MONDAY, JULY 25, 1988 I’m in school now, wishing it were 3:30 so I could end this very boring day. But guess what? I graduate Thursday! I meet with Debbie at 4:00 today, then later on around 6:00...
FRIDAY, JUNE 10, 1988 Nervous took me over to my parent’s place. Ma was the usual bitch. I helped them bolt their new kitchen table together. Today is my second day at Mansfield Beauty School. It...
SATURDAY, MAY 21, 1988 I’ve come to have quite a crush on singer Gloria Estefan. I got my hair extensions. It looks good so long as I style it to hide where my own hair is. It cost $140. Ma hung ...
April 1988 in 1980s
FRIDAY, APRIL 29, 1988 I’ve been up since 2:00 this morning and fell asleep around 7:30. Sasha, the stray cat I took in, woke me up. I was just falling asleep again at 3:00 when Andy M called. Ou...
March 1988 in 1980s
SUNDAY, MARCH 6, 1988 Mary D called at 9am and said she was at Dunkin Donuts and asked me if I wanted to come up. Both Nervioso and I did, and he got all nervous and never shut up. We’re now on o...
February 1988 in 1980s
TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 16, 1988 Without saying a word, I called Kevin to see if he’d say anything. He did. He said, “So, you’re gonna move to the Hamden East condos, huh?” This is in response to my me...
January 1988 in 1980s
SATURDAY, JANUARY 30, 1988 I am still wide awake and I probably will be for quite a while. I thought Crystal was at work and I wondered why she wasn’t home yet, so I called and was told that toda...
THURSDAY, DECEMBER 31, 1987 Tonight’s New Year’s Eve. Another year has gone by. I woke up early and straightened up a bit. I changed the pig’s cage. They’ll need more food and sawdust today. I ...
Well, this really sucks. I started saving entries in drafts on Blogger, but it didn’t save what I drafted. So, back to Google Docs it is. I did some writing last night and I’m trying to remember ...
OMG, healthcare in this state sucks! I liked the dentist but her office staff was a joke. When Tom made an appointment with my dentist, they said they were in-network with my new dental plan. The...
Trekking through in 2020s
Not much is going on today, except that I’m exhausted. I was up for a long time, so I’m not surprised I’m tired today, although I shouldn’t be. Still, I feel like this level of fatigue is a bit e...
Making some rainbow trout with broccoli now and not quite as tired today. This is good because we want to go out to Publix later in the morning for some variety. I crashed at 5-something and woke...
Anniversary plans in 2020s
We decided we’re going to go to Red Lobster for our 30th anniversary next month, although it won’t be on the 15th. The 15th falls on a weekend and we don’t want to go then. So it will be around t...
LOL, I AI’d Crazy Kim pretty well. The keywords I gave it were “a 300-pound woman with large glasses and very short brown hair in a karate outfit.” It wasn’t perfect, but it was surprisingly clos...
Yesterday, I felt extremely cold and tired. Toward the end of the day, some of that fatigue and coldness started to fade. I need to mention this to Rhonda and get her opinion. Sometimes I think t...
Stuffed mushrooms in 2020s
Today I am not as energetic as yesterday. I’m not sure why since I slept 7.5 hours and got a good sleep score. I did wake up a little more so maybe that’s why. Overall, however, it does seem like...
Nothing woke me up, and I have decent energy. Once again, it looks like this bed is helping with my energy levels. I knew the old mattress wasn’t good, but I didn’t realize it was messing up my s...
Tired as usual in 2020s
I got into bed feeling relieved that the storm was going to miss us and I didn’t have to worry about it waking me up. But what should wake me up instead? A power failure of course. Tom still can’...
Random memory in 2020s
Random memory popped into mind. I don’t know how old I was at the time but I had to have been pretty young. We were still in the first house I grew up in so I’m guessing I was somewhere between 1...
New Mexico in 2020s
Written late last night… I was woken up by thunder for the second time and it’s not even June yet! Doesn’t look like I’m gonna get much sleep on Sunday either. I have a bad feeling it’s going to ...
Made it to Dunkirk, New York, and have 670 miles to go. I made Tom and I pork chops stuffed with bacon and cheese and it was absolutely delicious. I got us jumbo potatoes to go with it and I cou...
Westfield to Brocton in 2020s
The heavy thunderstorms we were expecting turned out to be little more than a gentle drizzle. I’m still tired, though, because I was up a long time and only slept five and a half hours. I took a ...
Big storm coming in 2020s
Just a quick entry as another annoying helicopter passes overhead. It’s just after 10:30 so hopefully all flying objects will settle down for the night. Hasn’t been too bad but still. Enough is e...
Crossing New York in 2020s
Finally got a little bit of rain this evening but my sleep is going to be totally screwed Wednesday morning. Why do these things always have to happen when I’m sleeping?! If only I could at least...
Not sure if I ever shared this here or if I’ll finish it but I wrote this a couple of years ago. If you’re like me and you hate reading long entries then you might wanna skip this. My Bio It was ...
