This nonsense marks my 100th post. To show my gratitude for those of you who have visited On Tap for Today since my first post, or stumbled upon it after searching for “garden tools,” or via ICLW, or the WordPress homepage, or the Bake Sale…

Today: You can stand under my umbrella.
I think the gentleman going into the building ahead of me this morning mistook Rihanna’s lyrics for, “You can stand outside in the rain while I try to close my broken umbrella. Ella.” I said it yesterday, and I’ll say it again, You can’t win…

Today: Can’t win ’em all.
Sometimes you just have to roll with the punches. It’s barely 11 o’clock and already the day is off to a questionable start. I have an eyelash, or small fiber, or miniature American flag stuck under my contact lens and it refuses to budge. The…

Today: 38 while 28.
This week I turned 28. I tried to join the AARP and take advantage of their sweet discounts, but um… I’m not technically of retirement age yet, so I guess I’ll have to wait another year or two or thirty-seven. Twenty-eight seems to be one of…

Today: The 3rd Anniversary of my 25th Birthday.
“There are three hundred and sixty-four days when you might get un-birthday presents …and only one for birthday presents, you know.” – Lewis Carroll Also On Tap for Today: Be fanned with palm branches and served ice cold water, infused with cucumber slices as I…
