• Goodbye 2009

    January — I was sporting my new dark hair and loving it.  I was almost one month into feeling better. We had just spent our first Christmas in 7 years in Shingletown with my family. It was a good month. What I learned: I only like my dark hair for about 2 months. February —…

  • Holy CRAP!

    I threw out my back on Thursday helping a co-worker get through some really lame paper work. I know, I know, I sound retarded saying I threw out my back doing paper work. Keep in mind I have thrown out my back sneezing, walking and washing my hair. Today, instead of tackling the kitchen cabinets,…

    I forgot to update you all on my instructor and his world record. 68 wingsuit formation world record! He sent out this awesome video of the skydivers coming out of the planes that the news chopper caught.

  • MY So-Called Life…

    I’m ending this year of my blog with a lot of things I have learned. This is something that I have heard a million times in many ways, shapes and forms. “Life is short.” “You only get one life.” “Tomorrow is never promised.” Today I was in the kitchen all of the day. I made…

  • 2009 In Review

    Favorite Movie: Life of Brian. I know it’s not a movie that came out in 2009, but it’s the best movie I saw this year. I think the second favorite would have to be The Hangover. Favorite Song: If Today Was Your Last Day by Nickeback. It was overplayed on the radio, but every time…

Why I Started My Personal Blog

I started Random and Odd back in 2002 or so because it was all the rage and my mom and sister were perpetually online either playing games or finding recipes.
I decided that I wanted to be able to write what I was going through as a parent and keep them updated on what the girls were saying or doing. It started out just a way for me to vent, rant or laugh about life.
It turned into more when other people outside of my mom and sister started reading it and through the years it was just a place for Stuff Portrait Fridays, meeting other people blogging and making those people friends. It was a place to put down a photo I took that I was proud of and then it was a place to talk about the traveling I was doing. Now it’s just a dumping ground of bullshit that is swirling in my head.

I want to get back to writing, taking photos and traveling and doing a complete redo of R & 0 was needed to document.
Enjoy the minimalist look.
