Fat Conversation
Kevin, Jake, and I met for lunch today at one of our favorite local dives. We were happily eating when a woman got up from her table to walk to the restroom, and Jake says in a loud, clear voice,... - read more

Lessons to be Learned from the Playground
“She’s not my friend anymore. She’s mean!” my daughter exclaimed as she got into the car. She threw her backpack in the seat next to her, buckled up and took a deep breath. “Don’t cha... - read moreannieinkansas on Nov 20 2008 - 06:30:00 AM - 131 views
When life gives you stuffing, make turkey!
Like lots of kids, I didn't care for my parents all that much. It's a long story that was told over and over again to anyone who would listen during the college years. And then I put the story in a box, put the... - read more

We got four free tickets to the Chief's game last Sunday against the Saints. Everyone I know either had plans or hates football, not to mention the KC Chiefs suck this year... (can I say that?) We finally did find some takers for the other two tickets, Luke's cousin and his wife. They were supposed to meet us in the parking lot ... however, they called us 20 minutes before game time to let us know that... - read more

It's a boy! - 307 views
I took the new kitten to the veterinarian for her second set of shots. “And I need to schedule her spay,” I said, cuddling the little sweetie under my chin. She purred contentedly. The vet tech took her from me and went to find a scale to make sure the kitty weighed enough for surgery. She came back in looking a little sheepish. “Big news!”... - read more

Searching Locally for Holiday Gifts - 319 views
Blame it on that wild, bright roaring dinosaur in Target, but it made me think that I was done, finished, kaput with all these fancy toys and flashing gizmos that are part of holiday shopping and an endless parade of things to buy! now! to celebrate! the season! I got shopper overload when aisle after aisle was yet another bunch of glitz packaged to bring instant holiday cheer to my family and... - read more

So I guess I can stop my worrying. I’m sure all the people who know me well are applauding right now. About damn time, they’re saying. For a few months now our house has been a little tense, just waiting for the youngest to say something. Anything. Instead of the 100 or so words books say he was supposed to be uttering at age two, he had about six. And for the most part, he just seemed like he... - read more

What?! It Gets Cold in Kansas City?! - 289 views
I'm not sure how it's even possible that someone who's lived in Kansas City her whole life is caught totally by surprise by the first cold snap of the year, but it is. I mean, you grow up in a place like KC, you'd think it might sink in that, yeah, seeing your breath in November is hardly cause to get Josh Gates on the phone. You can remember sleet and even snow in Octobers past. Heck, you can... - read more

Why are guys afraid of Twilight? - 263 views
I have talked to so many men and teenage boys (my Edward-aged son included) who absolutely refuse to read anything written by Stephenie Meyer, and no way will they see the movie. What is their problem?? I hate how certain things get labeled as chick-lit or chick flicks, and immediately the guys run away. I know the movie studio is trying to lure guys to the theater by playing up the violence in the... - read more
