My brother usually takes care of my dogs when I’m out of town. He wasn’t able to this weekend, since he went to Florida to visit the in-laws for Thanksgiving. I had no choice but to board Molly and Cruella. I have been worried about them, and I even called the kennel on Friday to [...]
Blogging From Brico’s
I left Knoxville on Wednesday morning, bound for South Carolina to visit my Brico for the Thanksgiving weekend. Somewhere in North Carolina, I saw the weirdest cloud. It looked like a UFO! Check this out. When I awoke four hours later – in another state – there was Brico, with gifts in hand. He had [...]
Are You a Typical Blogger?
I just stumbled across a very interesting report – a 33 page report on blogging! This report is based on a telephone survey of a nationally-representative sample of bloggers. It discusses the demographics of blogging, reasons for blogging, even time spent blogging! I read the entire report without a moment’s boredom! Maybe it’s just me, [...]
A Thanksgiving Post
I have so many things to be thankful for – family, friends, my dogs. But at the top of the list is Brico. He is the best boyfriend I’ve ever had or could ever imagine having. Sometimes I tell him that, and he can’t seem to understand what makes him so special. Here are a [...]
3:03 AM, and All is Well
As most of you know, I don’t get a lot of sleep. Just look at my blog. Most of my posts are created late at night. I’m a night owl – always have been. I normally stay up until 2 or 3 AM, and sometimes later. Oddly enough, when I’m with Brico, I enjoy going [...]
Still Sick
My symptoms got worse today, so I went to see a doctor. I’d been treating myself with Zicam and Tylenol Cold, and I now understand why I wasn’t feeling any better. It turns out that I have a sinus infection and bronchitis. The doctor prescribed an antibiotic and a cough syrup, and he told me [...]
Sick As a Dog
Mike informed me that I’ve been unusually quiet lately. Ms. Chattie does have an explanation. I’ve been sick. Extremely sick. Coughing, aching, sneezing sick. I missed the KnoxBloggers meeting on Wednesday, and I missed my swim lesson on Thursday. It may seem strange, but you can gauge my illnesses by the number of hot baths [...]
Time to Release Your Inner Geek!
Tomorrow night is the November meeting of KnoxBloggers. The topic is She Blogs Hard for the Money. Victor Agreda will speak about professional blogging. Yes, you too, can make money with your blog! As a matter of fact, I just made $152.25 with my blog today. See those two little home insurance links in my [...]
My Celebrity Look-alikes
Brico just did this, and I thought it was cool. I couldn’t resist playing along! What do you think? http://www.myheritage.com
Bits and Pieces
I’ve had a sore throat all day. I really hope I’m not getting sick again. It took me weeks to get over it the last time. I’m on my third swim instructor. I really like this lady. Yesterday was my third lesson with her. During the first lesson, I swam across the pool with a [...]
