Sorry for the lag in blog posts. I had a routine of Saturday morning blogs down, and then I don’t know what happened. Life is both relaxing and stressful at the same time right now. On one hand, I have a performance at one of my schools tonight and I cannot wait for it to… Continue reading After tonight is over…

Where are the left-handed microwave ovens?
We’ve moved our microwave oven into a little corner in the kitchen recently. It makes it a little difficult to open the left-hinged door. So, I’ve been searching the Internet for alternative microwave ovens with either reversible doors (like our fridge) or a left-handed door with a right hinge. So far, nothing. Do they not… Continue reading Where are the left-handed microwave ovens?
Three Day Weekend!!!
Woo hoo!!! Boy, do I sure need an extra day this weekend. I had today off, and it was fabulous. I slept in until 10:30 this morning and then pretty much did nothing except laundry. This week went by pretty fast, and I have to admit that it is almost to that time of year… Continue reading Three Day Weekend!!!
Attack of the killer weeds!!!!
So owning a home is fantastic, except for when monsoon season comes and with that TONS of weeds and unwanted bermuda grass, which then need to be killed immediately to prevent a complete take over!!! I was able to keep on top of it this summer when I was doing nothing all the time, but… Continue reading Attack of the killer weeds!!!!
Rest and Relaxation
Jenny chillin’ Jenny and I have decided that our town-hopping Northern Arizona trip is a great opportunity to photoblog. Here’s the link to the Flickr stream. We didn’t take very many photos tonight (Friday), but we’re planning on seeing all sorts of interesting things (vortexes, mansions, canyons, ruins, etc.) tomorrow, Sunday and Monday. More from… Continue reading Rest and Relaxation
Workaholic or just stupid?
I just finished calculating the hours I worked for the past 2 weeks (my pay period at Pantano), and my Pantano total is up to 70 hours, which doesn’t include whatever I’ll be working today. In case you didn’t know, I’m an hourly employee only contracted for 60 hours in a pay period. Now here’s… Continue reading Workaholic or just stupid?
Dreams (and Facial Recognition)
I’ve been making an effort to remember at least one dream each night. Basically, I’ll tell myself “Okay, self, we’re about to go to sleep, so try to remember that we’re sleeping and dreaming.” Oddly enough, that’s been working. I’ve been remembering most of my dreams, and I’ve been dreaming almost every night. Is that… Continue reading Dreams (and Facial Recognition)
New Comment CAPTCHA
I’ve installed a new anti-comment spam plugin. It uses the CAPTCHA method (Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart). The nice benefit for readers is that you are no longer required to give me your name and email. Comments appear instantly without moderation. So… I’ve filtered out all the spam, but… Continue reading New Comment CAPTCHA
Flashback 1983 (aka Tucson floods again)
Thanks to some awesome aerials over at the Star, I’ve been able to create a short but sweet tour of some of the major flooding and flowing rivers in the Marana area. Not yet pictured, but flooded: Sabino Canyon, Catalina Highway, Houghton at Sahuarita, plus several more places I can’t think of at the moment.… Continue reading Flashback 1983 (aka Tucson floods again)
My Political Manifesto
I just finished reading an End-Times extremist spamvertisement, without realizing its true identity until the last few paragraphs. I hate manipulation and I’m not a fan of the common practice among Christians to “conceal” a subliminal message into otherwise decent text. So it got me to thinking about where I currently stand in politics. I… Continue reading My Political Manifesto
