Hello Friends! No matter how many times I type the word friends, everytime I type it here, I type Fir and then have to backspace to fix it. Maybe it’s the uppercase messing with my typing. Also, in my short attention span head, I’m thinking the numbering of the posts may get more challenging as [...]

Hello October! I can’t believe it’s already October, can you? but then again, I seem to say this every month as if I expect time to pause while I get my stuff together? anyway.

we got a twtvite to a Transformers Tweetup a few weeks ago and I knew I’d be the hero of the morning if I brought the boys down for some good animated bot on bot violence. I think it was to get us ready for the new transformers movie that will be in theaters soon. [...]

We went down on Saturday to have dinner at California Pizza Kitchen and then took some time to wander around the mall.
