Wednesday, September 30th, 2009When I was little I didn’t give much thought to guys. Seriously. Er… at least that I can remember. (That’s my story and I’m sticking to it!) As I got older, however, I began to make a mental checklist of what I wanted (okay… older constitutes about 30… shut up! I was a late bloomer…). [...]
The Plot Thickens…
Monday, September 28th, 2009Okay…
So if the skull that the soviets have had since 1945 – and was touted as Hitler’s skull – actually belongs to a woman who was younger than 40, and if it doesn’t belong to Eva Braun who, rumor has it, died by ingesting cyanide, I’m left with two questions:
1. Who’s skull is it?
2. Where [...]
Grrr… Arg…
Sunday, September 27th, 2009Let’s talk conspiracies…
There is only one downside to buying a new car (aside from the car payment and the insurance), and that is paranoia.
Paranoia that everyone else on the road are idiots and they’re all conspiring to make your car look not quite so new. People in clunkers cut you off then take 5 minutes [...]

The Day When The Misfit Signs Her Life Away
Monday, September 21st, 2009I’m picking my new car up today.
Woo Hoo!
Of course, I’m on the hook for a car payment and insurance and don’t have a job, yet. But it’ll be fine.
I hope. :-)
That Which I Write When Half-Asleep
Friday, September 18th, 2009So last night I slept like absolute crap. I don’t know what it is about Florida, but I always manage to hit insomnia mode more often than not. But this afternoon I got in a rather lengthy nap which means I’ll be up late tonight, up early tomorrow, and be forced to take another afternoon [...]
That Which Makes Jimmy Carter Sound Like An Idiot
Wednesday, September 16th, 2009The level of disgust I feel when someone (read: anyone) plays the race card when it’s not warranted is immeasurable. And it’s gotten worse since President Obama took office. I mean, seriously. It drives me absolutely in.sane when people who disagree with the president are immediately labeled as racists. While I don’t doubt there are [...]
That Which Makes The Misfit Wait
Monday, September 14th, 2009I am not a patient person. I’ve gotten much better, but I simply do not like to wait. Period. I get bored. My mind starts to wander. Imagination takes hold. Which generally means I end up creating drama for myself. I haven’t figured out why I do this. I think it’s just to keep myself [...]
8 Years Later
Friday, September 11th, 2009When the QM2 was sailing into port in the wee hours of 4 September 2009, the Manhattan Skyline illuminated everything around it. Conspicuously missing, of course, were the twin towers – a gaping wound in the skyline welcoming me home after my year abroad. I thought about September 11th 2001, where I was, what I [...]
The Little Things
Thursday, September 10th, 2009One of these days I am really going to post about the happenings on the trip complete with pictures, but I’ve been so busy getting settled back in I simply haven’t had time to upload pictures and get my thought processes straight.
But they’re coming, I promise.
In the meantime, I’ve been working on obtaining the two [...]
