Here are ten weird, random things, facts, habits, or goals about myself.
 
1. I like to replace the noun in a song with the word cat. Here are a few of my favorite cat albums.
 

 
2. My favorite coffee mug is from The Old Mill in Westminster, MA.
 

 
3. My two favorite t.v.channels are Food Network and HGTV.
 

 
4. The only Playgirl magazine I’ve ever seen was in 1986. Yes, I was disappointed Ray *Boom Boom* Mancini only showed his ass.
 

 
5. The inspiration for the colors of our urinal bathroom came from this painting in our bar.
 

 
6. These are my favorite stuffed animals from my childhood. My parents bought them at Edy’s Restaurant in Berkeley, Ca. I just found out the restaurant closed in the 80’s and was replaced with an Eddie Bauer.
 

 
7. I’m a 3rd generation Coke drinker.
 

 
8. I had my picture taken with Dennis Eckersley, retired relief pitcher for the Oakland A’s. For the life of me, I can’t locate which box it’s in (see 9 below).
 

 
9. I haven’t unpacked all of my boxes from when I moved in with Tom 5 years ago.
 

 
10. My sister used to call me peanut-butt. (You’d have to ask her why. I don’t know.)
 

Taking Out The Trash

Posted on June 21st, 2008 by Jean

I’ve been working on this blog for about 2 weeks. Tuesdays are our trash day. Invariably, on Monday nights, Tom rounds up all the trash and takes it to the dumpster. I filmed it, but when I put the short films together, the resolution was low. I tried to add music (trash-themed), but couldn’t accomplish that either. So now, here is a photoblog about taking out the trash.
 
If you’re at our home, and wonder where to put the empty beer bottles, just follow steps 3 and 4 below. Same goes for dirty diapers!

Scented Dream Clouds

Posted on June 19th, 2008 by Jean

Scented Dreams
 
My husband, Tom, once had a scented dream.
 
Many of Tom’s dreams take place on water or in the air. This particular dream took place in a boat.
 

 
A former employee of ours suddenly appeared in Tom’s dream. Even though Tom and this woman didn’t agree in the waking world, in his dream, he helped her into his boat!
 
When she boarded, she proceeded to vomit. Tom was totally disgusted, and couldn’t imagine why she had done so.
 
Insert 1 very important detail: When Tom had this dream, I was pregnant with Pearl and experiencing acid reflux. My sickness must have entered his dream, but didn’t wake him!
 
Dream Cloud
 
Speaking of Pearl, she believes that a fluffy pink cloud arrives outside her bedroom window at night and takes her to her dream.
 

 
Last night, she dreamt of a cat playing the piano. It had her in a giggly mood this morning.
