Chill sister, chill. I’m not taking your stuff. I was playing What Not To Wear today while going through the closets at my parents’ home. There is a lot that should not be worn in them. I was sorting clothing for a spring yard sale (eventually it will all go to Goodwill when no one [...]

I ran my parents booth at the Lakewood 400 Antiques Market in Cumming, GA last weekend. Yes, Cumming, GA. It was very cold. When I left Saturday it was snowing. Our space is outside. We were the only ones outdoors this month. I spent most of my time bundled up in the car. I had [...]

Ashley and I had another great night out in Atlanta last Friday. Ashley, her sister Melissa, and I ate at my new favorite Indian restaurant, Bhojanic. It was packed for a reason. As we waited for our table at the bar we listened to the live jazz band and indulged in a lychee martini. Delicious. [...]
Bad Dog

I love dogs. When I was planning on getting one of my own I decided I wanted a small dog that didn’t shed much. As fate would have it, I ended up with two great big shedding machines. Dad came home almost three years ago with a cardboard box; inside were big paws attached to [...]
My dad wore a suit and tie today.

The only possible explanation for this is a death in the family. Today we went to my dad’s brother’s funeral. It was sad of course, but my uncle lived a full and happy life. He was almost 81. Being 19 years older than my dad, he was at times like a father to him. He [...]

My mom cleaned out the cabinet full of junk food and this is about all that is left. Why does any house need FIVE bags of pork rinds?

Well documented fun times in the greater Atlanta area! Last weekend I met up with two of my best friends from college and a couple new friends to go out in ATL. The theme of the night was “No Men, No Meat!” I love hanging out with other vegetarians. We went to Deep Dish, a [...]
Where do monkeys come from?
Posted in Life, tagged email on January 9, 2009 | 1 Comment »
I tried to check my old email today, the one I got in the 10th grade and shamefully used for years, like until early 2008, despite the juvenile address (veggie_chick7), when I couldn’t remember my password. I tried to retrieve it, but I didn’t know the answer to my security question. “Where do monkey’s come [...]
Goals

Happy not so new year. I know 2009 is going to be good because I started it off right. I woke up at 5am New Year’s Day because I had just spilled the beer I had fallen asleep holding all over myself. No, I didn’t fall asleep drink-in-hand because I was shitfaced New Year’s Eve. [...]
Toilet to Tub

Today I ordered a raised toilet seat for my grandmother. In the last few days she has twice fallen into the bathtub after getting up from the toilet. She is okay, but we are making sure it doesn’t happen again. Grandma is 81 years old but can still live alone with a few items to [...]
