Yesterday, I suited up in matching sky blue rain paints and raincoat to walk Isis. It was blustery and raining, you see. You’da thought she’d never been outside the house before, she was so enchanted by all that she saw (and smelled, no doubt). I don’t think she walked beside me for two steps theContinue reading “Guilt ridden”

Cue violins
It’s the one week a year when we need air conditioning. At least my office has it… The temperature hit 94 degrees just before 1 p.m. today, tying the all-time record. The record was set originally on Aug. 9, 1960, and matched on Aug. 8, 1978. Today’s temperature blew past the previous record for JulyContinue reading “Cue violins”
Now that’s a Sunday
Rob trotted off this morning to be a fight coordinator on a friend’s movie, so I watched Fight Girls on TiVo, then rolled over on the couch Andy Capp-style and napped til 2 p.m. when Rob called to ask me to come visit him on set. What? And interrupt my busy schedule? Poor Isis sleptContinue reading “Now that’s a Sunday”
Welcome, Summer
Here’s what Al Roker had to say about it, “Wet weather in the Pacific Northwest.” That’s what he always says.

It’s mid-June! I shouldn’t have to have the heat on in my house!

Living is easy
It’s cold and dreary out, but it feels like summertime to me, because I’m working from home and drinking a cool glass of Newman’s Own Limeade. I had a coupon. Aaahh.
Behavior problem
Isis had a sort of attitudinal day. I blame the rainy weather, because she didn’t get outside very much to play. And even though we were home, Rob and I didn’t pay too much attention to her. ‘Course that doesn’t justify her standing at my feet and barking at me. There was no good reasonContinue reading “Behavior problem”
Can’t believe they didn’t close government offices
Newspapers warn outdoor workers to drink lots of fortified beverages like Gatorade. “Eighty degrees is a temperature range we’re not accustomed to. We don’t live in Palm Springs or in California. If you’re always in that heat, your body is acclimated to the environment. … In the Pacific Northwest, your body’s going to be stressed.”Continue reading “Can’t believe they didn’t close government offices”
Goal setting
I have to post at least twice a day in order to hit 1,000 posts by my 5th Bloggiversary. Guess I better get back to taking pictures of my dog obsessively if I’m going to have a shot. I could hit post now, and then finish my train of thought in a new post, butContinue reading “Goal setting”
