Buying a new razor blade shouldn’t be a scary endeavor. That’s my opinion, anyway. They stopped making the razor I’ve used for years and years, which threw a kink into my normal grocery shopping routine. Boo. I adjusted, buying some nice citrus-colored disposable razors instead. It was exciting to find an option that isn’t pink…

Happy Dog, Sad Crossing Guard
I wasn’t expecting much good to come of yesterday. It was just destined to be that kind of day, you know? Then the day surprised me. I love it when that happens. It makes me feel like this: I do have one guilty confession to make though. I feel like I should announce it now,…
Thoughts from Half-Sleep

Do-Re-Mi-Fa-So-La-Ti-Do
Today’s happy moment is brought to you by music. For the past year and a half, my musical contribution to the world has been limited to radio sing-alongs and an occasional shower concert. Talk about great acoustics! All of that water drowns out any less-than-perfect notes. (Technically speaking, that isn’t great acoustics, however.) Before I…
Small, but valuable.
