I have to admit, when I first saw the Lincoln MKT I thought it looked, well, weird. Kinda shark-like mixed with a bit of a throwback to the old station wagon days. Even when I got inside, the thing seemed very long. The optional 3rd row of seats was way at the back of the bus. Honestly? My first … [Read more...]
A Sexual Crisis.
Recently I've been the butt of a few jokes. I'm not too concerned about it because I was prepared. I knew when I agreed to be interviewed for an article on women's sex drive that, chances were pretty good I was going to get some ribbing. But I don't mind. I think it is too important.In my opinion, … [Read more...]
Twilight New Moon Toronto Premiere. AKA: OMG! I am 13 Again!
OK. I loved the Twilight series. And, although many would disagree, my fave book was New Moon.

I also felt like it was somewhat unnecessary, all this space. But I have to admit, this vehicle surprised … [Read more...]

Then I realized and it hit me like a slap. You are gone. The sting is still with me, a dull ache that I can't ignore.Everywhere I … [Read more...]
A Beautiful Gift. And a Unique Gift Idea.
Today I wept. Not terribly surprising considering the recent loss of my mom, the crazy PMS I've been experiencing lately (anyone?), and my dad's pending move which represents a beginning of his new life and another step further away from my mom. But these were also tears of pride and joy.Today my … [Read more...]
