Oxycodone: a dialogue

Ever since the hubs broke his leg real good, he’s been taking Oxycodone for the pain.
Wikipedia describes this drug as “an opioid analgesic medication synthesized from opium-derived thebaine.”
After living with someone taking this, I’m beginning to see it more as “that half-drunk idiot you never wanted your brother to hang out with.”
Here’s the [...]

A Pictoral Update

Life’s been a little rough around here, what with the Hubs breaking his leg so expertly and having his work situation equally precarious.
To draw you a picture, I’ve felt kind of like this:

(I’m the one on the boat)
Or maybe it’s not so dramatically dangerous as that. Maybe it’s more like this:

requesting life’s rollercoaster to be more like the It’s A Small World ride

Hey there! Did ya have a good Fourth of July?!
The 4th here was great. And I have a video of the fireworks we saw in our little Bainbridge Island harbor to prove it.

Ah, yes, it was lovely. I even ran my second 5K that morning and managed to move around afterwards [...]

Hair’s to You, Mo’Nique

I have to give a Holla! to Mo’Nique. Yay, Mo’Nique!
Not because she gave an amazing performance in Precious which I have not seen yet but heard it’s great and it’s in my queue. Not because she won an Oscar on Sunday. Not because she’s inspired me to change my name to Wen’Dy. [...]

a request for good thoughts and prayers

I’m worried. Hello Kitty has been like this in the Kid’s room for days.

I’m not sure what happened. She’s gotten so pale.
I’d ask her what’s wrong, but she couldn’t answer anyway since she has no mouth.
