On Father’s Day.

Me and my Daddy in 2010   Yesterday was Father’s Day, and from a casual perusal of the interwebs, a lot of people have some pretty jacked up relationships with their dads. Or, with the father(s) of their kid(s).   This is quite understandable. Sad, but understandable.   While I’ve written a bunch of posts…

Some Saturday Stuff- June 8th

Good Saturday morning! The remnants of Andrea have passed, and the sun is out shining brightly here in Dirty Jerz. I’m in a mess of pain- back, legs, particularly my left thigh, and shoulders. I took Zoe out alone on Thursday, and have been paying for it since. Thing is, we live in an apartment…

ME-llennials

Not sure who created the graphic mocking Time’s, I just stole it from my friend Joel’s Facebook page.       Three years ago, annoyed with my generation’s seeming obsession with all things disposable, I wrote a scathing post at my old blog, Far Above Rubies:     On any given day, I log into…

Purity punditry.

(Polite Conversation)     Z has been acting so abominably of late, I’ve taken to fantasizing of locking myself in the bathroom and screaming bloody murder.

What dreams may come.

    I woke up from a long nightmare this morning. In this dream, I was in my mother’s house, sitting on the floor of the living room. Angry and sad that Joscelyne was dead. Angry and sad because I felt that only I truly cared anymore.   I got up and headed out to…

True or false.

    The above photograph of a fourth grade science test made the rounds on various websites and blogs a few weeks ago, and I saw it in my News Feed on Facebook. My friend Kathy posted it and questioned if it’s a fake. I looked at it, did a quick facepalm, and wrote that…

Some Saturday Stuff- May 4th.

I was smiles. Z, not so much.     May the fourth be with you, happy Kentucky Derby Day, and an early happy Cinco de Mayo, to you, too. I didn’t have time to post this Saturday Stuff until now because I’ve been pretty busy. Errands, cafe time with Z and K and then the…

Sing about me.

  Jos and Zoe, a month before her death.       When the sad news that 27 year old Matthew Warren, son of Pastor Rick Warren, had taken his own life broke this weekend, millions of Christians stopped to say a prayer for the grieving family. I prayed, too, and then stopped to think…

Easter Hope.

The Good Shepherd choir at the 10AM mass yesterday.   Happy Easter! I hope you had a blessed Triduum. I definitely did. I went to Good Friday service and was moved by the seven last words of Jesus. “Into your hands I commit my spirit.” How powerful. I’m challenged to commit myself to God, not…
