I was shopping the other day at Tar-jay (Target, for those that refuse to use the French pronunciation) with my brother when my bald better half needed to shake the dew off the lily. Rather than stop our conversation for five seconds, I followed him into the men’s room, where […]
I’m a really lousy friend to most people. I admit this. With that in mind, I tried to be a good person and support Cate in her craft sale efforts this past Saturday. Hear how it went. (Short answer: Not well.) Papa’s Basement 12-6-10 (Left-click this link to listen to […]
