Sometimes you have to take the leap and build your wings on the way down. In the new forty that is what I am doing – building my wings.

The power of music…

October 31, 2009 Ms. C3 Comments

They have a commercial out now where an eclectic group of folks are singing Rick James' song, Super Freak, and as a consequence of that commercial that song is now running through my mind in a repetitive loop. The song is stuck in my brain and rattling around in my head and clearly doesn’t recognize [...]

Dateless in West Fargo…

October 30, 2009 Ms. C3 Comments

I have sinned and repented; as such, I will not be dressing up this year for Halloween. I am acutely aware from past transgressions that I have done enough in this arena. Too many photos of me in old costumes lying around to remind me of the reality of what seems like a good idea [...]

Don’t be this guy…

October 28, 2009 Ms. C4 Comments

With Halloween landing on a Saturday this year I think it is particularly valuable to emphasize how important it is to make smart choices and to keep yourself and others safe.  If you are going to drink, don't drive and don't be this guy...know your limits. This concludes this Halloween safety message. Day one hundred [...]

Arts and Crafts for Dummies…

October 25, 2009 Ms. C3 Comments

Some folks are gifted with the ability to create miraculous things out of snippets of felt, a few skeins of yarn, or patches of old fabric. I am not amongst those folks. If some level of craftiness is required from me then you better bring along the Arts and Crafts for Dummies book. Not that [...]

The trouble with kabuki brushes…

October 23, 2009 Ms. C4 Comments

Let me say that not all kabuki brushes are created equal. My kabuki brush is clearly inferior and my mission today is to go forth into the world and find a higher quality kabuki brush. For those of you unfamiliar with the kabuki brush it is a short, fat, stubby brush that you use to [...]

OMG – I have OMS!

October 22, 2009 Ms. C8 Comments

My waking mind has no pause or off switch. It bounces from item to item like the ball in a pinball machine – seemingly erratic and unpredictable but likely quite measurable and predictable by a team of scientists (as one or two scientists would clearly not be enough).
