Random and Odd

ok. not good. probably bad.

  • Misunderstandings…as always.

    ‘Cita was telling me a story that her husband was telling her. He was talking about a show he saw in Las Vegas and he was describing what was was going on and said, “Then the people came out and were Flamingo dancing….” ‘Cita interrupted him and said, “Flamingo dancing? You mean Flamenco dancing?” She…

  • If you break in, avoid the kids rooms. They are armed.

    There are two rooms in this house that I do not go into. The frustration of entering these two rooms is just too overwhelming and I’m likely to have my head burst just thinking about this post. One room would be the teenage daughters’ room. (punctuation correct?) This room is (pause for the eye rolling,…

  • Garble Garble…drowning…garble…

    This weekend: Shot a wedding, shot twins, shot my family, shot Shaun’s family. Officially HATE taking pictures now. My tooth is so abscessed that ‘it’s a wonder I’m not dead’. The brakes that were just installed began smoking outside the dentists office (no, i’m not even going to make a joke about that either) Can…

  • Ooochie Momma

    Ode to my tooth: Toofer, please do not hurt anymore. I have taken advantage of you. I have treated you like a whore. I promise to brush and keep you all clean. I will floss all the junk and remove all that is green. Oh toof of mine, stop hurting my head the pounding is…

  • Most Random Request

    I know I have at least 500 lurkers and this is where I am calling in ALL of you to do me the lamest favorite ever: CLICK HERE and vote for SACRAMENTO VS. WHITNEY (no, I don’t have a kid that goes to Whitney…but as a community, we are pissed that Roseville is trying to…

  • Karma wastes no time on me.

    (taken last night after I tried to get up and fell back down) Shaun was in the bathroom, bent over getting the last remaining pieces of Q-tips and hair balls the size of small dogs from behind the toilet when I walked up behind him quietly and grabbed his ass while yelling, “GOOSE!” He smacked…

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.
