I had a life changing experience on Sunday. I went to a picnic for international UTD students in the middle of a Dallas hurricane. It sounds exciting but all it really means is that I had to put my hand over my potato chips and a brownie flipped off my styrofoam plate and landed upside … Continue reading

Distracted
I haven’t watched TV since Wednesday morning. Guess what? No one has died…yet. I didn’t realize how entertwined television watching had become with some of my daily tasks. Doing dishes necessitates The Office. Heaven forbid I actually enjoy a bath in silence. Good thing there’s Parks and Rec to entertain me. Without television, I have … Continue reading
Dear America: Revisited
You might remember this post here where I ripped America a new one for our obsession with excess at the expense of others. As soon as I hit the post button, I immediately felt like I needed to drive to JC Penney and buy every article of clothing they have there, now that they’ve ditched their elastic … Continue reading
Follow Me or Don’t: Not a post about Twitter
Let’s imagine that I decide that I cannot tolerate Alex sticking his pointy elbow in my eyeball while we share a full size bed. Don’t believe me that it’s true? Here’s a haiku from a very old post to prove it: ABOUT SHARING A FULL SIZE BED North Korea invades Peace treaty not an option Sharp elbow attacks. -Alex It’s no … Continue reading
Hey There, Little Guy
Would you like to see my favorite piece of art? First, here’s the back story: I saw it about a year ago at the Dallas Museum of Art. Unfortunately, as soon as I left the room, I forgot the artist and the name. I scoured the internet for it, but to no avail (mostly because … Continue reading
Tick Attack: Betcha Can’t Eat Just One
If anyone can locate the actual TicTac slogan, feel free to let me know. I couldn’t find it after seconds of searching on wikipedia, so it’s obviously not on the internet. Gracie (my dog) and I had a rough morning on Thursday. My mornings are supposed to be full of waxing on about andragogy and … Continue reading
Repost: Sitting Naked Around a Table
(originally posted November 24, 2010) I’ve been having recurring dreams for the last few weeks. It’s not recurring like falling dreams or being chased by a mobster dream. My recent visions all have the same theme, if you will. Lately, dream Beth has been dropped into a social situation, missing an important part of clothing. Think- meeting the president while not wearing … Continue reading
Jesus>Religion
This is too good not to share. The words are below: What if I told you Jesus came to abolish religion What if I told you voting republican really wasn’t his mission What if I told you republican doesn’t automatically mean Christian And just because you call some people blind Doesn’t automatically give you vision … Continue reading

2011: A Year in Review
Hello friends and family- If you were breathlessly checking your mailbox every day for a Christmas letter from Alex and Beth, you can breathe now. Here it is….in all its glory. Don’t get me wrong. I love sending people mail but I just bought replacement ink for our printer after months of us talking about … Continue reading
Pride Cometh in The Fall
I don’t have alot of embarassing moments-mostly because, in yet another trait I get from my fahter, I’m not usually self-aware enough to be embarassed when I should. For example, I should have been embarassed when I wore a white shirt and khaki pants every day for at least six weeks in middle school, but … Continue reading
