I was in the kitchen packing my laptop in my computer bag getting ready to head out the door for work when my wife Linda, who usually didn't get up in time to see me before I left, entered the room with a big smile on her face and said, "Good morning, happy birthday honey, you don't look too bad for an old guy of 50." "Gee thanks, I was half expecting that...
I grew up on a small ranch...not too big and l heard in a movie that what l had would be considered a 'hobby ranch'. I was a no kidding modern day cowboy with a small working ranch where we raised horses. Nothing fancy just cutting horses...and riding horses. It was a business that l inherited from my father a few years back when he passed. My wife Becky and...
Naturally, the thing I dreaded the most was the end of the semester, when the two of us would eventually go home and not see each other for a solid month. Thanksgiving break wouldn't be so bad, since that's only a week, but nonetheless it weighed on my mind as the weeks went by.

My love, How more formal could you get by attending a formal charity ball run by the government? Yes! I forgot, an army run charity ball for Christmas. Two months ago on our first date we took me to Laserquest, a fun lasertag game with vests and guns. You kicked everyone's ass and showed that adults could still have fun without feeling childish. However .....
He knew where he wanted to go. Already an outcast, Laurentius pressed deeper into the unknown regions of the great swamp, hoping to find some sign, some indication of where the great witches would be. Lordran was the answer, but the path to those forgotten lands was elusive and strange. As long as he kept to the swamps, he was at least in familiar territory,...

Caribbean Cruises came to her rescue with an offer as a full time masseuse on their regular cruise from Miami to Aruba and Vera Cruz.
