So far, this week has been a rough week for E. Why? Because E has a pretty bad canker sore on the tip of her tongue (on the right edge). It’s been hurting her so much that she finds it too painful to eat, drink and even sleep. Oh and she’s been drooling a lot too. Poor E. Hopefully, in another day or two it will hurt less. Otherwise, she’ll be eating only Cheerios everyday and I’m pretty sure that’s not a good diet. If only she’d try yogurt or popsicles, then I wouldn’t feel so worried about her food intake. Why doesn’t Cheerios hurt,Read More →

Ah, I am now officially on summer break!  Took my only final today and turned in the paper that I spent pretty much the entire weekend working on. My brain is fried. No, it hurts because I spent the last 48 hours thinking, analyzing and pretty much absorbed in writing a paper on Oedipus.  I am sooo over him now.  My own fault, really, since I procrastinated on writing the paper.  But hey, I wrote a 16 page paper when the minimum requirement was only 4 pages!  Talk about being an overachiever! More importantly I’m done for now!  But first I’m going to rest upRead More →

Ah, it’s only Monday and my brain is already going barabara. What’s barabara (pronounced bah-ra-bah-ra)?  It’s a Japanese onomatopoeia that means scattered; disperse; loose; disconnected; in pieces; in drops; rustling. So, yes, my brain is currently barabara…. Let’s talk about Jason for a little bit…as an update to how he’s doing and all…. Jason’s actually doing really great. Well, not great in the way that his illness has gone away and he is back to his old self again.  No, it’s great in the way that his inflammation levels have gone up slower than before, which in Jason terms means that it’s a good signRead More →

Well, it looks like it’s about time we find out who the giveaways go to! Everyone! Since I technically only had 5 comments, 1 of which is my sister and 2 are real life friends, I figure I might as well just give away to everyone (if they want it).  I’ll email each of you individually to see which one you want as well as other information. Thanks for playing! *By the way, I’m trying to avoid talking about Mother’s Day but I will post about it later….maybe…Read More →
