Who came up with the idea of licensing things? I am sure it could only happen in a capitalist climate. A way to keep track of someone or something and generate income doing so. I am writing about licenses because the mean, racist old lady at the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles sent me homeContinue reading “Licenses”

Even Ripley Won’t Believe This!
We are still in the stages of unpacking and I get to the box with my important papers in it. I was needing my birth certificate to present so I can get an Ohio driver’s license. For the very first time in my life (it only took 67 years) I actually read my certificate. MyContinue reading “Even Ripley Won’t Believe This!”
Fog
I forgot how much I missed it . So many years have passed since I remember foggy days and nights, but when I woke up this morning, I could not see across the street to my neighbors’ houses. Of course in England we had the proverbial “thick as pea soup” fog that severely limited carContinue reading “Fog”
Groundhogs
I just found out we have at least one big groundhog that has evidently found a nest of sorts under the wooden shed in our backyard which was placed directly on soil and not gravel by some idiots. I have named this huge rodent Gregory and he seems to think nothing of walking around ourContinue reading “Groundhogs”
Big Boy Pants
This expression alludes to being prepared and doing your best in any pursuit. When you wear your big boy pants you better be ready to bring it. I think no matter who you are, man or woman, you should be prepared to wear your big boy pants. Dominate your lifespace. Bring your best to theContinue reading “Big Boy Pants”
What Rocks Your World?
And I am not talking the short term heat-of-the-moment flush of sexual excitement. No, what I speak of is your motivation. For living. For life itself. What gets you up in the morning with a smile of anticipation and eagerness to start another day? We only have an average of 77 years and four monthsContinue reading “What Rocks Your World?”
Be on the Alert
Why? Why do you want to live life continually “on the alert” for things which may or may not, happen? Go gives a flying shit anyway (as if shit could fly)? I am drawing the line on alerts. I just got an alert from my bank telling me “you have no alerts at this time.”Continue reading “Be on the Alert”
Waiting in Line
Who likes waiting in line? I don’t know why, but I always feel like I lose time waiting in line that I will never get back. Unless you are waiting in line to get into a Guns ‘n Roses concert with Sebastian Bach and Skid Row opening up for them. Then you are guaranteed thatContinue reading “Waiting in Line”
Somebody Please Explain it to Me
Why is it? We are still in the unpacking stage and will be for some time, but I open up two boxes that I specifically took the time and effort to write on in BIG letters: TRASH—KAREN DO NOT PACK!!! Please note that there were three exclamation points written in bold on both boxes (onContinue reading “Somebody Please Explain it to Me”
NIMBY
Here we go again. The global spotlight shines brightly once again on the United States as we stumble all over ourselves and try to find a solution to our growing population. It is not the normal 6% population increase of which I speak. We get there just by waking up in the morning. No, itContinue reading “NIMBY”
