RIP
Wednesday, April 16th, 2008I recently murdered the roach who had taken up residence in my garage.

A Little Christmas Miracle
Friday, December 21st, 2007There has been a new addition to my household this holiday season.
I adopted, of all things, a miniature poinsettia plant that was abandoned at my work.
