I’m watching the Soul Train Awards, and loved that Charlie Wilson was highlighted in the beginning. … but when they said Chrisette Michele I thought they said Yvette Michelle and remembered this song from back in the day that I love! That was Michelle – this is Chrisette Both ladies can sing, and their last [...]

[make sure you've read the previous post "wizard 101: the experiment" before you read this one. Or it won't make much sense ] Once back into the game this afternoon, it didn’t take long for my newly acquired “love interest” to find me online. Please note that his name has been obscured for obvious reasons. [...]

You may, or may not know that we are a three-computer household. We just couldn’t function any other way. So, when the girls sign up to play an online game, I usually sign up too so I can make sure it “does what it says it does” and that the parental filters work as they [...]

I keep a gratitude journal. It’s here on this website – you just can’t see it. Maybe one day I’ll make it visible but for now it’s just mine. There’s also one in a spiral-bound notebook by my bed and one in a pretty, “proper” journal made specifically for gratuituous posts. Between the three, and [...]

Sometimes it’s nice just driving in silence. Take tonight for instance. We had just dropped Paris at her friends slumber party and Ciel had talked her into letting her borrow her iTouch. Ciel asked me to turn the radio off – and I did. But she wasn’t singing like she usually did “Can you play [...]

Three hundred and fifty guests, at a rough estimate. [...]

Did you ever have that feeling that life was just humming along – and you were right there humming along with it? Then BANG!! You woke up and found it really was a dream after all. The shit doesn’t change. It’s just the depth that varies.

When you look at me, who do you see? If you see me at work, you may see a confidence that doesn’t always show in every day passing. If you see me with my children, you may see a disciplinarian in control of the situation. But do you really know me? If you knew I [...]

So, there is a strange side to raising spiritually-aware children (and I know that my god-fearing friends will take this in the spirit it was written … pun intended) I’m not talking about the “church” type of spiritual. I’m speaking of all things ethereal, ghostly and well … spritual! I remember, back in the day [...]

… don’t wake me. I very rarely remember my dreams, and I don’t remember much of this one – in fact, considerably less than I did when I woke up – and it was extremely strange. I was in some kind of abandoned camp. As far as I remember, Paris and Ciel were there with [...]
