• Proof!

    Dan called me the other day and sounded like hell. “What’s wrong?” I asked. “Bring me soup…please…I feel sick.” During my whole marriage he insisted that anytime I was ill, that it was all in my head. I try not to hold that against him after all these years, but it’s my first reaction to…

  • Remember; “I wish”?

    I wish for something, you comment back granting me that wish and then fuck it up and then ask for your own wish. Example: randomandodd: I wish I could get it together. you: GRANTED! but once you get it all together you realize it’s in boxes and on a U-haul to nowhere.  I wish I…

  • Quit Smoking — Take 1

    I started taking Chantix yesterday.  I read the pamphlet that came with the quit-smoking-pills and knew that I would probably have to deal with the side effects as they came. After the first pill kicked in, I got overwhelmingly tired.  One of the side effects mentioned I would be tired, but since I had been…

  • Crossroads

    I’m being told by the higher powers that I need to write one of those heart wrenching posts. I don’t really know if I have it in me, but since she wants to hear depressing…let’s talk about my first marriage. JUST KIDDING! Believe it or not, that book I said I was working on, is…

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.
