My ramblings and wanderings through life

  • Well, I think I’m nearly done moving all the content over to this new site. Just the laborious task of moving the photos over…. The hope is that all the separate blogs/links (blogger, tumblr, etc.) that were connected to my site will now be housed here since I can now easily post while traveling or otherwise away from my MacBook. While I love my MacBook dearly, I also want it to last as…

  • They say laughter makes a healthy heart. For me, being with you is just the start. Not only do you make me laugh, But you really are like my other half. Where I am lacking You are abundant Where I am weak You are strong Time spent with you is never dull. You make every part of me full. I love you – both parts and whole. All this to say – You…

  • My page is undergoing some major adjustments and will be back – new and improved – soon… I hope! Stay tuned!!! -T

  • Somehow I managed to get as much sleep as is possible in a strange hotel room. Though I did leave the TV on for much of the night to comfort me – not much of a comfort still…. Breakfast, like dinner, is included in the hotel fare so I went down for a very meager meal. The standard breakfast in this part of the world seems to be fake sausages, hard-boiled eggs, pastries/breads,…

  • First, calling the taxi service through the Al Ghazal (Trans AD) system was one of the most responsive services I’ve ever encountered in this city. Within five minutes of me calling to reserve a cab to take me to the airport, I was in the taxi on my way! Abu Dhabi International Airport is one of my favorite airports in terms of getting through check-in and immigration. Though the airport itself leaves quite…

  • _The Lost Symbol_ The past few books I’ve read have been read on my iPhone through an application called Stanza. It’s really great for traveling because I don’t need to pack a bunch of heavy books – with weight and luggage being such an issue these days – and it’s convenient when I have to wait in lines at the doctor’s, car wash, wherever! However, I did find when reading this book that…

  • _Eat Pray Love_ by Elizabeth Gilbert As you probably know, contemporary novels are not my general cup of tea. I prefer the classics with language usage that is strange and odd to read out loud. I appreciate the skill and talent it takes to weave a story with words alone. Elizabeth Gilbert took me through a crazy story of a period in her life. From the beginning I felt like I could relate.…

  • It’s been ages, I know…. My computer was away and so my blog has lapsed… Plus, now I’m thinking about changing hosts for my website again as I’m too dependent on my Mac to be able to update….Anyway, I babble. On April 16, Tom Jones was in town and I was there to take it in. Truth be told, I wasn’t really sure I knew who this guy was, but once I heard…

  • My bag is packed and waitingThe sights to see I am anticipatingYet it somehow seems less exciting Without you. Tomorrow I’ll be in a different placeUnknowns of culture and people to faceInteresting experiences to be had should be the case But without you. It is really only for a few daysSpace and time away really paysTo make the heart grow in ways So it must be – Without you. -T~April 1, 2010

  • Well, it’s been a year already since I took my first solo trip. Last year, I was pretty excited about my trip to Egypt, but this year I feel a bit differently about my heading to Jordan. Initially, I didn’t really want to do this trip alone as I sorta learned my lesson from traveling alone in this region, but then no one could go or wanted to go with me and I…
