All sick and accounted for

We’re both sick today. Of course we are! If October in the Northeast Kingdom wasn’t bad enough we have to have the black plague on top of it.
Now I haven’t told Laurie that I’m sick as well since she’s a lot sicker than I am. I did offer to go in and open up the [...]

So where am I anway?

A friend of mine, in a recent post, was lamenting the fact that nobody seems to be writing up any posts these days. Like maybe we’ve all gone into hibernation or something, disappearing into the woodwork from whence we came. In short, where the hell is everybody?

Allergic to Nine O’Clock

I tend to wake up later than Laurie does as she has this very annoying habit of hitting the pillow one second and being asleep the next. I think this is very rude on her part as it takes me two to three hours to fall asleep while she lays there in peaceful slumber showing [...]

Pickings getting awfully slim around here.

 
I like to eat. I figure most people do. It’s a sure cure for hunger they say but beyond that it’s also quite enjoyable most times. So I like to eat.
