My Recent Ramblings

Thoughts on Arizona. . .

Note: I normally won't post about politics or work, but I needed to share my thoughts on this event. To put the weekend's tragedy in perspective, the young Giffords staffer killed, Gabe Zimmerman, had a job similar to mine and the jobs of many of my friends. This...

I’ll admit it, I’ve been a bad Jamrockstar

I've slacked off on posting.  With the holidays, family visits, and other things, writing got pushed a bit lower on my to do list. I'm sorry. I ask for your forgiveness. And maybe a bit of encouragement too? I have a number of posts that are works in progress - I...

My view on food: A shifting paradigm

This will be the first of what I'm sure will be many posts on this subject.  As I mentioned in my post, "You're allergic to what?!?!?!", after being diagnosed with my food allergies I had to fundamentally change how I viewed food.  Gone were the days of "I don't want...

Gobble. Gobble.

I'm hosting Thanksgiving at my house this year, kinda.  It's only going to be my mom, my pops, and my roommate (as of right now).  There are a few items that I know we will include in our menu: turkey, dirt rolls (family tradition), & green bean...

Kind and Generous

Thank you. Two simple words that we really don't say often enough and truly mean it.  Often times we seem to utter these simple words as an afterthought, a p.s., a  common courtesy that ends most interactions.  How often do you go out of your way to...

After a brief, unplanned hiatus. . .

So, November 2 happened.  In the words of Forrest Gump, that's all I have to say about that.  I took some time after that to relax, do some stuff for me, injure my shoulder, rest, reflect, think, work, and do stuff around the house. It is interesting to look...

I felt like chicken tonight.

Tonight's dinner was a home-run.  Seriously.  It was utterly amazing. And simple to boot. I had some left over veggies I wanted to use so defrosted some chicken to go along with it. Here's what I did: Veggies 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into...

1.21 Gigawatts

Not many people know this, but I'm a huge fan of the Back to the Future trilogy.  I own the special edition DVD of the three movies and I've been known to just hunker down and watch them all - including with the bonus pop-up trivia feature.  I'll often quote...

Let’s be honest, I’m easily amused

On my Google Reader (which if you are not using you need to start ASAP) I have a bunch of feeds in a folder I call Snark.  Included in this collection are such sites as Regresty, You Suck at Craigslist, Passive Aggressive Notes, TFLN and I Can Haz Cheezburger....

Quiet night – perfect time for some baking

Made it home after the GOTV Rally at the U with President Obama.  It was a good time and I will have plenty of pictures soon. Decided I wanted to have quiet night at home - maybe watch a movie with the pup, do some stuff around the house, and bake some...

I can haz change?

I'm braving a trek to Minneapolis today to go to the U to see President Barack Obama.  This is the 1st of his 4 most recent visits where I get to attend as me.  Not a staffer, not staffing my boss, but as an individual. I'm kind of excited about this. I love...

My herd.

I've always been a big fan of animals and have had pets most of my life.  When I was little there was the standard string of carnival goldfish, a parakeet, a gecko (that phase didn't last too long), hamsters, in addition to Snickers the cat (that ended up living...

You’re allergic to what?!?!

After 27 years of life my body decided that it was going to be allergic to a bunch of foods.  Let's just say the process of figuring this out was not an easy one and involved a number of trips to the ER, my doctor, various specialists and more tests then I care to...

Minnesota’s Capital City – the Good Twin

For the last 3.5 years I've called St. Paul, Minnesota my home, and it truly has become that - my home, my port in the storm, my happy place.  One of the best parts of this city is the Capitol.  It is a beautiful building and one of my favorite places to...

Gratuitous first post

I've been wanting to find an outlet for various parts of my life that aren't related to work or politics - so I've taken the plunge and created this blog.  Expect to see a lot of things about my experiences in cooking, being a dog owner, my attempts at photography,...
