Woof. Finally the nonbloggable becomes bloggable – Mom (aka A-Woww) tripped and fell 2 weeks ago, fracturing her kneecap and shattering her elbow. The knee will heal on its own in an immobilizer which thankfully allows her to walk. The…
What's new?
Been a while, eh? I was reminded I had a blog by Google Webmaster tools. I don’t check my pageviews anymore, but it helpfully let me know my database was inaccessible a few days ago. I tweaked a few settings…
Alpha
Max is doing surprisingly well. I say this because just a week ago, we were having the “Quality of Life” discussion, as barely moved for three days and we were carrying him outside to do his business. This post was…
Forty-two years of me!
I did this for the pets this year so I had to humiliate myself in the same way, right? So yeah. Forty-two, aka my twenty-first (times two) birthday. That makes me a senior citizen in Internet years, doesn’t it? Today…
Friday (okay Saturday) Five: Usage
Happy Saturday! It’s April 5th. Even as the years are peeled off of my life’s calendar, I will always remember this day with a warm smile and a wish that all involved parties are doing well and living authentically. Yesterday…
Throwback Thursday: High school bowling
Not purely new content, as it was originally on Facebook. But behold the high school bowler. Are high school yearbooks still printed in black and white? Do they still deliver them via stagecoach? We had a work bowling party last…

The Blues
I. Am. So. Blue. Why? Here’s the list: 1) My feet hurt, but only after extended periods of being off of them. Such as in the mornings when I wake up or … every time I get up at work,…
Five years away from always having my right blinker on
Of all the things I miss about being younger, number one will always be the ability to wear trashy heels without feeling mangled after an hour. Number two is the confidence I used to have while driving. Today I had…
A lady looks at 40
I started this blog when I was 30. Today I turn 40. (zomg!) Forty laughs harder than thirty. Forty is rounder than thirty. Forty is so very much wiser than thirty. And forty is happier than thirty. Today my coworkers…
We're on the Road to 40!
Today is my half birthday – a milestone I started observing as little kid when birthday parties consisted of cake and ice cream in little cups. Now my birthdays still have cake, but I’ve swapped the ice cream for a…
I know what this title should be, but I refuse to type it
Waiting for the shuttle outside of work a few nights ago, I overheard the following conversation. Mostly overheard, as I was trying not to get slaughtered at Words With Friends. (Didn’t work. Want an easy WwF win? I’m ladygypsy, naturally….
