Random and Odd

ok. not good. probably bad.

  • Satan lives in Redding, California

    It’s hot enough for this to be his vacation home.  112 was yesterday’s expected high.  If you’re in a air conditioned home, that wouldn’t be so bad, but OUR AIR CONDITIONER BROKE!  My sister called in and had it fixed, but for 2 hours I felt my internal organs get to the point of boiling….

  • Home…sweeeet home…

    The wedding went well.  The drive back wasn’t as hairy as it was getting there. I guess we knew to expect hair pin turns and roads without markings.  The town is so small.  Emily (our GPS) couldn’t even find it.  It has 2 stores, but one is slightly of town and if you blinked, you…

  • A world away..

    Shaun and I are in Shelter Cove shooting a wedding.  The ride was scary as hell, but we have a room…and right out the door is the Pacific Ocean. Just what my kidney’s needed. Feeling 75% better. I could feel the prayers. Thank you. Keep an eye on my Flickr for the totally awesome pictures…

  • No. no. and no.

    I have an infection in my kidney. I have a cyst on the other kidney. I have gallbladder stones. None of them are going to kill me today, but they got me to thinking about my body very slowly shutting down.  There will be a doctor that is going to drain my kidney. I’m kinda…

  • Reno Hotel Death revisited…

    On Tuesday I started feeling sorta ‘weberly’ (a word I use to describe just not right) I felt a bladder infection coming on AGAIN.   This would be the third in a month.  Like I’ve mentioned before, Mom, It’s not from crazy monkey sex.  I called the doctor and they had me run to the lab…

  • Worried.

    Hey everyone, Shaun here.  Kristine is pretty sick right now, so you might have to somehow live without her for a few days.  The poor thing spent a solid 7 hours in the emergency room last night and didn’t even have a good looking male doctor helping her out.  After a bunch of tests and…

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.
