The war between us and Monkey Tail rages on. The chipmunks have also decided to get in on the battle, and they have allied themselves with Monkey Tail, which is no surprise. Last week the suet cake ran out because Monkey Tail and the chipmunks are huge pigs and ate all of it. So of [...]

First things first – I updated my beer list. It had been a while, so there are lots of new ones listed. I’ve had 75 beers! Only 225 to go!! We are heading out tonight so I can cross off a few more.
Last Friday we went to Grand Rapids to help Alexis celebrate her graduation. [...]

I don’t know if I mentioned it here or not, but I’ve been doing quite a bit of drawing and painting for the last couple of months. My BFF Amber gave me an art table a few months ago, and I decided to give it a go since I have some time on my hands. [...]

I heard recently that Polaroid film is making a comeback, thanks to the people at The Impossible Project. They started selling black & white film a few weeks ago, but I haven’t been able to get my paws on any….yet. Color film is supposed to be available sometime this summer.
I freaking love Polaroid. Instant cameras [...]

On Friday night we realized that the tub in the master bathroom has a crack on it. We figured this out because we were downstairs watching TV and noticed some weird wet spots on one of the drop ceiling tiles. I’m not sure if I mentioned here that we also recently noticed that the shower [...]

Things have been super busy for me lately. Good thing I don’t have a pesky job to interfere with my swinging social life.
On Sunday we headed to Casa de Vargo in lovely Sparta for a VII reunion. It was so much fun, and I’m so so happy that everyone was able to make it. Even [...]

Mike & I decided to take a road trip to South Bend on Friday. He has been playing the Star Trek Online beta, and some cheesy fast food joint called Del Taco had some kind of code that he wanted on their cups. The nearest one is in South Bend, so we decided to go [...]

Mike, George and I went out for brekkie yesterday morning. After we ate, we headed over to the furniture store to look at bean bag chairs. Mike and I are hoping to find a couple large bean bags that can be used for extra seating when we have guests. Anyway, George met this hot chick [...]
