Everyone in the Southeast had a snow day today. Everyone but a large portion of the city of Charleston. Despite the fact that my stairs were coated with sleet, all of the bridges were closed by 10 am, and ice was heavy on the trees outside my office window, I did not get a snow [...]

Windchills and Regrets
Posted in Briscoe, Charleston, Weather on December 13, 2010 | 1 Comment »
It is cold here in Charleston, South Carolina. Not that it really mattered to me today because I was inside the whole day, but it sure looked cold out of my window. As I was getting onto the interstate on my way home from work today, I saw blue flashing lights ahead and realized two [...]
The Love of October
Posted in Augusta, Briscoe, Charleston on October 21, 2010 | 1 Comment »
I love October. As a classic Libra, October is my month. The stars tend to line up for me in October. Not in any concrete, observeable way, but more in an inter-balance sort of way. Briscoe and I are adjusting to our new city. Kate and Trav came to visit last weekend, and Kate and [...]
Fountains and Fairytales

Briscoe and I decided to go on an exploratory run of our new neighborhood today. The best thing about wandering around downtown Charleston in the afternoon is that you can look at the direction the sun is setting and then see where the closest body of water is, and you can’t get entirely lost! It [...]
Drop off a Bear, pick up a Lamb

Briscoe is at the salon today, getting her hair did. Her hair was getting so long I was starting to feel neglectful. I can’t wait to pick her up so Bobby can have a little lamb, little lamb, little lamb. I’ve been getting some awesome blog love from Betsy and Molly, my sweet Atlanta friends [...]
Things are not always as they seem

Yesterday, I noticed tha Briscoe’s eye lashes were matted. But her eye didn’t look red, and it didn’t seem to be bothering her, so I decided it was probably just dust or allergies. This morning her eye was much more matted, and upon closer inspection, swollen. So I called the vet to make sure they [...]
Indian Summer, Pumpkins and Harvest Moons
Posted in Briscoe, Thoughts, Weather on November 2, 2009 | 2 Comments »
It was sunny and warm here all of last week, which always make for an interesting Halloween. I remember as a child either sweating to death in whatever huge costume I’d been damned and determined to wear, or freezing to death in whatever thin material had seemed absolutely necessary. Last Thursday night Kate and I made pumpkin [...]
The road to hell
Posted in Augusta, Briscoe, Current Affairs, dogs on September 14, 2009 | 1 Comment »
I had great intentions of having lots of interesting and funny things to say tonight, but then I got really distracted by this blog – Strange Maps. I love maps. That, coupled with the fact that my laptop is on his last leg and the keyboard only works when tilted a little forward, has sort [...]
Cool July Nights

This has been a very interesting week. In some ways, I have finally been able to settle back down into a schedule and get my life together. There is still a lot of stuff that needs to be done at my house, but my second roommate Erin is moving in this weekend, and this is [...]
The Swiftness of Life

How is it already Thursday? I literally can’t imagine where this week has gone. Actually, when it comes down to it, I don’t know where this entire year has gotten off to. It’s the middle of APRIL! The masters was tons of fun, I need to take a picture of my chalkboard fridge so you [...]
