Encyclopedia of Your Ordinary Life...


Ok, so this was the album track I took at CKU this spring, and I really enjoyed it. The track was based on the book by Amy Krouse Rosenthal, and I thought it was just such an awesome idea that I had to do it. Of course, I also promised myself that I would finish my wedding album first, and since that's not done, only the first few letters of the scrapbook are done. Anyway, I am going to try to adapt the concept for my blog. So, here goes:



A
Apple Cider: Love it!
Airplanes: I'd never been in an airplane until I was 20, but sometimes I think I've made up for lost time. I'm not one of those people who is afraid of planes, so I really enjoy flying.
Aunt Rose: My "little old lady." At times infuriating and stubborn, but I love her anyway. She enjoys the casino, so Brian and I always make time to take her over there, as well as watching Tigers games with her and playing cards/dominoes/other games with her and Phyllis, her friend. She turned 87 this year, and we took her to the Tigers game vs. the New York Yankees (turned out to be the only game in the 4-game series that they lost), and had her name put on the scoreboard during the birthdays. She didn't say it in so many words, but I think she secretly loved it - I know she enjoyed the trip to Detroit, especially since we went to Greektown beforehand!
A: The only grade I was happy with when I was in school.
Aimee Mann: Great musician with a gorgeous voice and intelligent lyrics (which totally gets me interested in the music - I can forgive a lot for a little intelligence in my music).
This week's blog posts brought to you by the letter "A". Stay tuned for "B"...
