represents fall, when the air is a little crisper, and the leaves start to change color. I love the extremes people will go to for the perfect costume. The season is a little sad for me. While trying to find the picture of Calem’s [...]

The Cheese Stands Alone

Dan and I were grocery shopping at Trader Joe’s. If you don’t have a Trader Joe’s, or TJ’s as we call them, in your area, it is a shop that sells speciality items at a reduced cost. For example, one of the things they have had lately is Wisconsin Cheese Curds. I tried a sample [...]

Plus, [...]

Yesterday, I went to get something to eat. Dan had [...]

Off Time

Dan took today and Monday off.
When we are both at work, we usually ride in together. It is easier, since we work about five minutes apart. We still enjoy each other’s company enough to meet for lunch. Throughout the day, we will chat on gmail while taking care of our various tasks. It makes the day go [...]

Peeing in the Woods

A few years ago, Dan and I talked about going camping at some point. We even went out and bought mattress pads, and a tent. No sleeping bags, though. Our purchases have been sitting in the closet, unused, for about three years now.
At some point in this conversation, Dan suggested that after we try camping, maybe we [...]

Ups and Downs

Every morning I get in the elevator. Usually I ride alone, but sometimes someone else gets on. It seems to be a rule in our building that if you are the first person on, you press the buttons for everyone, unless you happen to step to the side or back, in which case people give [...]
