Well, that was unintended (Blogtober Days 13-18)
I did not mean to take nearly a week off, but after last weekend’s whirlwind trip to Washington DC and getting back to work, it just threw me off. Now that I have had some time to decompress and think about my trip, I have all sorts of thoughts. The one thing that I wanted…

Ten Things About Me. (Blogtober Day 3)
Ten things about me, that are probably ten things too many. I am a Leap Year baby. Yep, born on Feb. 29, 1972 (you can do the math) I celebrate my birthday on non-Leap Years on the 28th. It causes all sorts of computer chaos when filling out forms. I was born in …

Fantasy vs. Reality (blogtober day 2)
