Queen of Rambles

I got a call from my mom tonight, and Mike insists that I must share the craziness with you all. He thinks you appreciate stories of dysfunction. Or maybe he just likes making fun of my family. I would make fun of his right back at him, but they never call or […]

Mosaic Minds is undergoing some serious restructuring right now, and we are looking to add new staff members! All these positions are unpaid (no one on the staff gets any money, we do this because we love writing and want to get our names out there) but all staff members get a bio page […]

I skipped work today specifically so I could work on MM stuff. I woke up, looked at the clock and it was DEAD. I had no power until 12:30 pm. I was right in the middle of doing stuff and BAM!!! Power goes out again for an hour. At this […]

On day in college I decided that I was tired of being stressed out. I was tired of waiting until the last possible moment (ok, so maybe not VERY LAST possible moment. I never had to stay up past 1 am) to finish a paper. I thought I’d be responsible and do my […]

This one is just for Julie. I suppose I could just e-mail it to her, but what would be the fun in that? Instead, if you want to see four quilt blocks put together you can click below the cut. If you don’t, then don’t click. This will probably be the last time […]

Mike has finally had to take matters into his own hands and call my mother to tell her to stop calling here with utterly ridiculous baby names. I’d like to tell you the story of how he put his foot down and triumphed over the insane woman. Instead, I have to tell you […]

Mike and I are on a quest. It is a quest that will take us into realms unknown. It is a quest that will require all our strength and stamina. A quest that will require us to use all our powers of observation and deduction.
We started apartment hunting today.
This is not going […]

You’d all be so proud of me. I handled my day with aplomb and grace despite the intense desire to run away and hide under a rock somewhere.
I was once again teaching sex ed, and once again the students had questions. This time they had much more hard core questions than yesterday. […]
