How long have you shopped at Bookmans? I'll bet that if you thought about it, your answer would invoke many memories -- not just a generic number but of homes lived in, records listened to or movies watched with friends and family. Ask any of our cashiers here at Bookmans Speedway and they will tell you that we hear stories like these throughout our day. The stories are part of Tucson's retail history and part of the ongoing tale of Tucson's citizens and our community.

* by Elaine Eckert, Manager of Bookmans Ina

With the beginning of each new year, folks tend to reflect on the last twelve months and take a closer look at themselves.

This year we wanted to shift the focus away from the standard diet or habit quitting and look for ways to be a new you by focusing on the needs around the community.

We featured an art contest for grade school ages to raise the awareness of the damage done by bullying and held a free family movie night. All of our Saturday Craft-a-paloozas focused on creativity and self-acceptance. But the biggest success we had this month was a fantastic response from customers and crew regarding the Red Cross blood drive.

The Konamis: Pinfall

 


Read More...

This year was my ten year high school reunion. Growing up I felt like I had a pretty good idea of what it would be like to be in high school. These ideas were formulated by a little TV show called Saved by the Bell. There were going to be jocks, geeks, preppies and the bullies in leather jackets. Imagine my surprise when I got to high school and not everyone fit into these molds, myself included. The biggest thing my high school experience had in common with Saved by the Bell was the full-length lockers (friends of mine who went to other high schools only had the half-sized lockers).

Bob Oldfather, my boss and the owner of Bookmans, contacted me a few months ago about a contest about retail. He thinks our story is worth telling and wanted us to enter. I couldn't agree with him more. The National Retail Federation contest "This Is Retail" asks us to address how retail creates opportunities. There couldn't be a better company than Bookmans in this country to represent what retail means to a community.

Bookmans has always been more than a bookstore and working here has always been more than a job. Every Bookmans employee can attest that working here is unlike anything we have or ever will ever experience. Bookmans has a life of its own and we've adapted to the laid back, fun and unusual ways. When you work at a place like this you become accustomed to no two days being the same or even any two hours being the same. By the minute the store is filled with new customers, new product, new questions and new experiences.

We're expanding our musical equipment sections and are looking to offer fair, fast deals on everything from guitars to amps, pedals to wind instruments, drums to banjos. A huge section at the front of Bookmans Flagstaff is going to be musical instruments and equipment. We need your help to stock and shop it. We currently have two Ibanez guitars, an electric acoustic ukulele, a Simon Patrick acoustic guitar, a couple of studio speakers, two mics, a pink youth guitar with a built in amp and speaker and a Japanese Pippa, which we are currently repairing.

The Konamis: Paint the Town

Winter is coming to Flagstaff. Halloween hasn't yet passed and we've already had a bit of snow on the ground. After the collapse of our store in 2009 it's hard not to be a little leery of snowstorms. There was a time in human history when almost everything we did was decided by the seasons. When storms came our forefathers and foremothers huddled in the half dark around fires telling stories about other winters and hoping any traveling friends would survive the night. These days we put on our North Face down jackets, warm up our 4-wheel-drive vehicles and drive to the grocery store for milk and bananas. Or some of us do.

There are many ways to foster team spirit at work and it seems that the best way to an employee’s heart may be through his or her stomach. With this belief in mind we’ve decided to start a monthly culinary contest at Bookmans Flagstaff where winners get a bit of trade credit (perhaps for more cookbooks?). September was mac-stravaganza month and October will be choco-love! As we all know some food combinations are better than others, but one combination that always rules is the famous Macaroni and Cheese! It’s culinary genius.

Over the third weekend in September we had Mac-Stravaganza, a friendly (and super delicious) competition between employees, and I can safely say it was a huge success.

The Konamis: Lincoln With a Bazooka

 


Read More...

This morning I disrobed (I don't actually wear a robe -- robe is a weird word I won't wear) and got into the shower. I squatted down to let the brownish-red tap water run through my hands (we've been on vacation) and contemplated a plan of attack for my shower. That is, I thought to myself "First I'll shampoo. Then I'll wash my face. Next...". I became conscious of what I was contemplating. Seriously, what the funk? I shower in the same order/fashion/manner everyday of my life. Do I really need to re-examine the efficiency of my shower habits? Do I just dally and dawdle away my shower each morning? Do I need to tighten things up? Am I that pressed for time? Have I forgotten how to clean myself? Is this some early form of Alzheimer’s Disease?

