    Is still a long fucking paper. There are five chapters in a standard dissertation. One: The introduction. Easy peasy. Finished it in less than 8 weeks. Two: The literature review- 30-60 pages, including at least 50 references. Not easy. I try to be very concise with my word choice. You know, not using several words…

    Question

    I have bunches and boxes of old family photos. The problem is that not all of them are labeled on the back, and I have no idea who they are or when they were taken. What do I do with them? I feel guilty even thinking about throwing them away, but I have no one…

    JAWS has returned to the theaters for its 50th anniversary. I still remember when it first came out. I, however, have never seen it. I was too young to see it when it originally came out, and I love the water too much to have seen it since. It’s at our local theater, which is…

    Trauma Response

    It’s been four months since the accident. Some things are better, some are the same, and time still marches on. The truck was totaled. Well, there was $18,000 worth of damage done to it, enough that the insurance said she was toast. Bye, Denver. You were an excellent truck, and my husband loved you dearly.…

    Once Again….

    So, Friday the 16th of May, I had finally found the sideboard/buffet I wanted to replace the island in my kitchen that I frankly HATE. I had found one at our local Restore store. My elder son and I had found it a few days before, did the measuring thing, and then I had to…

    So, my doctor told me that the test came back ‘good’. What does that mean exactly? Well, despite the fact that I had 38% of my uterus showing signs of cancer (which I am told is better than 50%, which is where I roll my eyes and think really?) there was no sign that it…

    Well, as the title suggests, I am back from my cruise. Actually I have been back for two long weeks. Also had my surgery last week. Well, almost 10 days ago. For those that haven’t been paying attention, it was a Radical Hysterectomy, including all the bits that make up a woman. Why? Endometrial Cancer.…

    Gilligan’s Island

    Gilligan’s Island was a complete lie!!! This is why I think it was: The amount of luggage that was recovered from the boat. Let’s be real; they state that none of the luggage was lost in the storm. Did you see the hole in that boat? they’re lucky they didn’t lose any passengers. That was…

    Cruise, Day 4 & 5

    San Francisco was day 4. Not much to tell. It was windy, cold, and rainy off and on. We actually got of the boat anyway. We took a tour around the Bay, on a double decker bus- something that I have always wanted to do. However, there was no way in hell I was sitting…
