As I’ve told you, I’ve moved a lot over the years. I can’t even count the number of times on all the fingers and toes. Some of these moves had to happen very, very quickly, given my often poor choices in my love life. Others were far more...

Mystified, are you? No, I didn’t buy the farm, at least not yet. But today’s RobZerrvation does concern a topic that would have eventually meant my demise. If you don’t recognize the source of the headline, here’s a reminder: You’re in...

I have never felt too bad about being a meatatarian because I have long maintained that cows are kind of stupid. OK, not kind of. We use the term “herd mentality” for a reason. I only bring this up because of a news article a couple days ago about some...

Everyone has their fond wedding memories. Mine are more hilarious than fond, at least the first time I walked down, or should I say around, the aisle. I was married at St. Madeleine Sophie in Bellevue. This was in the 1970s and having a church in the round was a very...

You know that I know all about The Big Day. Yes, that Big Day. You’ve been through it at least once. I’ve been through it a few times more than many, but perhaps not as many as some. I even looked it up a couple days ago. It seems that one out of six...

I seem to be weather blind. Perhaps it’s because I had lived in Florida for eight years. Perhaps it’s because I’m from Seattle where you just don’t expect it to ever be nice. But when it comes to weather, I’m a bit well, agnostic. While...

I used to marvel at ants. They were such industrious little critters. Especially red headed ants. Now, I don’t know what their real species is, we just called them red headed ants because their heads were, well, red, while the rest of their bodies were black. As...
