Today is Raquel’s and my first blogivesary. Raquel insists we should call it an anniblogary because the ‘anni’ in anniversary is the part that means year. I wave my hand at that and say “Bah”.
So, what have I learned in this year?, you ask. Good question, I say. The first thing I have learned [...]

Dinner last night was kinda a hectic affair. And by that I mean it was more hectic than usual. Theresa’s sister Donna, her husband Bruce and their four children are visiting and so were at our dinner. We have recently added another to our number, an old friend of mine named Jeremy.

An Anouncement (Gabrielle)

Ladies and gentlemen, I have an announcement. Justice is now officially mobile.

Confessions of a Game Whiner (Gabrielle)

Seth sent me a link to this and I thought it was really funny. I read it and I thought “Except for the research part that’s me!” And anyone who has played a game with me when I am doing really badly will probably agree. And since I am still whining about that game of [...]
