I forgot to write about this in the post about my brother’s wedding. Oh well, I felt this thing neded its own post anyway. Warning! I’m probably about to sound like a very old woman. When the dancing started, all the songs were pretty good. After their first dance, they played the song that was …

He Was AS Happy As A Kid In A Vending Machine!
When your kid goes missing, usually they find him in a cupboard, or under the stairs, or maybe hiding behind a shed. Perhaps he’s hanging out in the neighbour’s yard. But who would think that the kid could have gotten inside an arcade claw machine at a bowling alley? But this one did. Somehow, he …

Another Sibling Officially Married Off
I should write about this before it gets too crazy late. My brother got married a couple of weeks ago. Well, this was the big affair that they had been planning out anyway. They technically got married in City Hall back in 2012, but since you can’t invite everybody you’d want at your wedding to …
Let’s Play A Game Of Hide And…What Happens Next?
This came up in “This is true” almost a month ago. Pia Farrenkopf, or at least they think it’s Pia Farrenkopf, was found mummified in the back of her car in her garage. Tests seem to indicate she died in 2008. Authorities aren’t saying it’s her for sure until they get conclusive evidence like dental …

What Happens To A Guide Dog When It Retires?

Late Happy Birthday Trix Wishes
So…as seems to be the thing lately, I’m late with marking some important Trixie dates. A week ago Wednesday, she turned 9, and this Tuesday that just passed was the day she came home with me…while I wore that big ol’ knee brace. That was 7 years ago. Woe. So, I’m going to do my …
It’s Our First Tansiversary!
Har har that was corny. It’s April 6, a day that became special last year. Why? Because it’s Tans and my graduation day. On that day, we officially became a team, and the next day, we came home together. So, Tans has officially lived through a year of my crazy life…and still appears to be …
Tans’s Dog Day Anniversary Was Yesterday
I don’t have much time to write this, but I figured I would try. Yesterday marks the anniversary of when I got Tansy. Can anyone else believe that’s possible? The only way I know for sure is that dates don’t lie. She came into my room in her maniacal fashion, and I pretty much fell …
Kids React More To Rotary Phones
So, there was a bonus video of kids reacting to rotary phones. It’s amazing that they could come up with that much good bonus footage. Here it is. Enjoy. I feel really really old. Apparently I’m supposed to be dead by now!
