I technically haven’t been “home” since Monday. Work has been driving me bonkers with how crazy busy it’s been. I got home on Monday for 5 minutes and Brandon whisked me off to see “Taken”. Holy crap, Liam Neeson is scary. He really did carry the movie. If it was somebody else, that movie would not have been that good. But I digress. Tuesday was Spamalot night. I didn’t get home until 8 p.m. Brandon was nursing a stress/sinus headache when I got home so we just went to bed. Wednesday was yoga night. Brandon finally was available to go...

I had a feeling I might have done this before but for the life of me, I can’t find it on the blog. I guess if I can’t remember, then it never really happened. Since I got tagged bajillion times on Facebook for this, and for some reason I’m not even tired, here’s my random 25. I’m ambidextrous. Sort of. Think I was born a lefty but then was made to use my right hand. I write with my right. Shoot hoops and pick up heavy stuff with my left. I bat left because as a lefty forced to play...

My week came at me fast and left just as quickly. It seems like yesterday when I was just here, happily typing away, telling you guys about our hike at Holy Jim trail. Here we are, a week after. Went by me in a blink. Inauguration Day was also our 7th wedding anniversary. It was a new beginning for the country I live in and quite a momentous moment in my marriage. Last year, people said that America would rather elect a woman than a black man as president. Here stands Barrack Obama in front of millions, the day after...

Those who have been following my Twitter might have seen the drama of Friday. 2 weeks ago, Brandon went to the dermatologist to have a few spots on his face checked out. While there, the doctor insisted to just look him over and took a biopsy from this spot on his back. Friday was his follow up appointment and it turned out the one on the back is well on its way to become a melanoma. To be on the safe side, the derm scooped out the skin around the area and sent that to the lab as well. All...

I have been staying up passed my bed time this week. Case in point, see time stamp. It seems I just have a lot I want to do and I’m excited about all of them. I’ve been busy updating my experiences at the Temple and at the food blog with my cooking binge. I can’t tell you enough how much joy cooking give me. Now even more joyous that Brandon has the monopoly on dishes. It was like a runner’s high for me. I feel awesome having cooked something we can both enjoy. So I’ve been indulging in that little...

I watched “The Martian Child” this morning. The Martian Child thinks he’s from Mars. Others think he’s weird but his adoptive dad goes with it and accepts him anyway. I’ve always seen myself as an outsider since I was a kid. True, there were worse cases of “odd girls out” than how I feel, but I have never felt 100% belong anywhere. A part of me is always the odd girl out somewhere else. The geeklet among the “normal” people. But not geeky enough for the full-fledge geeks. The film snob among the mainstream Hollywood crowd. Not into the real...
