October 5th Day To Remember
The morning start like any other. Too tired to want to get out of bed. Struggling through my morning routine. Riding to work with my friend, commiserating over our evening activities and kids. Once we exited the freeway and headed towards work our mundane morning took a scary turn. Police blocked the roadway, and rerouted … Read more
Truer words were not spoken.
As I struggle to make my son understand that school must become a priority. I see him once again falling into bad habits. It is 10:30pm on the first day of school and he is just thinking about getting online to do his homework. The problem is that our laptop is down and the only … Read more
Bad Bosses–Everyone can relate
Had an great time at the movies. Have to give a “BIG” thumbs up for “Bad Bosses”. It was hilarious! The behavior of these bosses, makes your average daily slave-driver seem tolerable. “KUDO’S to Jennifer Aniston for reinventing herself so completely to be the lecherous, inappropriate dentist Once you see the movie, you walk away … Read more
Life is Just Too Short…
My daughter called me crying last night. She just wanted to hear my voice. She had lost someone near to her. Someone who was family to her. Someone she cared about. Someone who she didn’t always want to speak to on the phone, but now I know she wishes she had. How can you know … Read more

California Drivers—Before and After Commuter Lane
I have been driving a long time, before there even was a commuter or(HOV) lane on the freeways and the now obsolete “Fast Lane” has always been my friend. The instillation of the commute lane had little or no effect on me until recently. Over the last couple of years I have joined the millions … Read more
Sprint HTC Hero is my “Hero”
I have found a phone that I am in love with. I have had the Hero for a little over a month and it was love at first sight. I thought maybe the romance would die after the initial honeymoon stage and I would end up frustrated and disappoint like many of my other techno … Read more
WEEKEND OF CHANGE
Friday was my baby girls eighteenth birthday. We went to dinner and a movie. I came home to find all her stuff gone. I was so sad. She moved in with a guy she has been dating for a month. It ‘s all bad! It is so hard as a parent to see your children … Read more
Paranormal–Hype that doesn’t deliver
Spent the day yesterday in anticipation of seeing Paranormal Activity. The movie was suppose to be scary and all the hype surrounding it had me wondering if it wasn’t the same false provado that accompanied “The Blair Witch Project.” As a horror fan, I was completely let down, when I finally watch Blair Witch. The … Read more
Society’s Morals Have left The Building
This “moral degradation of society and the negative depiction of women” posting has been rolling around in my head for a while now and I finally had to get out online.
