Adding to my previous post about San Diego, another intriguing thing about the city is it’s proximity to Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico. I’ve enjoyed Mexico in the past, having spent time in Puerto Vallarta and Mexico City. I hear tons of people walk across the border daily and I may join them. It would be…

I’m thinking of visiting San Diego in February. The things I’ve heard about the city throughout my life, like the Mediterranean climate they enjoy, the burritos, the beautiful baseball stadium and the world-class zoo, have built San Diego up to epic proportions in my mind. Will the reality match my dreams and visions? Does reality…

I went grocery shopping today. It’s not even the tasty treats that tempt me in a big supermarket, but the ingredients I could use in my cooking. How insufferable does that sound? I’m being serious, though! I find joy in planning and cooking a meal, but I am not wealthy and these things that tempt…

I did laundry today and now I have every sock that I own in front of me. It’s a weird feeling, “owning socks.” Why don’t we let the socks be free? To be fair, socks are the most elusive of all the garments. We all lose that random sock and it happens all the time.…

I feel stuck. I whine and moan about the price of things, like breakfast sandwiches, but I don’t intend on not buying breakfast sandwiches. I get bent over but I do not change my ways.

What do the elves of the North Pole do when Santa leaves to deliver the presents? I imagine it being similar to a pro sports team after their season ends. Some elves may go under the knife, some go party in Cancun or Ibiza, and some go put their feet up and chill on the…

I love to sneeze. The best is when three or four or five (or more!) sneezes get lined up in a row. You don’t know when they’ll start or when they’ll end. It’s nice to have something taken out of your hands like that. One can’t binge sneeze or develop a sneeze addiction, although I’m…

For lunch today, I bought five Buffalo chicken fingers (with a cup of blue cheese) from a supermarket. You are supposed to heat the chicken fingers up in a microwave but I ate them cold in my car in the parking lot while listening to Rich Eisen talk about the Miami Dolphins on the radio.…

There are worse ways to spend an evening than talking on the phone with a friend for two hours. I consider myself a private person who can get by without much human interaction. In fact, too much human interaction makes me run for the hills. And then there are long, winding conversations filled with laughter…
