melz world: March 2011
http://melz-world.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Bringing the funk, and putting some stank on it. Wednesday, March 30, 2011. In consideration of coupons. So, there has been some consternation in the coupon community (yes, there is such a thing as a "coupon community" - if it works for Trekkies it can work for us! About Kroger's recent policy change regarding stacking electronic coupons with those printed on paper. No harm, no foul. Hard as it may be to believe, I don't have a problem with this policy change. It's Kroger's business how they run thei...

melz world: April 2011
http://melz-world.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Bringing the funk, and putting some stank on it. Wednesday, April 27, 2011. Rain, rain, go away. The view out my office window for the past several days. If I had a dime for everytime the word "Ark" or "Noah" appeared in my Facebook news feed, well, I'd be sitting on a beach in Tahiti right now instead of wishing the rain away. I am pretty sure the ground must be super saturated right now. I know my tolerance for thunderstorms and tornado warnings is! The weather folks tell us that this will move out thi...

http://melz-world.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Bringing the funk, and putting some stank on it. Saturday, September 04, 2010. I may as well blog. Y'all, if I had known how much cleaning was going to be involved with the aftermath of a handful of rodents, I probably would have just left everything and moved. Yeah, there's a difference. Sure, I like my home to be clean. Who doesn't? I'm just being real, y'all. So, back to my current situation. Jason has spent the last few days taking everything out of the cabinets, inspecting for evidence of mice, and ...

melz world: October 2010
http://melz-world.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Bringing the funk, and putting some stank on it. Wednesday, October 13, 2010. It seems my writer's block can only be broken by some sort of crisis. Although, once we got the mice gone, I then had to deal with (all by myself, because Jason was out of town and unreachable) an infestation of ants. IN MY ROOM. What the heck? Contrary to popular myth, this fat kid does NOT hide Twinkies and Ho Ho's in her nightstand, so I don't know what they were after. Do you believe in the hereafter? And pick up (THWACK!

melz world: June 2010
http://melz-world.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Bringing the funk, and putting some stank on it. Monday, June 21, 2010. We all had a lovely time, thank you. A very lovely time indeed. Guess who finally got a BIG trophy at the Five Star Races? She won first place in her age group, and she couldn't be happier. Well, I suppose she could,. If she'd won the quarter-mile overall. But, whatever. Saturday was very, very. Relaxing, since a miracle happened and the cleaning we did last weekend was kept up on a daily basis! One, called a Frankly Scarlett. Each l...

melz world: Kroger Shakedown! (And other things...)
http://melz-world.blogspot.com/2011/05/kroger-shakedown-and-other-things.html
Bringing the funk, and putting some stank on it. Tuesday, May 10, 2011. And other things.). Well, Gentle Reader, let me just say that it's good to be back in the land of the blogging. But this week, I hit it HARD, and my normal $30-$40 range went all the way up slightly past $50 in response. I also went to Kroger twice, because after my original trip on Sunday we stopped by two stores to find Anna Marie a replacement nunchuck for her Wii and I couldn't get any refrigerated stuff. WHO PAYS THAT FOR COFFEE?

melz world: August 2010
http://melz-world.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Bringing the funk, and putting some stank on it. Monday, August 30, 2010. Sorry for the lack of a picture, folks. It goes against everything in my newspaper page designing background not to have one, but seriously - I'm pretty sure we don't need to see some deceased rodents up in here.). When last we met, Jason was trying to figure out a way to out-fox a wily mouse. Turns out, he was trying to out-fox wily mice. PLURAL. As in, there has been more than one varmint roaming around my kitchen. So tonight, we...

Bringing the funk, and putting some stank on it. Friday, June 10, 2011. Well, howdy-do.

A couple of months ago, I was asked to review the book First Time Dad. By John Fuller. What, you say? You’re not a dad, and your kid is almost a decade old? Fuller is a father of six (!

melz world: May 2011
http://melz-world.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Bringing the funk, and putting some stank on it. Thursday, May 19, 2011. Yeah, you read that right. Not tales. As in, one of my dogs, right now, is carting around the back shell and tail of an armadillo in his mouth,. And it's creeping me OUT. It all started Tuesday, when I posted to Facebook that "any day without a dead possum in the yard is a good day." Because, yes, we've had a spate of those. Thanks in part to our wonderful canine companions. Once again, we tried to dispose of it. But that's another ...
