These sorts of incidents make it difficult to for me to fly. Landings like these are an incredible relief. I hope all my future pilots have the same type of skillz!

a belated birthday . . .
Sunday, November 16th, 2008I actually did celebrate my birthday, I just forgot to blog about it. I spent it in Austin with friends, it was very laid back and relaxing, and yet stimulating at the same time . . . with the inevitable talk of politics since my birthday fell just a couple weeks before the presidential [...]
okay, the scoop . . .
Friday, July 18th, 2008WARNING: Mega long post to follow!
Mona already left for Arkansas, so she’s missing out on this phenomenal mega post! She’ll be pleasantly surprised when she returns though. I hope so anyway.
So, what’s been going on? A lot . . . mostly I’ve been busy getting ready for Texas Scrapfest. I’m [...]
when you think “imbecile” . . .
Tuesday, June 24th, 2008do ya think of Greyhound? I do now.
The kids and I took the bus to Dallas last Thursday. The actual bus ride was okay, but dealing with the ticketing agents is ludicrous. They must hire only the terminally stoopid. I swear.

the worse part about traveling . . .
Thursday, April 24th, 2008for me anyway, is the packing. Yeah, I’m not like freaking Lori, who packed about 30 minutes after her ticket to Sacramento was purchased. I’m leaving in just under 24 hours and so far . . . I’ve done nothing. Which tends to happen when I have one of those “What the [...]

Wednesday, March 19th, 2008Here’s the deal.
Every time I visit some place, I want to move there. It’s weird. Maybe I just crave a variety in my life that I’m not used to getting. It’s a cool notion to daydream about, but my reality is I’m covered by a wave of comfort whenever I return home.
I get giddy when [...]

The first time I ever flew in my life, I was about 20 years old. Eons ago it seems. I remember it well. I remember being terrified. I was planning to fly to Dallas to visit [...]
so i got on a plane . . .
Tuesday, September 4th, 2007Really! I know it is hard to believe, but it’s true. I’ve got the pictures to prove it.
What impresses me most about this first picture is the fact that the plane is actually smaller than the bus I ride to work. I’m not use to this at all, it kinda freaked me [...]
