As I foster and develop my interest in photography, I find that I particularly enjoy taking photos of people, nature and interesting architecture. When those three subjects can be combined, I am especially pleased with a shot.This is one of my favorites, taken at Wayfarers Chapel in Palos Verdes at Audrey’s baptism, a special day.It’s...

Thanks, Char!
When I move I know I’m going to miss those last minute phone calls from friends inviting me to come over, especially ones where the friends say “Come over and get your Christmas present!” like Char did this afternoon. It was a fun visit. And a fun present expertly chosen off my Wish List. Thanks,...
I’m having fun…I’m having fun…I’m having fun…
Right? Yes, I’m having fun, I swear it. No really, it’s not that bad. I had my first real shift at W-S last night, 6pm-close. Can I just say that I would much rather stand at a cash register for 4.5 hours than do the closing thing, where you have to restock stuff for half...
It. Is. Finished.
So I’m driving home from APU tonight, cruising along Huntington, singing at the top of my lungs (I do that when I’m alone) and as the song (from the Martin Guerre soundtrack) reaches it’s crescendo it hits me: I have my Bachelors Degree. I start to cry. I know, I know. This may sound very...
A few items of business:
In case you’re interested in planning your shopping trips to the Santa Anita Mall in advance, I’ll be there to ring up all of your W-S purchases this Wednesday (11/28) 6pm-close and Sunday (12/2) 7:30pm-close. Don’t forget: December 15th…If you don’t know what that is and want to know more details (and you’re not a...
"Ooh, too big of a gesture."
Pretty much everyone is aware of my keen interest in Hollywood and the stories & scandals of celebs. One year, a friend gave me a subscription to People Magazine, something I can’t justify buying for myself but salaciously enjoyed each week. Fortunately I have other friends who share this same morbid curiosity. With one friend...
4. No wait. Make that 5.
2 Birdies2 baby rats/mice1 grasshopper 5 presents that Quizmo has brought me since I moved in less than one month ago. The 5th “arrived” this afternoon.
I’m a winner. (Literally.)
Through my usual blog-hopping, I found Absolutely Plum a while back. (She’s one of those insanely talented & inspiring folks, like Oh Happy Day. This, my friends, is why blogging is addicting.) But guess what! You know those contests & give-a-ways that some blogs have? Well, I WON!I’m just not one of those people who...
Notable Quotables
I like quotes. I’m a collector of quotes, of sorts. On Quoteland this morning I noticed that they had some interesting categories, including bread, eggs & homosexuality. (Who knew quotes about such topics would be so notable?) I was of course curious about what might be contained in these sections, so I thought I’d give...
Christmas is coming! Christmas is coming!
Crate & Barrel would have been my second choice for a holiday retail job. So many great things at great prices! I want this and this and this to add to my seasonal decor.****I LOVE the holidays!
