Slipping Reality: February 2009
http://slippingreality.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Everyone's already got one, you see? Wednesday, February 18, 2009. This morning, I took my 12 year old cat Zeke to the vet. Unfortunately, Zeke did not come home with me. He's been in gradual decline since Thanksgiving, which accelerated over the past two weeks. Xrays this morning showed he had cancer through most of his major organs with nothing we could do. The vet kindly talked me through the euthanasia procedure and I was present when it was done. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Stinkbumps the Wonder Boy.

Slipping Reality: June 2009
http://slippingreality.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Everyone's already got one, you see? Wednesday, June 24, 2009. Joke from a Four Year Old and Phonics Lesson. It's Pizza, who? That was a funny joke! Earlier this week, Christopher and I were discussing letter sounds. He asked me what I started with (what letter my name begins with, in his parlance). I told him, "My name starts with the letter 'B'.". He looked puzzled. "But 'Mommy' has a ' mmmmmm. Mommy has an ' mmmm. Sound, but my name is Becca.". You start with the 'butt' sound.".

Slipping Reality: July 2009
http://slippingreality.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Everyone's already got one, you see? Wednesday, July 29, 2009. I was pondering this last night, and was spurred to post after reading Suze's blog this morning. I need a bit of advice- both on how I should perceive reality and what actions I should take. Possibly. Allow me to 'splain:. Here's where the help comes in:. 1) Do I gush too much about his seeming talent for music, or is this normal for 4 1/2? 3) At what point do I consider lessons? I never had music lessons, so I don't know how early is too ear...

Slipping Reality: September 2008
http://slippingreality.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Everyone's already got one, you see? Friday, September 05, 2008. I go for months without saying a word, and then the conventions get me all riled up. Here's the latest. Remember that weird yellow dress with the winged collar that Cindy McCain wore on Tuesday night? Well, her entire outfit cost her over $300,000. I am supposed to believe that her husband understands the impact on the economy when she's out there wearing almost 300 grand in jewelry? I think Strangeite is right about Htrae. It certainly doe...

Slipping Reality: No Time to Exchange Them
http://slippingreality.blogspot.com/2010/03/no-time-to-exchange-them.html
Everyone's already got one, you see? Wednesday, March 24, 2010. No Time to Exchange Them. Didn't get the promotion, but I did get the lateral position. In hindsight, I'm very happy about this. More time to learn a few finer details and practice leadership before I'm responsible for it. I'm applying things to my job now that I didn't realize I had learned over the past four years of the previous world. It's challenging but fun and I'm happy with it. Still banning HFCS (did you see the study released today.

Slipping Reality: March 2008

Everyone's already got one, you see? Thursday, March 27, 2008. DISCLAIMER: I am not a programmer. I work with Java folks, and I don't pretend to be as smart as them. This struck me as a funny idea and I poked through the Java help forums for beginner stuff. If it isn't structurally sound, I'm not surprised. And yeah, pretend I did the indents, cuz I did, but stupid Blogger won't show them. Public static void main(String [] args {. Case 1: System.out.println("house"); break;. Saturday, March 22, 2008.

Slipping Reality: November 2008

Everyone's already got one, you see? Wednesday, November 19, 2008. Learning More About Thankfulness. Shortly after arriving home from work last night, I went to my bedroom to change my clothes before cooking dinner. Christopher was perched on the bed watching TV. Since Halloween, he assumes that whenever I'm changing my clothes, I'm putting on a costume. Mommy, what are you going to be for Halloween? Oh, sweetie, Halloween is over this year.". OK Mommy, what are you going to be tankful for this year?

Slipping Reality: April 2008
http://slippingreality.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
Everyone's already got one, you see? Friday, April 18, 2008. Sometimes I Wish I Were Charlene*. Catching up on TV from the DVR list tonight, I'm watching last night's Colbert Report. Incidentally, this is one of CJ's favorite shows. He loves the eagle, and gets very excited whenever we watch "Bear Pore". Oh, John. I'm so sad things didn't work out this year. I would have voted for you, if you hadn't dropped out five days before our primary. A cyber cookie to whomever gets the reference. Recent launch int...
