notes on life 2004

This is old news.  I was in a car wreck and was pretty messed up and it took me a long time to recover and to get to work.  It more or less worked out positively and the last few years, each has been "better" than the last one. It hasn't always been a positive…

Have y'all been watching the news?  That BIG earthquake and tsunami in south Asia?  Oh my god! When I first heard of it yesterday, there were 3000 dead.  Now the figure is 44,000.  That's the population of some Oregon counties.  Gone.  Wow.  It is looking like t...

December 25, 2004 Wow, the year has gone by!   For Christmas Day, all of my large stops were closed- except for Walgreen's Drug Store. They got 100 papers instead of the usual 60. Got there before they opened, and that hot redhead was there again. I met her about a month ago but didn't…

Frankly, I am amazed that so many of my readers commented on the doll in the background of one of the pictures posted in the last entry.  I suppose I saw it too but it was unremarkable and I didn't think of it when I picked that picture to post. The house we are eating…

I've been writing here since 2/4/04. I've written 252 public entries and have 27 private entries. 1932 notes have been left for me. I have left 1475 notes on others' entries.   All of this is so cool. *
