A Barrel of Nelsons

Okay, I haven’t really been inspired lately, I’ve got half-posts in my head, but not real posts, so I thought I’d give you all an update. And by all I mean the 3 of you that might look here every week or so.
What I’m Driving
So after the smash, crash, and it’s-a-total-here’s-some-cash deal with the un-named [...]

I’ve got nothing much to say.
They called this morning and my car is totaled. Everybody says, it’s great that I wasn’t hurt and then proceed to lecture me on what I was doing wrong. As if I’m not hard enough on myself already. As if I don’t know what kind of tragedy this is, and [...]

I have a wicked bruise just above the elbow on the inside of my right arm. It hurts. I believe everyone was saying it looks like it’s from hitting the steering wheel.
I want my car to get fixed, but the tow truck guy was not optimistic. In fact he was down right pessimistic. (Forgive me [...]

Hi Internet-
I’m not at work like I’m supposed to be right now. Don’t worry. I didn’t get fired. In fact they approved the motion to add five hours a week to my schedule.
No… I’m not at work because maybe an hour and a half ago, I was heading to the gas station on the end [...]

I can barely sit still I’m so fidgety. But I thought I would do a quick run down of how things are shaping up. Hopefully by this weekend I’ll have enough of a handle on myself to write a REAL entry.

Because we’re oh so into the celebration we’re making beef stew.
Ok, ok, I’ll cut some of the snark…
We ended up at the local Farmer’s Market this morning. This is the first week for [...]

Federal Tax Returns showed up in our bank account last Friday. So, of course, we spent them. Ok, not all of them, we aren’t that dumb, but we did get ourselves two nice treats.
One is a digital SLR that I’ve been planning to buy with my tax return since before I filled out the paperwork. [...]

This is one of four posts that I started to write, but two of the others usurp other peoples posts in a way maybe and I don’t want to do that. And the third is kind of a re-statement of something I wrote on forums and isn’t fully formed yet. So yeah… here goes this [...]

So as I mentioned way at the end of this post, we recently test drove a Honda Element. Well actually we test drove a 2007 Honda CRV and a 2006 Honda Element at our local Honda dealer. I going to give you a quick (or not so quick) review of both.
But first, I have a slightly shameful [...]
