UCF July 2010 in West (by God) Virginia

Right now–AS I TYPE THIS–members of the UCF (besides myself) are sitting in my living room. Here are some pictures from our adventures so far. Jeri and the Very Small House (more…)

Rest in Peace Senator Byrd

As I mentioned to my friend Erin on twitter, I think it is fitting that the death of Senator Byrd has created an extra long Independence Day weekend to West Virginians. Most who have never lived here do not understand precisely what Senator Robert C. Byrd meant to the state and its residents. They know he [...]

Get on Out There and Saunter!

It’s World Sauntering Day! Someone needs to go saunter for me, since I’m incapable of it yet.

Celebration of Another Year Around the Sun

Happy Birthday today to two people, to my brother, who I’m sure is now short of sleep taking care of my beautiful new niece, and to Gina, best wife a girl could want. ;)

Towel Day!

Don’t forget your towel! This planet has — or rather had — a problem, which was this: most of the people living on it were unhappy for pretty much all of the time. Many solutions were suggested for this problem, but most of these were largely concerned with the movement of small green pieces of paper, [...]

My Fabulous Weekend, Part I: Newport Aquarium

Those of you who follow me on Twitter probably noticed I was in Cincinnati for the weekend. What I was doing was visiting friends (Susan, Andy, Heather & Andy & Heather’s offspring), and eating my weight in ice cream. It was a very good weekend. Saturday was gorgeous, and we all went to the aquarium. Although she [...]

Martin Luther King Jr

Loving Your Enemies 7 November 1957 … So I want to turn your attention to this subject: “Loving Your Enemies.” It’s so basic to me because it is a part of my basic philosophical and theological orientation—the whole idea of love, the whole philosophy of love. In the fifth chapter of the gospel as recorded by Saint [...]

The Cats and the Tree

“What? Me? I wouldn’t attack the Christmas tree! No way!” “Pay no mind to the furry gift under the tree.”

Back to the Grind

And we’re back to work. It was an exciting vacation. I baked–a lot. And I branched out from cookies and made breads as well: challah, Italian bread, pumpkin bread, and cranberry walnut bread. We had the family Christmas gathering which was insane and chaotic but also a lot of fun. (We made Lithuanian cookies again, which added [...]

What Could This Be?

Why it looks like a blog! (blows dust off top of bookcase) Looks like someone has been neglecting the place. As the physical house is getting cleaned today, the likelihood of anything more entertaining appearing here is quite low. But you’re more than welcome to make yourself comfortable in the interim. Plenty of cookies and legal beverages. Have [...]

Merry Christmas!

Adeste, fideles, laeti triumphantes; Venite, venite in Bethlehem. Natum videte Regem angelorum. Deum de Deo, lumen de lumine, Parturit virgo mater, Deum verum, genitum, non factum. Venite adoremus, venite adoremus, Venite adoremus, Dominum. En grege relicto, humiles ad cunas Vocati pastores approperant: Et nos ovanti gradu festinemus. Venite adoremus, venite adoremus, Venite adoremus, Dominum. Stella duce, Magi Christum adorantes, Aurum, thus, et myrrham dant munera. Jesu infanti corda praebeamus. Venite adoremus, [...]

Christmas Eve

Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse. The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, In hopes that St Nicholas soon would be there. The children were nestled all snug in their beds, While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads. And mamma in her ‘kerchief, and I [...]

Yo, Bro

I’ve joked for years that most guys I know treat me like the little sister they never wanted. Now I have further proof. Over a year ago, I came home to discover a surprise package. Why yes, I did in fact receive six bottles of bird vomit. How lucky am I? So yesterday, I received yet another package [...]
