The Cheesecake is Rich

wants me to post more. Can I convince her that this is a bad plan? Let’s find out. (I can’t wait to go to Indiana again – this time next month I’ll be there!! Yay!) So I was driving to Blockbuster and talking to Mom about the no cable television thing and I point out [...]

My darling baby brother, Macaulay/Bill, kindly reminded me of one of the greatest parts of my entire wedding experience. And most of you were witness to this, but…what the hell, since when has redundancy ever stopped me? So, our rehearsal dinner was held at a Creole (?) restaurant in Cheesecake City. I chose it because [...]

Happy Father’s Day, dad! (For the record, I didn’t call before he went to work so I will call after he comes home). (And no, we haven’t heard from The Boy.)

Guess where I’m spending the weekend? If you guessed “Ohio”, to celebrate my older nephew’s third birthday, you are RIGHT. Pat yourself on the back. It’s a good thing I’m here on the Internet, because I have nothing to do at all. No packing, cleaning, taking the garbage out and of course I’m not supposed [...]

Happy Birthday to you! Happy Birthday to you! Happy Birthday the Boooooy! Happy Birthday to you! (He’s 14 now).

Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, Happy Birthday Macauley/Bill, and Gene and I are on vacation in Indiana after a fabulous run in Ohio. I think we’re leaving tomorrow. We had a marvelous late Xmas with our families. I gave Gene a Mr. T in your Pocket toy and my family gave me not one but [...]
