Have you ever even heard of broomball? It’s a sport. And it’s played in an ice rink, if you’re fancy. Real down-home broomball is like a ‘poor-mans’ version of ice hockey. It’s played pretty much the same way, if not the exact same was as real ice hockey. I’m not real keen on the rules and [...]

I realize that the title may sound a bit random. But isn’t PLSF random? I don’t like to be pigeon-holed OK!! My boyfriend, T, is a mini-golf fanatic. I don’t really know what it is about the silly game that reaches out to him. The neon golf balls? The “interesting” courses? The fact that he’s [...]

And by house…I mean tiny apartment. And I don’t really think that I’m going to be burning it down, but that’s what T said when he saw the lint filter on the dryer. He also followed that up with, “When was the last time you emptied it?” As if I had any clue. It’s a good half inch [...]

That’s right. We’re doing an Ode today. I don’t really know what “doing” an ode means, but were going to be ode-ing today. About the magically delicious Blizzard. If you don’t know what a Blizzard is, I apologize. I apologize for the fact that you have never been able to experience one of the greatest [...]

Yo! Check back later today for some more updates and Ike pics. The Internet was down this evening and then T was able to connect to my phone. So he woke me up. The Internet is back on so I will do a post later today. After my beauty sleep. My phone seems to be [...]

Hi everyone! I made it through Ike last night and as you can see the power here is already back on! Last night at about 5:00 a.m. is when it really started getting nasty here. The power went on and off about ten times and then finally went out at about 5:15 a.m. It was REALLY [...]

Hey Everyone… I know that I will probably have a million hits on PLSF today since everyone will be worried about me and will want to see what I have to say about the hurricane. Ok…maybe not. But I’m glad that YOU’RE here. You’re the only one that really matters. Hurricane Ike madness is in [...]

Tomorrow we can finally get back to our regularly programmed blogging. My life is back in order as I have finally picked up and “read” the entire new catalog from IKEA. Reading an entire catalog front to back takes time and that doesn’t leave much room for anything else. I know there are some of you out [...]

T is heading back to Nigeria today for another month of hard work. He was actually scheduled to leave last Sunday, but the trip was rescheduled because of hurricane Gustav. As you Houstonians know, Gustav didn’t do a thing. No rain. Nothing. Well, it did give the news folk something to talk about all day [...]

Puuuuuuhhhhhhhhlllllllleeeeeeeeeeezzzzzzzzeeeeeeeeee!!!! That’s what kids say when they find a stray little animal that they want to keep. And by kids I mean 23 year old females who have an unusual affinity for all non-human living beings. I’ve been an animal lover my entire life. I used to cry because I wanted a horse and never [...]
