I know something about the loss of a child.  I know something about hanging onto hope despite all evidence to the contrary (waiting in the emergency room hoping against hope that they would be able to revive Paul).  I know what it does to your heart, to your head, to your stomach.  I know something about grasping at straws.  Read more >

I have often said that I am singlehandedly keeping Amazon.com afloat (though I've heard others say that too, so perhaps I'm not alone).   Their marketing techniques and suggestions of other items I might like to buy, based on my past purchases are sometimes to blame.  I have been known to be an impulse buyer, especially if a book looks particularly enticing on Amazon.  Read more >

About Me: 

I am a 65 year old part time theatre critic. I foster dogs for the SPCA and enjoy photography, videography, writing, and being a couch potato. I have posted a journal entry every day (with very few exceptions) since March of 2000 at my journal, Funny the World. Each entry comes with at least one photo. Topics run the gamut from buying a bra in a fat lady store to ranting about the death penalty, and just whatever happens to be on my mind on any given day.  For those who prefer to subscribe, I have a mirror blog, Airy Persiflage (content the same as my journal), and a Video Blog, Funny the Vlog.
