So, went into traffic court today and brought Chicken just for company. One of my favorite things about court is people watching. I run in isolated circles these days and I gotta tell ya, I get tired of little old ladies at the pool. So, three quick highlights here–because what fun is it without highlights?… Read More

Huzzah! We’re going to see the Sacramento Gay Men’s Chorus perform in December–I was so excited when I bought tickets. Leave it to my family to make things weird. “Yay!” I printed out the tickets. “We’re going to the Sacramento Gay Men’s Chorus in December!” “What’s that?” Squish asked suspiciously. Apparently if it’s not soccer,… Read More
