Does Size Really Matter?

Wed, 01/21/2015 - 1:42am
We often joke in my house that size matters. This is primarily because The Captain is 6'4" and I am 5'0". The difference in our heights can make all the difference in what kind of car we buy, where we live, and even what size bed we get. Mainly we have to adapt to his size. I fit into nearly anything. The only hitch here is that I can't reach the top of the cabinets and that's rather frustrating. That's also when size matters, because I have to call upon The Captain to retrieve items for me he put there without thinking I may need them. We're talking things like glasses and frying pans. Who puts frying pans on the top shelf, I ask you?

When minutes matter

Wed, 01/21/2015 - 1:42am
For about 25 years, Paul Coffey kept fire-resistant clothing in his pickup truck so he could be the first to arrive at Craig's burning buildings. When he got there, he'd check to make sure no one was trapped. He'd see where the nearest hydrants were. He'd figure out what equipment his fellow firefighters would need. By then, at least one of the fire engines would be en route, and he'd fill them in, over the radio, on what he knew.

Travels with Harry Potter: in the backpack

Wed, 01/21/2015 - 1:42am
Thirteen. I'm pretty sure that's how many times I've read the third Harry Potter. Why the third? The third I read first when I was 12, obviously not fully grasping the importance of a chronological series at the time. While waiting feverishly for the next installments, I naturally read and re-read what was available.
