Mr. Pink Mouse was actually Dorey’s baby toy — about 12 years ago now. Currently it’s Andy’s “best toy EVER,” never mind that the poor thing looks like it has a skin disease.

Grey Gardens
Note: The following is my discussion of my viewing of the 1975 documentary “Grey Gardens.” While I’m not sure that it is possible to “spoil” a film that’s been around for 31 years, I’ve had my hide nailed to the barn door by the spoiler fiends before. I don’t care about spoilers, but if you [...]

Overheard in a Funky Coffee House
Happily good humor reasserted itself on the premises today and I was able to go out to the Four Star Café, a local coffee house I enjoy but rarely visit, and spend some time with the Wookie. He was mulling over his cell phone bill online complete with inexplicable charges and I was happily occupied [...]

Not the world’s greatest photo, but one-handed with a camera phone it’s not so bad and this is about the sweetest thing anyone has done for me today.

Crash, Burn
It’s a good thing that yesterday was such an excellent day because this one was crash and burn all the way. My housemate was in an abominable mood and we had a major set to about my cooking. It’s a funny thing to me that other folks eat my food and go back for seconds [...]

Slam Dunk
Today R. had her pedicure here at the house and while this might seem like a luxury expense, I rank it as a necessity. She cannot perform the chore herself and I’m not going to try because of her propensity for in-grown nails. Much better to let the same professional who has dealt with those [...]

The Tushy Chronicles
R. would most probably kill me if she knew I was blogging about this, but it’s one of the funniest stunts she’s pulled in quite some time and a brilliant example of her bawdy sense of humor.
As we all know, she’s fallen twice in the last week and while we were in the Little Town [...]

Real Customer Service
As we all know, I have notoriously bad luck with computer service calls. It doesn’t matter if I’m trying my best to be the most patient, polite person on the planet, I get that one brain-challenged moron on the other end who could make a saint snap and go postal.
Last week before the trip to [...]
