Heavy Heart…
I FINALLY got a call about my stolen, yet returned with no money, wallet. The detective seemed very cool about it and read the report and it actually reported the whole thing as it happened. How the woman picked it up, looked inside, put the wallet with her male friend in wheelchair and then cruised…

*gag*
I woke up this morning thinking about how much I hate the consistency and flavor of eggs. It came to mind because I started Atkins and there is so little you can eat in the breakfast arena. Eggs are the staple. Eww. Gross. Ack. Gag! Then I started thinking about how picky I am about…

Conversations with Shea
I was in the car listening to a Prince song and decided to call and sing it to my wonderfully gay friend, Nicky. When her phone ‘rang’ it was a Melissa Etheridge song. I never pass up the opportunity to pick on my friend about anything that has to do with her sexuality, because honestly…

Sad. Really Sad.
Saturday we decided to venture out. This is what we found. It was hard to believe that I lived in a town with this house and never even knew it existed. As I walked through the house, my heart broke at every wood panel covered with graffiti, all the beautiful hardwood floors covered in paint…

spf: Music Tribute

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.
