Random and Odd

ok. not good. probably bad.

  • Actually, quite proud

    I decided I was going to use the ‘new’ cup today.  It’s a shot glass compared to the coffee cups I usually use, but I didn’t want to feel like a sentimental sap and shoving it in the part of the cupboard that is ‘off limits’. When I was a little girl…*wavy flashback and strange…

  • If my weekend was more exciting I would probably explode.

    Did you detect the sarcasm? Saturday Shaun and I went on our thrift store hunt.  He manages to find really cool clothes and I end up looking at coffee cups and purses from the 70’s.  I’m the worst thrift shopper in history. It seems like every time I go in those stores the smell makes…

  • Oh, the things I will realize!

    As Shaun and I were dodging a car coming straight for us in the Safeway parking lot, I realized that If I were to die, the last post that you would read was about my cootchie and my boobs. As great as a book that would make for my daughters to write about me after…

  • Anxiety

    Back to the list of words.  I’ve been stuck on Anxiety.  You would think I would have a 5000 word essay on anxiety, but honestly, I’m so tired of it. I am tired of saying it. I’m tired of hearing it. I’m tired of having it. I called the head doctor about it. “up the…

  • Happy Birthday Mommy!

    I love you! My gift to you…a promise to come visit, very soon. :) WE LOVE YOU!

  • Wireless

    Taking a break from the list of emotions. The next one up is ‘Anxiety’ and honestly, I don’t have the energy to write about it right now. A month ago, Shaun dropped his phone in the garbage.  Normally that wouldn’t be a problem, but the bottom of our garbage can outside is a cesspool of…

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.
