• opening up and bursting forth

    Today was a day to dip my feet in the Pondering Pool. Much like when I read Wave of Modulation, I find myself reading the words and looking at the pictures and being touched and moved to places I don’t normally allow myself to go. I can’t really go into deep how bad May sucked,…

  • you asked for it…

    Okay, Okay…loud and clear. 1. Something ‘Sparkly’ 2. Something ‘Dull’ 3. Something ‘Colorful’ Yeah, I know…shut up. Be nice. BAD MONTH.

  • MAY 2006 SUCKED

    It would have been FAR too easy to leave the most horrible month of my life THUS far end without the last day sucking like a mutha. and to top it off, i forgot to screw the lid back on my 3.99 bottle of wine last night.

  • is it so wrong???

    I have the last episode of American Idol saved on my Tivo. There are a few things I just can delete. I had like 19 episodes of “Nip Tuck” just in case I ever needed to get in the mood, but Shaun made me delete them to make room for his episodes of “24” So…

  • The Face Of Braces

    My baby girl is mastering the art of taking a picture without showing off her braces. She looks really cute with them, but she doesn’t agree. I hope everyone had a great weekend. We lived through it and only took something like 1200 pictures. This post feels forced huh? I’m stressing about the wedding 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.
