I think this whole argument made me delusional
2008-07-19 12:24:00 The other day we were driving along in our automobile and the kids were in the back doing what they always do; arguing. I wasn’t listening at first, but apparently the fight was about Power Rangers. Caleb swears the Power Rangers have a sword. But Skyler is pretty sure they don’t. Caleb: Yes, they do. Skyler: No, they don’t. Caleb: Yes, they do. Skyler: No, they don’t. Well you get the picture. Then Spencer piped in with, “Skyler, do you even watch Power Rangers?” Skyler: Well I’ve seen it. Caleb: Well I watch it all the time so I should no. Skyler: Well I think you are delusional from watching too much Power Rangers. Caleb: I am not delusional. Skyler: Do you even know what delusional means? Caleb: Umm…Mom, what does “delusional” mean? Me: I’m not in this argument. Just leave me out of it. Caleb: Well we just need to know what delusional means. Me: It means crazy. Caleb: (looking at Skyler) What?!? You calling me cr...

GRAMMAR MADE EASY IN 23 STEPS!
2008-06-09 20:28:00 GRAMMAR MADE EASY IN 23 STEPS! My several years in the word game have learnt me several rules: 1.Avoid alliteration. Always. 2.Prepositions are not words to end sentences with. 3.Avoid cliches like the plague. (They're old hat.) 4.Employ the vernacular. 5.Eschew ampersands & abbreviations, etc. 6.Parenthetical remarks (however relevant) are unnecessary. 7.It is wrong to ever split an infinitive. 8.Contractions aren't necessary 9.Foreign words and phrases are not apropos. 10.One should never generalize. 11.Eliminate quotations. As Ralph Waldo Emerson once said: "I hate quotations. Tell me what you know." 12.Comparisons are as bad as cliches. 13.Don't be redundant; don't use more words than necessary; it's highly superfluous. 14.Profanity sucks. 15.Be more or less specific. 16.Understatement is always best. 17.Exaggeration is a billion times worse than understatement. 18.One-word sentences? Eliminate. 19.Analogies in writing are...

Things that made me happy today, and things that didn't
2008-06-07 05:02:00 As I was driving to work today I passed a field of horse and their gangly-legged babies. The babies were all laying over flat on their sides, twitching their tales. It was apparently nap time in the nursery.My third patient of the day called me a "fucking cunt" when I refuse to give him any narcotics until he produced a ride.I parked by a Jasmine vine that smelled so heavenly I just wanted to sit there forever and breath that wonderful scent.While I was helping another nurse clean an incontinent, demented 92 year-old nursing home patient she somehow managed to kick me in the chest. Who knew a wizened up little old lady had that much flexibility?The wind was blowing and it cleared all the haze away so the mountain tops were so clearly visible they looked not more than a mile away. It was in the eighties and yet the peaks are still snowy.I had to spend half of my shift in triageI saw an eagle.A four year-old puked down my leg in triage.

Salmon and Pesto - a match made in heaven?
2008-06-06 15:39:00 Wild Sockeye Salmon with organic basil pestoLast night was a busy one again and further complicated by the girls being out of school earlier, 3 dogs, and T. having to work late. Usually I get the meal all ready to go and then take the girls to whatever we have going on that evening and T. can either finish the meal or just heat heat what I have made up. Until I get into some sort of routine (not very good with routines!) everything will be a little hectic. We made the most of it though and had dinner ready in under an hour so we were just about done by 7:30.Last weekend when we on our weekly pilgrimage to Costco I saw that they had some IQF (indivifual quick frozen) wild Alaskan Sockeye Salmon. Yes it was expensive but seeing as I am not eating much meat now I thought it was totally worth it. I was right. This fish was delicious. I only cooked up one piece for the girls to split and I guess I should have done 2. They were done in no time! We topped ours with some basil pes...

2,000 Toys Have Made The Long Trip to Iraq
2008-06-06 14:14:00 A picture of how toys can be a real joyful support, even in a war-torn country like Iraq. This is the story from the internet. From Dailypress, about how toys could give warmth to Iraqis children.The bar in Shirley McGee's sitting room is brimming with toys — teddy bears, stuffed animals, dolls, soccer balls. You name it, and it's there, but for a limited time only.Each week, after collecting donations from all over the Peninsula, McGee and her family pack and send the toys to Iraq, where her son-in-law, Sgt. Matthew Jensen, of the 202nd Military Police Camp, is stationed. To date, more than 2,000 toys have made the long trip to Iraq, finding themselves in the arms of hundreds of Iraqi children, many of whom had nothing to call their own until that point."These kids have never been into a Toys 'R' Us, or walked into a 7-Eleven to get a Slurpee," said McGee. "All around them is fighting, death and destruction, so if the toys we send can offer them a little happiness and bring a...
