That's all folks. Day 30. The last day of National Blog Writing Month, otherwise known as NaBloWriMo, or NanoPoblano if you are part of the coolest (hottest?) blogger group around, or as I like to call it - Blog Everyday No Matter What Month. It's been fun, though I am a little disappointed I didn't…

a political rant
Who gets to decide how much you get paid to do the job you do? Generally speaking, your boss, or their boss, or the board of directors and CEO of the company you work for. In other words, the people you work for decide how much they are going to pay you. Sure, you can…
beauty never dies
Flowers die Paintings fade Sculptures crumble Youth ages Vistas get paved over Beauty is fleeting It's a good thing I'm ugly. ~ That isn't want I wanted to write. The idea in my head was about beauty being temporary, no matter where you find it. So why try? Why not just revel in the ugliness…

And you think chicken pot pie is an acceptable substitute for turkey? Sure. Why not? Sigh. Do we at least have pie?…
