One more post, in the spirit of the day...

Found one of those really goofy online calculators today. This one, appropriately, was the "love calculator."

Type in your full name and your sweeetie's name. See what happens.
My spouse and I were a whopping 90-something %, which is higher than any other two names I typed in.

I tried T with Kelly Monaco and, thankfully, got a mediocre 51%.
You'll be happy to know that Anderson Cooper & Michael Jackson were only a 19% love match, interestingly enough only two percentage points lower than MY INLAWS.

And, in perhaps the funniest and most fitting fashion, Dick Cheney & George Bush...85%.
Bet we can guess who's the top and who's the bottom in that relationship.

As Heilemann and Remington, we got 85%. As Remington and Remington, we dipped to 26%. Perhaps I should have kept my maiden name...

Anne...perhaps Dr. Love just wants to make sure he's not promoting some sort of incestuous business. This isn't Utah, after all...

I don't know about that last name bit... we scored 94% when both were Olsons and 91% when I switched to my maiden name.

Interestingly enough, my parents scored a 26%. Ouch.

So, I Changed My Mind

More than four years ago, the blog and I parted ways. I needed a change. A whole lot happened in my world since then. I switched jobs a couple times. My kid went from an elementary school tween to a teenage high schooler. We built a new house and moved. Both my parents and my sister have passed. The world around me changed as well. Mass shootings, racism, the #metoo movement, a misogynistic bigoted narcissist in the White House ... go ahead, add to the list. Toss your woes into this dumpster fire we call 2019.  I appreciate my previous sentiment, that I was no longer wandering. But let's be honest, we're all trying to find our way through this mess. I decided to reboot the blog to give myself a creative outlet, a way to sort through the confusion and frustration and attempt to make sense of it all. I have a voice, and I'm not keen to silence it anymore. Guess what? I'm back, bitches.

In memoriam...

I remember the first time I heard the name "Les Anderson." A bunch of Wichita State University communication majors were sitting around on campus, talking about classes they planned to take. Several people warned me: watch out for Les Anderson. He was tough. He had a murderous grading scale. It was nearly impossible to get an A. They weren't kidding. But he wasn't tough just to be a tyrant. From his teaching sprang a fleet of incredible, successful journalists, writers, editors, broadcasters, public relations experts, advertisers, non-profit professionals...I could go on and on. Most importantly, he created a legion of people who wanted to make a difference in the world. The greatest gift Les gave to them all? He believed in them, cared about them for their own personal stories as well as the stories they told for class assignments or in the pages of his hometown newspaper. Les was my teacher. My boss. My mentor. My conscience. My champion. My friend. When I started c...
