My brother Jonathan has been telling me for a while now that I need to see the television show Lost. I kept putting it off because it’s a show that’s still running and I hate starting things that I can’t quite finish yet. My sister Adiel got into the act and told me that I [...]

I was cooking this past Saturday and wanted some music to listen to. I was in a fairly good mood so I figured it would be safe to listen to some music that could never be described as happy. So I put on Counting Crows August and Everything After. For a portion of my life [...]

Yesterday was the Sunday we specially celebrate the resurrection of our Jesus. Some call it Easter Sunday. Some call it Resurrection Sunday. Some, like me, aren’t sure we like Easter Sunday, but think Resurrection Sunday is too clunky a title. I was thinking about writing a post Saturday that would publish on Sunday that would [...]

The Road Less Anthropomorphized (Gabrielle)

I have an unusual relationship with the roads in Peoria. The relationship is unusual in that I actually know what the main roads are called and, more or less, where they go. This is unusual for me at least because in Erie I didn’t know many roads even though I’d grown up there. I knew [...]

Mmm, Pizza (Gabrielle)

Well, it looks like it’s that time again when I go about my daily life with a clove of garlic in each ear and the oil of oregano not far away. Yep, my fever turned into a cold which turned into an ear infection. Fun times.
So for the next few days it’ll be cotton [...]
