• Oh so true…

    BusyDad.com wrote a post the other day titled, ‘If Jeopardy was written by parents’. I had to laugh, because he nailed it on the head! Of course, I would kick his ass in the ‘Teenager’ section of Double Jeopardy! I was watching Family Feud with Alyx (11 years old) and I swear I looked like…

  • Click, clickity, click.

    I’m sure there is a term for people who get forget that life isn’t Tivoed. I can’t tell you how many times I have tried to rewind what someone said. Last night I was laying in bed and I was in deep thought about something so interesting that I was zoning out deep. A sound…

  • pressing charges…

    I dropped my wallet tonight and someone picked it up. They also turned it in…after they took all my money out of it. They have this all on surveillance camera and have a copy of her drivers licenses.  I am pressing charges. I’ve been lucky in the past and wish I didn’t have to press…

  • It was good.

    This was my favorite part of the trip to Redding…the interaction between everyone. We were all tired from driving or cooking or chasing this little ball of monkey fun.  When are they going to create the transport machine like on Star Trek? Your weekend?

  • SPF: Me in Music

    May 23rd is (SELF or SOMEONE) YOU IN MUSIC (playing an instrument, dancing, getting ready for a dance getting into music..whatever) Me and Jr. Prom date, Bron Sullivan.  I have the most wonderful memories of Bron.  The memory of getting this dress is one of my absolute favorites.  We danced most of the slow songs….

  • Another season…

    The season finale of American Idol was ‘ight. Brian Adams was looking preeety good. The best part of show is when Carrie Underwood came out and sang, “Last Name”. “Whoa, Shaun. Whoa…uh, what is she wearing under that dress?” “Carrie Underwear.”

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.
