Joy of joys, Joy is back from her vacation and once again manning (womaning?) the reception desk at work. She has a wonderful sense of humor and I love talking to her. She also likes my sense of humor — or at least that’s what she says when she isn’t rolling her eyes.
Today I came [...]

One of OC’s band compadres, an oboist, played for us in church today. His wife attended the service with him, and of course I invited her to sit with me (since OC and RY were with the rest of the musical ensemble). I didn’t want her to feel awkward or unwelcome. As we approached my [...]

I am sure it hit the national news since Obama is on the island, but, in case you hadn’t heard, Oahu just enjoyed it’s own personal power black out. Some parts of the island (including our part) were approximately 19 hours without power. Now that the power is up, I have much to do — [...]

Christmas was quiet and peaceful in our home. OC and I each spent the whole day kicked back and casual. He watched sports on TV, I read and played video games.
We had a simple Christmas meal for just the two of us. I roasted a chicken, made mashed potatoes, gravy, stuffing, and steamed asparagus. We [...]

I am going to tell you a secret. Something you never would have guessed in a million years — I know this will shock you — but I can be just a bit of a tease. Every so often – not more than one or two, or maybe ten times per week day — I have to do something to [...]

That is a lava formation OC is striding across — though looks are deceiving, it is not at all a smooth surface and he was picking his way. This particular bit of lava is jutting up at the edge of the sea [...]

He walked into the bedroom and stretched out on the bed.
Surprised, she looked at the clock. It was early — maybe not for you and I, but it was most certainly early for him — only 10:00 p.m. “Hon,” she said. “Are you going to sleep?”
“Not yet,” he answered. “I’m just going to rest here [...]

Well, it’s like this …. the studs holding the tires on my car weren’t stripped. Apparently the real studs were inside these little metal jackets. The jackets were spinning, but the studs and bolts underneath were just fine.
Okay, I offically feel stupid, but as I pointed out to the tow truck driver who came to [...]

Tonight I was in a downtown parkinglot with a bunch of stripped studs. In fact, they were on my car. Unfortunately there was nothing sexy about them.
Today my car got four new tires. We took it in to Lex Brody’s Queen Street Shop. We were really pleased with the price they quoted us and the [...]
