I visit Breanna every five weeks. I’d like to say it’s because we’re such good friends. Or because I want to visit Kira and Bubba. But really it’s because my hair is a shade of not red…and Brea makes me vibrant. My friend, Rita, says it’s okay to color my hair…that I’m not vain…I’m just […] I’ve missed you Slightly Squinting friends. I’ve been buried under a pile of grading and preparation for end-of-semester mid terms, which ended today. I will continue to be buried throughout the weekend, but will also see the light of day at the SDSU Writer’s Convention at the Doubletree in Hazard Center. I will be surrounded […] While in Ireland at the University of Galway, my classmates and I went to the small village of Roundstone and were guests in the home of Tim Robinson, an acclaimed Irish author.

You may never have heard these lines spoken […] Captain Random and I took a long walk/jog at Lake Murray on Sunday. It was an overcast and chilly day.

When I woke up, it seemed the perfect day to do a […] You know that Everybody Loves Raymond episode where Raymond and his wife have been questioning their relationship? It’s their anniversary and they dress up, go out to a nice restaurant, and spend the evening talking about how good the bread is? Debra can’t believe they have nothing to talk about except the bread […]
On Saturday evening, I took a shower, put my sweats on, and crawled into bed cuz Captain Random was out for the evening with his brother. I flipped through the channels, as usual landing on ELove…my favorite no brainer relaxation channel…where Eat, Pray, Love was about to start. One of my favorite […] Usually when I go home in the evening, there is just not much energy left. I’m lucky to get a bite to eat into my tired little mouth (well lately it’s been too many bites…that’s why I need Zumba), grade a few papers or do a blog entry, and crawl into bed. I’m here to […] There’s something about getting flowers delivered to you, right? It feels so special. And when they come from a long distance, it feels like the person or persons sending them somehow traveled all that way to personally bring you the gift.
