Happy Thanksgiving

Thursday, November 27th, 2003

I would like to wish those of you celebrating the holiday today, and even those of you who are not, a very happy Thanksgiving. There are so many things in my life I am thankful for. You are part of my list!

My very last conversation with Sprint PCS

Tuesday, November 25th, 2003

keeping in mind that this is a rough translation from the bare minimum of English this woman actually spoke and understood - will I get fined for asking for someone who actually speaks the frigging language??
Me: Hi, I was calling because my husband signed up for another cell phone provider and accidentally ported his Sprint [...]

You know… it’s pictures like this that really brighten up my day.
I think I just peed.

Memorial finalists

Friday, November 21st, 2003

Today they announced the 8 finalists for the memorial at the WTC site. This one made me cry. I also liked this one, but I think it’s impractical. This one is also very moving.
I think that the most striking is the reflecting pools. If you’ve ever been to the Vietnam Memorial [...]

Totally frustrated

Wednesday, November 19th, 2003

Went to the range today. I still have issues with shooting low. The only handgun I was accurate with is my Ruger MK II .22, which is enormous and heavy and a small caliber and therefore totally unsuited to defense or carry. I’m just going to have to take some sort of [...]

Nordstromania

Tuesday, November 18th, 2003

The more I go into Nordstrom, the more I like it. It’s the shopper’s nirvana. I bought 5 pairs of shoes today. I haven’t bought that many shoes at once in 10 years - because no place sells in my size! Retailers think there are no women out there with feet [...]

Jack in the Box pannidos

Monday, November 17th, 2003

Zesty turkey - 750
Triple meat - 650
Ham and cheese - 675
Zoinks! I ate one of the zesty turkey ones the other day thinking “Hey, turkey can’t be all [...]

Motivate me

Monday, November 17th, 2003

Maybe it’s the time of year. When the time changes, it’s a giant energy sucker. I can’t seem to motivate myself to post anything. It used to be that I would say to myself dozens of times over the course of a day, “Hey, I need to blog about that”. Now [...]

When you wish upon a star…

Thursday, November 13th, 2003

Something about fireworks always seems to choke me up. The “Wishes” fireworks at Disneyworld were no exception. As expected, the production was spectacular, with some fireworks that turned into hearts or stars. This photo was the one that came out the best, with Cinderella’s castle lit up on the bottom.
