candy isn’t that sweet…

my dad brought miss candy down to meet the rocker and i last night. let me say this, candy LOVES my dad. LOVES. not likes, LOVES. we walked the two dogs, and candy (off leash, i might add) never got more than 5 feet away from him. it was really cute. she kept looking back to see if he was with her. funny. we went out to dinner, and left candy with daisy. candy tried to beat up daisy, daisy backed down. it was funny to see daisy put in her place like that. anyway, we got back to the … [Read more...]

what about houston in april?

i really need a vacation. i've needed one for a long time. my last vacation was a personal hell, and i've not done anything to remedy the situation... my mom has suggested that i go visit her in houston for easter. sounds like an interesting proposition. it's just for a long weekend... but it sounds a bunch better than being here. i'd love to go to ireland again. i'm a bit miffed at myself for listening to the rocker and not purchasing a ticket when i could have gone for a trip, all … [Read more...]

sharks vs. detroit

the rocker won tickets to the sharks vs. detroit when he went to this signing thing for his friend. so, there he was, waiting in line to get this jersey signed, and they announced, you won tickets to the sharks vs. detroit game. he has yet to tell his friend that he didn't pay for the seats. his friend thinks he did. anyway, we went to the game, and it was pompom night. yeah for me! i got to wave pompoms around everytime the sharks scored. actually, i thought i might be a red wings fan … [Read more...]

couples therapy part 1

the rocker and i had our first session of couples therapy last night. very interesting stuff. we really didn't talk much about us. we talked about him for a minute, we talked about me for a minute... we talked about us for a minute. all in all, i think it is going to be a helpful process. we are both going to learn how to tell each other what we want. and, despite what i may think, the rocker has moved in. the therapist said so. gotta go with the impartial third party. it's the right … [Read more...]

the sabercats win it again!

so, saturday night was sabercats night. the rocker and i went out to dinner at rockbottom, went to our favorite used record store, and then waited for the game to start. saturday nights give-a-way was a 2 pin set... signifying the 10 year anniversary of the team. kinda a stupid give-a-way. last week they passed out mouse pads with the schedule on them. i liked that. anyway, the rocker and i figured out how to bring beer into the game. the rocker really liked that, although the beer … [Read more...]

missey candy!

so, i'm talking to my dad today... he tells me that he is fostering a new dog, candy. isn't she so cute? some mean person dropped her at the santa clara county humane society! can you imagine? she is 13 years old, but very spry. i'm thinking that candy needs to come live with daisy and i... what do you think? couldn't we all use a little bit more 'fro in our lives? besides, daisy is becoming a "daddy's girl". i drew a picture for the rocker at the melvins concert on his palm. and he … [Read more...]

near-earth asteroid?

last night during dinner, the rocker asked me: "did you hear about the asteroid that came within 26,500 miles of hitting the earth today?" WHAT? where the hell was i yesterday? how much news have i really been missing? so, i have investigated the story. apparently 2004 FH, was discovered on monday, and is only about 100 feet in diameter. an asteriod this size, if it actually hit the earth, would more than likely burn up in the atmosphere. it might break some windows on the ground, but … [Read more...]

couples therapy

after the big fight, i made a decision. the rocker and i don't know how to communicate. i think it can be a common problem. i mean, you take a guy and a girl, put them in a room, tell them something and odds are they heard two different things. i know the rocker and i are like that. and then, there is the problem with us both needing to be right. in every situation. we argued about which cream cheese he used for his bagel last week... we argued about side of the bed i was going to sleep … [Read more...]
