Neighbors?

After recently returning from Papa John’s where I had a lovely chat with Pizza Guy, I came to the realization that I don’t know any of my neighbors. Never talk to them. Never interact. Nothing. May not even recognize them if I saw them out and about. However, I [...]

Way-FM’s Summer Brown Bag Concert Series

Monday marked the return of the WAY-FM Summer Brown Bag Concert series in Franklin, and you’d better believe I was there for it. My co-worker Nita and I took a little extended lunch break, borrowed a blanket from a soccer mom (thanks, Deb), and set out to enjoy (as best we could in the heat) [...]

Sometimes, On My Lunch Break …

Sometimes, on my lunch break, I feel a little lazy and undisciplined. So I drive through Wendy’s to pick up lunch instead of going home to make it myself. And some days, like today, I forget that small really means medium and medium is actually large. And I order a medium Mr. [...]

So, About Tonight …

So tonight, I had every intention of writing an honest, thoughtful (and possibly thought-provoking) post about life and such. Thoughts and ideas have been swirling around in my head all day, and I just couldn’t wait to get to my laptop and get them all out – lay it all out there and clear [...]

Root Beer Redemption

Last night at Movies in the Park, Dirty Dancing edition, I decided to give A&W a chance at redemption. This time, I skipped the horrendous Cool Springs restaurant middle man and went straight to the source … a nice, cold can of A&W root beer straight from the bottler (or is it canner in this [...]

For lunch today, I ate a cheeseburger. And I really don’t feel bad about it.
That’s all. Have a good day.

Free Root Beer Floats from A&W

So yesterday, A&W Restaurants across the U.S. gave away free root beer floats.  Who doesn’t love root beer floats?  Moreover, who doesn’t love free?  Of course I, along with Kim, headed over to the Cool Springs A&W/KFC after my hour long kickboxing class at the Cool Springs YMCA to partake in the FREE ice creamy, [...]

Belmont Boulevard

Belmont Boulevard,
you are not my friend.
Your cracked, concrete sidewalks
are rough
and hard
and cruel.

Ducks in a Row

This one from Kris Carr could apply to anybody:

So often we wait for all our ducks to be in a row, our closets to be neat and tidy, and our endless to-do lists to be checked off before we allow ourselves to have fun. We believe that only after we get all our “stuff” done [...]

On Divorce

From my most recent interview, I found this statement from Sylvia (opera singer, cancer survivor) really interesting, especially considering that about half of all marriages end in divorce. Maybe it will give people one more reason to stop and think before deciding to end their marriages:
I remember hearing Lance Armstrong give an interview to [...]
