brrrrr….

January 16th, 2007 · No Comments · life

I’ve been hoping for some wintery weather lately because our unseasonable springlike weather has had me somewhat ill at ease.

Exposed

January 4th, 2007 · 1 Comment · life, work

There’s nothing quite like the moment when someone says….
“Hey, you have a big hole in the seat of your pants”
At this moment a few things go through your mind like…

Am I wearing underwear today?

How many people liked what they [...]
