REVIEW: Pirates of the Caribbean At World’s End

May 31, 2007 – 12:02 am

~~ WARNING! PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: AT WORLD’S END SPOILERS AHEAD ~~
Yes, once again I have seen a movie that annoyed me
so much I am now compelled to write about it. It’s sad really. I really
enjoyed the first Pirates movie; and the second one, while not quite as
good as the first, was still a [...]

End of the ‘06 – ‘07 School Year

May 25, 2007 – 3:14 pm

Yes, my children’s education for the year came to a close yesterday. No more educating them. From now until Fall nothing of value will be crammed into their ungrateful skull cavities, items of potential import will be chased away until their brain stems putrefy into steaming wreckages of mush that will be hopelessly lost to [...]

Anika’s Broken Arm

May 19, 2007 – 1:41 pm

Yep, Anika has a broken arm.

Oh! Guess what. I’m playing on the church softball team this year. I’m
so excited! I [...]

Apron Musings

May 9, 2007 – 11:12 pm

I’m not terribly domestic. I don’t mind my house being messy (until the kids are in bed and I can actually sit in one place long enough to notice the sty), hate doing laundry, and loathe cooking. Well, that’s not exactly true.
I hate having company over when my house is doing its most impressive toxic [...]

Experimenting with Flora

May 8, 2007 – 11:07 pm

For many years now, my nickname has been The Plant Killer of Death, which seems rather redundant. Since I gave the nickname to myself, I suppose I’m the only one I can legitimately blame, but Plant Killer of Life seemed nonsensical the day I was dreaming up aliases for floricidal maniacs. Actually, Killer of Life [...]
