Everything I need to know in life I’m learning from The Sims. Seriously. For instance, once you play The Sims a bit you realize that you spend most of your time cleaning up after your characters. If you hire a maid for a mere $10 an hour, though, your life gets incredibly easier. Well, two weeks ago Nick decided that life on Rannoch Road was getting unbearably messy. It’s true; we hadn’t vacuumed in months and the same sticky pots are always sitting by the sink. So Nick went out and hired us an angel. Her name’s Dana, she’s a middle-aged Italian woman, and she’s a gift from God. Friday was her first day and I almost didn’t recognize the house when I walked in. She must’ve been there for six hours. She even cleaned out all the lint behind the dryer. We love our Dana. Our lives are complete now.


Important Note

This site features content going all the way back to 2000. The posts you’ll read reflect my views and writing style at the time. While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown. Any blog post written years ago may not reflect who I am today, nor how I would write about the same topic today.
