My Own Place
Tuesday, March 22nd, 2005
It’s truly amazing whenever I get Clint to go along with something. He’s fairly stubborn and usually just ignores any request - like the time I insisted I would only answer to the name Rusty Shackleford. So I’m quite surprised to be writing my first post for my own separate blog. Last night I told [...]
Is there such a thing as too much music?
Tuesday, March 15th, 2005
This is a common problem. I sit in front of my computer trying to find something to listen to for what seems like hours. I’ve got plenty of music on iTunes, at present, I could listen to music for over 8 days and never listen to the same thing twice (except for all 17 versions [...]

Butters “Captain Chaos” Dickens 2004 - 2005
Earlier this week, a tragedy occured. Not a tragedy on the scale of loosing a child (which also happened in my family this week), but a tragedy nonetheless. It may be hard for some to understand why loosing a pet is so upsetting, but let me try to explain. [...]
Butter’s Own Blog Post and some other stuff too
Wednesday, January 5th, 2005
Over the holidays, I met someone who has, I believe, taken me and my sister’s place as favored people in the eyes of my father. This someone is a small, rat-like, stealer of nuts, batter of small objects, and licker of other people’s food. This someone is Butters - a kitten. My parents brought [...]
Look what I’m getting for xmas!
Sunday, December 5th, 2004
A little over a week ago, my husband made the mistake of mentioning that he missed having a dog. Of course, I jumped on the opportunity such a statement provided and within an hour, we decided we would get a dog. We had planned on waiting until we got back from Arkansas (for the holidays) [...]
Baseball, Michael Moore, and losing weight
Tuesday, October 19th, 2004
I’m a casual baseball fan. I used to be a big fan but after the Pirates lost all their great players and stopped winning games I stopped following it as much. I tried to rekindle my love for Anahiem, and the 2002 series certainly didn’t disappoint, but it just didn’t get me going the way [...]
Camping, Canadians, and DMB
Tuesday, September 7th, 2004
If you know Clint at all, you know one thing - he loves the Dave Matthews Band. Even though we were good friends before we began dating, I didn’t know this about him until we’d been dating for a month or so. I remember when I found out that this was his favorite band. [...]
My first 911 call.
Sunday, August 8th, 2004
Until Wednesday, July 28, 2004, I had never called 911. My only experience with a 911 call was about 22 years ago when on a Girl Scout campout I tried to convince a friend that the police would indeed arrive if she dialed 911 from a pay phone and hung up. I was right, and [...]
Clint, man of important words
Friday, July 23rd, 2004
Some of you are familiar with Clint’s talent as a nighttime conversationalist. For those of you who are not, let me assure you that his daytime wit and charm continues long after he has fallen asleep. I often climb into bed after he’s drifted off to la-la land, and if I’m lucky, I get to [...]
Something new…. and interesting
Tuesday, July 13th, 2004
I did something different today. I’ve been thinking about it for a while, and have spent hours reading up on it, but today I finally did it. I colored my own hair. Now, coloring my hair is not different at all for me. In fact, if you were to ask me what my natural hair [...]
