I cried.

beersandbeans — Wed, 05 Nov 2008 04:06:40 +0000

Obama WON!!!!!! The U.S. is on the right track! I am so excited I can’t even explain it. I can’t even remember the last time I really cared about a campaign and here I am crying because I’m so happy. This is f-ing awesome!!!! Everyone on tv is crying, people are yelling in the streeets - this [...]

The American Round-Up

beersandbeans — Wed, 05 Nov 2008 04:03:24 +0000

7:14pm, Pacific Western Time, Nov. 4th 2008 Write that date down because it’s history in the making. I will just come out and say it. If McCain manages to pull this off than this whole thing is a sham. I have felt for months that there is no way he is going to win this election and [...]

Reaching For The Sun

This year in my little haphazard garden I managed to grow a couple sunflowers from seed! They maybe got to be about 3′ tall which isn’t that tall for a sunflower but I was pleased because they looked beautiful. They were grown in pots and didn’t have too much room to spread their roots or [...]

The almost boat & adventures in homelessness

beersandbeans — Tue, 07 Oct 2008 05:20:47 +0000

I’m the homeless blogger. I’ve been “on the fringe” for a week now. This is the nickname we have come up with. It’s been a long time since I’ve written on here but I’ve been very busy. It’s amazing how busy being homeless can make you. Ok, so I’m not dragging my belongings around in a [...]

Adrian’s Widget Playground

beersandbeans — Sat, 13 Sep 2008 16:47:56 +0000

Here are a couple widgets I have made for Adrian's campaign. Please feel free to grab the codes and post them to your own blog, facebook, myspace, etc, page. If you have any suggestions please leave a comment your contact info and I will write back. To grab the code click on the share tab at the bottom of the widget, copy the code and paste it into your blog or site. Make sure you copy the entire code or it will not work. Hear an echo? That's because I have the video one here on this post and also in my right sidebar. When this post becomes older and is no longer on the front page of my site you will only hear the one on the sidebar. If you download the video widget for your site you will not hear the echo. Any suggestions on size, links, pictures or videos are welcome. I was only able to use pictures and videos available online but if someone has others pictures I could make a widget with those as well. I would be more than happy to make specific widgets for Adrian's family, friends or the Army. Wanna change the size of your widget? If you look at the code you'll see something like this: width="300" height="271" Change the "300" to "250" or whatever size works for you and it should switch automatically. You shouldn't have to switch the height number it should just automatically switch. Keep in mind these numbers are based on the video widget, the smaller widgets will have smaller width & height numbers and you'll have to change them accordingly. Please pass these on to EVERYONE you know. The more people that post a widget on their site, means more people will visit Adrian's blog, learn about his campaign and, hopefully, sign up to become donors. Please feel free to pass the codes out at the memorial service as well, if appropriate.

Celebrate Adrian’s Life. Do something good today.

Hmm… It is still so hard to comprehend. When I checked today and saw the post I felt ruined and desolate. Even though I knew this post would come, it still hit like a ton of bricks. I cried all day at work. Adrian Sudbury, the Extraordinaire, passed away today, ending a long battle with Leukemia, [...]

Zap Brannigan - A New Friend

beersandbeans — Sat, 02 Aug 2008 01:16:52 +0000

Just a couple days ago I was thinking that I really wanted to bump into a new animal friend. Today he showed up! He walked right into my sister’s office like he owned the place. He is definitely homeless and looks like he needs a little medical attention. Guess he found the right place. Mike named him Zap Brannigan. Isn’t [...]

Seems like you and your tribe…

Decided you’d rewrite the Law - seperate the mind from body, from soul. This line has been stuck in my head all day. Wishing I could sing out loud now instead of getting too worked up. Turns out the landlords just stopped by and kicked us out. It’s not anything we did but instead they are moving back in [...]

1 a day, every day….

A travel blog with more blogs about sickness than new countries, new languages & new experiences. Yuck. I started feeling like I just can’t write what I intended to write on here until I get some of the things going on in my life out of my head. I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in Dec ’07 when planning a trip around [...]

Beat by 2 preggies & a broken arm

beersandbeans — Sun, 13 Jul 2008 01:44:33 +0000

I woke up today pretty glum and pissed off at the world. You know what? I kinda had the right. In recap: I got sick after the 4th of July party and ended up going to a different doc for second opinion on the thyroid issues. She was surprised when I told her I had [...]
