http://ourlifeincostarica.blogspot.com/2014/08/the-birthday-girl-is-at-it-again.html
Our Business - What We Do. Saturday, August 9, 2014. THE BIRTHDAY GIRL IS AT IT AGAIN. Remember the Birthday Bash for Stef we had last year? It got bigger this year! With all that has gone on this year with health issues, we really didn't get involved with too many events. In fact, we cancelled our annual St Patrick's Day Party this year because Stef was just not feeling up to it, and I felt about the same. On August 9, 2014. When we got there at about 6 PM, this is what it looked like. After the meals w...

What Happened to the Subtitles? Figuring it out in Costa Rica. Sarcasm and boxed wine help. Some. Step Away from the Keyboard. Commercials. Yeah, that shit's not so funny now. Anyway, still here. Just disgusted with the world and its cyber-reflection. I'll have something for you soon. Words Fail Me: Legend of Zorro. Sometimes a single word in one one language can represent multiple words in another. For example, can mean. 1) to wait for. 4) to look forward to. Way to mess me up, Spanish. And all is right...

What Happened to the Subtitles? Figuring it out in Costa Rica. Sarcasm and boxed wine help. Some. A Married Couple Walks into a Bar . Wah wah what the ? When your marriage comprises two languages and two cultures, communication is challenging at best. At worst, it's a drunken conversation with Charlie Brown's teacher over a bad Skype connection. Every dual-language couple we know has fallen into using only one language or the other because of this. Humor is the hardest thing in another language. Well...

When the esposo was merely a pre-esposo and we were courting a través la distancia. Bumbling about in a long-distance relationship), the misunderstandings due to culture and language happened even more often than they do now, and it usually took us longer to realize it.

What Happened to the Subtitles? Figuring it out in Costa Rica. Sarcasm and boxed wine help. Some. Escape From Bitch Mountain. I actually forgot the password to this blog. So it's been two years. That has more to do with my surrender to Facebook than with me quitting my job, cashing in my meager contribution toward the retirement I would have enjoyed at age 87 or so, moving to Central America with my dog and nine suitcases, and marrying a Costa Rican socialist. In Seattle, people literally call in sick on...

Tuesday, September 21, 2010. What do you do with a 3 year old pickle? Somebody found the extra frosting! Throw it a birthday party! Pretty much, yeah, I am.

Dogs Poop in Alignment with Earth’s Magnetic Field. March 27, 2014 at 11:00 am. By Chad Upton Editor. In case you don’t know, the Earth is basically one giant magnet. That’s why a compass always points to magnetic North. This is extremely useful for navigation and other location based activities. Apparently, dogs also find it useful for pooping. Much attention to the plot or azimuth. Dogs do this — that’s still a mystery, and it’ll probably take more than two years to figure that out. As for humans, ther...
