• I don’t normally do this…

    I leave the American Idol break down to Cat. Anyone that has ever read her AI weekly updates know that you don’t even have to watch the show to be cracking up after reading her reviews. I normally leave horribly long comments (which as you all are witness to – I’m not very good at),…

    I’ve been working on some stuff lately. I wish I had like unlimited bandwidth though because I’m running out of places to play. I have already used up the ‘free homespace’ that my cable company gave me. (shoot, I need to pay that bill.) And i’ve gone digging through to find all my old websites…

    I don’t normally watch television during the day. It’s not because i’m ‘above’ watching daytime television, it’s mostly because it causes more anxiety than I can handle. The commercials that start with, “Are you in debt over your head and feel like your drowning in creditor calls? WE CAN HELP!” Call it denial or avoidance,…

  • thank you! so! much!

    Overwhelming. That’s the word to describe the past weekend. Thank you, each and every single one of you that wished me a happy birthday. Thank you to each of you that gifted me the coolest stuff, wrote nice things and made dorky faces. Thank you to each one of you that sent me something in…

  • it’s a 2 Xanax night.

    I had a hot cup of coffee this morning and I wrote a post that would have made you laugh, cry and beg me for more. Yeah, WordPress ate it. Honeymoon’s Over. I will totally re-write it tomorrow. I will also re-learn the fine art of ‘copy’ the post before I hit publish. But, just…

  • It’s My BIRF-DAY!

    1. Take a picture of something you own that you’re ‘gifting’ me with. (you don’t really have to give it to me, it’s a ‘CYBER’ gift – so go hog wild!) 2. Write 3 words that describe me on paper and take a picture of it. 3. A self portrait of you doing a dorky…

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.
