about me

Practically imperfect in every way. Start with a lot of silliness. Mix in some insecurities and a handful of awkwardness. Add a pound of naivety, innocence, and child-like wonderings. Blend well. Half-bake and top off with a sprinkle of imagination and dollop of dreams. It’s the recipe for me!

quote of the day

  • "Moral of the story: Do not look at the gap. The gap is the mind-killer. Remember how Wile E. Coyote never fell down until he saw the chasm? It’s just like that." --Taylor "Tei" Lindstrom, Rogue Ink

dumbass quote

  • "I think we have come to find out that the Education system, run by Liberal Hippies that really couldn't find any other job that allowed them so much time off, the ability to do drugs, and to spout their rhetoric is alive and well. It is teaching out kids things like 'Abortion is Good,' 'Government is Bad.' We have educators that, for the most part, don't teach to the subject, they teach to their beliefs. It is really sad, and even sadder when you see highly intelligent children buying into it." --Kelli

Isn’t That Ironic?

July 8, 2005

About a month ago, I decided to change insurance carriers for my homeowner’s insurance. I called Karen, the woman who handled our insurance at our first apartment and our first house, and explained exactly what we needed. She was about to take a conference call when I called, but she promised to call me back later that day.

Yesterday, I realized that my termination date with BigBadInsuranceCompany was fast approaching. I called Karen left a message reminding her about my insurance. I still hadn’t heard from her at 1:30 p.m. today, so I called again. Again, I had to leave a message with her receptionist.

Karen called me back about 20 minutes later. She told me she left a message on my voicemail the day after we first spoke. That seemed a little strange, but whatever. So, as she was pulling up my quote, our call was disconnected. She called back, and before I could answer, she was disconnected again. She called back once more and told me that a storm just caused them to lose power. Her system was down, but she would call me back as soon as it came back up.

Coincidence or runaround? Ironic or just unfortunate? I’m undecided.

It’s the spark of an idea that hits me unexpectedly. It’s the silly wonderings I have after a whirlwind of thoughts. It’s about creativity, inspiration, and imagination. But sometimes, it’s just about eating noodles.
