I Am Not a Jedi

For those following my blog, the two missing in the Delaware River were recovered, though not alive. Although I wish they could have met a kinder fate, I hope that their families can find some peace by having their bodies returned to them.

The restlessness I was feeling about this incident has subsided since the two were found. It was not the most ideal end to this tragedy, but I am glad that the families and friends can grieve with a sense of closure. And, to be self-centered, I am thankful that I won’t have to pass by the water and feel the unresolved sadness I felt the days before the two were found. Life is now allowed to go on, although it will not be that easy for some… (more…)

Well,  after being MIA for the past few weeks, I’m hoping life will allow me to enjoy a little down time and normalcy. At least for a week. (more…)

OK,  so this is a bit of a cop out, but until I have the time/energy to post anything proper about our trip, my tweets about it will have to do. There’s not a lot once we left San Antone/Austin, but at least it’s something. I am so run down and exhausted after this week, I don’t even know what to do with myself. And of course the first time I actually am the one wanting to turn on the TV and watch something, the damn thing breaks (or at least doesn’t work for me…) Maybe we’ll be getting an upgrade on the boob tube after all…

Keep in mind that in order to read these in order, you have to start at the bottom and work your way up. Don’t blame me; blame Twitter. (more…)

Well, Jon Stewart is already crossed off the list, but that was just the beginning of the excitement to come. It feels like now that spring is  springing, our social calendar is budding too. Here are the events currently on our calendar I can’t wait for: (more…)

OK, so it’s Thursday and in fact, we’re closer to the next weekend than we are to what’s passed, but I have like, 6 blogs that are half started that I’m determined to actually finish… (although at this point, I might just make my “snowpocalypse” blog a private one because frankly, it’s pathetically outdated…

Anyway–last weekend was pretty good, though fairly lowkey.

After what’s felt like MONTHS being cooped up, we took advantage of the fact that the sun is out and no precipitation is falling in the southern NJ area (granted, it’s still FREEZING, but as this point that is something worth overlooking…).

So, here’s the breakdown of the weekend:

Today was a good day–nothing too crazy to write home about, but I figure I should write all the same…

In an unprecedented move, I am going to simply focus on the good things that happened today… (I’ll save the bitching for another time). (more…)
