  • Typhoid, Mary

    Back from the doc. Ron has had a raging case of something in the past few days running fevers of 100 to 103 degrees (Fahrenheit, y’all). He rarely gets ill (I think it is from building up resistance to bugs as a flight attendant, my parents were the same way as elementary school teachers). But […]

  • Veggie Out

    Ron: I’m not going to go to the gym today. I’m just going to veggie out.

  • Pie Patrol

    A couple days ago Ron had come in for a post-lunch nap while I worked. I started cleaning up this hellhole and throwing stuff away, including a blueberry pie we’d bought at Jewel six days ago. Ron wakes up: Ron: (yawn, groan, stretch, yawn) Oh… now I just want a piece of that pie. (pause) […]

  • Ron's Laptop Was Stolen After All

    And it is Monday. Kitty here on the bed sleeping already – he is worn out from a night of sleeping. Ron isn’t crazy. He ran into a neighbor who said his laptop had been stolen out of his locked apartment. So Ron did have his laptop with him on his flight home and did […]

  • Little Orphan Shirley

    (Home. Shirliey Bassey’s rendition of ‘As Long as He Needs Me’ plays on iTunes. Andy sings along) Ron: You know that song? Andy: Yeah. It is from Oliver! Ron: No it is not. Andy: Yes honey. Ron: Shirley sang this song first. Andy: No she didn’t. Oliver! is about an orphan named Oliver. I know. […]

  • Brandon Lee, Aaliyah and Brandy

    (we’re watching the beginning of The Crow) Andy: You know that Brandon Lee is Bruce Lee’s son. Ron: No he is not! Andy: Yes he is. Ron: You know he got killed on the set. Andy: Yes. He got shot by a gun that had blanks. Ron: No, it wasn’t an accident. Andy: Honey. Really. […]

  • Joanie Loves Qa-Qi

    Andy: Well another year and we didn’t study Buddhism. Ron: Do you want to do that for 2007? Andy: Yeah. I just feel like I need some sort of spiritual practice. I need to get my qi flowing. Ron: What about your cha? Andy: What? Ron: The opposite of qi is cha. Andy: No honey, […]

  • Project Ronway

    And it is Thursday. I presume Ron is working since I haven’t heard from him yet. He is ‘on reserve’ this month which means he only knows when he might work on certain days. Then last night he got ‘converted’ which means he has to be ‘on call’ and they can give him 3 hours […]

  • Kringles and Bubblers

    Ron confirms that in Wisconsin Danish pastries are called Kringles and water fountains are called Bubblers. Is he pulling my leg again? Please confirm.

  • Ron Back From Kuwait

    That is all. He’s sleeping. Shocker. I know.
