Playing with the new feature…

WordPress says that my location can be detected if I opt-in to their new geotag system. So I’m trying it out via the blog. Find me!
Follow up: I played with the new feature last night, and took a look at where it actually points me today. I did an auto detect geotag and didn’t [...]

Humor is not funny…

I read this article today and unfortunately, agreed with it: 
http://www.chicagotribune.com/features/family/chi-1108-funnygirlnov08,0,5882566,full.story 
The article talks about how men are often intimidated by women with a good sense of humor. The author was prompted to explore the topic when he felt a bit intimidated by his girlfriend’s ability to build on his humor – “God forbid, that this [...]

Getting emotional in the health club…

The health club is not a place I usually get emotional. If I’m feeling any emotion, it’s usually hatred at my body or the treadmill because every now and then I feel like I want to fall off the treadmill due to fatigue. Other than that, I’m concentrating on getting the workout done and am not [...]

Who kidnapped my ghouls??

It’s nearly six o’clock and not one Kate Gosselin wig-wearing kid?! Maybe the 39 degree wind chill is keeping the Frankensteins away. (gee, it can’t be Halloween in Chicago unless there’s a wind chill…or snow…and luckily this year, no snow…) Since it’s Saturday, I loaded up on the candy. I hope I get some witches and [...]

Intrigued…

Watch out Jon Hamm, Matt Bomer’s giving you a run for your suit and fedora. I just checked out Mr. Bomer’s new show, White Collar, on USA Network. I was impressed not only with Mr. Bomer’s suits (they appear to fit him very well) and acting, but also the rest of the show. Smart people [...]

No ideas, no connecting the dots, just some boring thoughts…

My brain hasn’t been coming up with much lately. All it can deal with is the mundane details of everyday life, like cleaning, doing the laundry, and going to the gas station so my car doesn’t run out of gas – snore. I think it’s just stressed out with lots of details and mundane tasks. The [...]

Thanks for nothing

Out of nowhere, I just saw that Mr. Penske, who was suppose to buy Saturn, isn’t. No warning. No rumblings. I guess I’m a fool for sticking with them for 16 years. And of course my dealership’s site has absolutely nothing about what’s going on.
I am VERY unhappy.

Bears rack up another win

This Jay Cutler guy’s performing pretty well. I love the dramatic last minute wins (too bad we didn’t have that at Green Bay.) Hope the Bears keep it up!! Love to see ‘em win.

Tired…

I’ve been too tired to come up with something fascinating for this thing. I’ve been dealing with contracts and estimates and contractors and reluctant co-owners. I’ve been going through my pop’s books (many, many, many) and dealing with a computer that seems to be having memory problems and is overheating this past week – grr. And to [...]