 


This isn't actually Travis, just how we like to imagine him in the shower.

With Father's Day approaching I am reflecting on how enigmatic and important the dad influence is. Some stories and memories that stand out the most are: letting me steer the car when I was about 9 years old, taking me to Toroweap Point at the Grand Canyon and letting me walk right up to the rim to see it the way the first explorers saw it, and telling me not to run when we were face to face with a mama bear and her cubs.

While pushing my two-year-old around the house on her glider bike, I felt something in my lower back give. I was on the floor in a dignified “I’ve fallen and I can’t get up” state with my daughter and Airedale Terrier looking down at me with puzzled concern. “Mommy, did you fall down?” my daughter asked. “Yes babe, I did.”

I recently celebrated two milestones, my sixth year of being employed at Bookmans and two years of handling Community Relations for our Phoenix and Mesa locations. It seems like only yesterday I was working behind a hotel front desk when one of our guests told me he was the contractor for a new bookstore opening up around the corner. Imagine my excitement when I found out who it was. I had been shopping at the Mesa and Flagstaff locations for about five years at that point. The next day he brought in a business card for the store's manager and said they were hiring. I sent off my resume and received a call back to schedule an interview. Based on previous experiences, I had dressed up but felt over-dressed when I was greeted by a gentlemen wearing a Ramones t-shirt and beanie cap.

Since returning to work at the newly reopened Bookmans Flagstaff, my two-year-old has decided it's a great time to start getting her molars. Despite painkiller dosing, she's been awake an average of two hours each night, usually between 3 and 5 a.m. Of course, we have to get up at 6 a.m. in order for everyone make it to work and school on time. In other words, my opportunity to sleep ends around three in the morning.

The Konamis: Comin' to Town

To my friends, family, and customers in Flagstaff and Northern Arizona,

Here it is, almost a year since I received that fateful call, “The roof of the Flagstaff store has fallen in,” my first thought was some friend is messing with me, uh yeah, sure whatever, no really the snow caved in the roof. Really? Yes really! What, like a corner? A hole? A little bit? No the whole thing! The whole thing, what do you mean the whole thing? I could not comprehend what “the whole thing” might mean. “You know, the whole thing, all of it, a total loss.” ... It was something my mind couldn’t quite wrap itself around, like light years, grains of sand on a beach, or some such... but as all of you know, it did happen. After over 23 years, Bookmans Flagstaff was no more.

Ahoy! You wouldn't have found sales starting at 3 a.m., lawn chairs poised waiting at our doors, or long waits at the cash register at Bookmans Phoenix on Black Friday. Instead of the chaos that most retail stores exhibit, we took a fun spin on things with Blackbeard Friday to take the edge off everyone’s busiest shopping day of the year.

The Konamis: Zsa Zsa J’accuse

Some days I just wake up feeling pissy. This morning, I'd already been up three times in the night with a teething toddler, it was four a.m., the fire had died, it was dipping below sixty degrees in the house, and, to add insult to injury, I realized I was out of coffee. I stood at the counter contemplating throwing my french press across the kitchen, as I might have done before I became a mother. I just leaned on the counter for a moment, collecting myself. I'm not a morning person, but I am blessed with a lark for a child. Just put one foot in front of the other, I told myself.

“Are you sad mommy?” my two-year-old asked me.

“Yes, hon, a little.” I responded. I let myself take a few more moments, bent over my empty coffee can.

“Please take your head out of your hands,” Max told me, “it's not time for whining.”

I had to laugh, hearing my own words echoed back to me this way. But she was right, the time for whining had passed. “How 'bout we read Hop on Pop?” Maxine suggested. I made some strong black tea, banked the fire, bundled a blanket around my child and I, and settled in for some Dr. Seuss.

The Konamis: Coffee Break

My mom was not a cook. She did encourage us to cook though, and never made the kitchen off limits, which is possibly the best gift I ever received. My mom cooked on holidays. It was a production that we went through two or three times a year. The Ducharme Household Presents: The Holiday Meal! It was memorable, but not for the food or even for the production. It was great because we were together. When I was fifteen, I became a vegetarian. To my parents’ credit, they were very supportive. I spent a lot of time explaining to people that I was a vegetarian, especially at Thanksgiving. For fourteen years I had the same conversation with my mom. It went like this:

Mom: It’s Thanksgiving, what are you going to eat?

Me: Food.

Mom: But it’s Thanksgiving! We’re having Turkey! What are YOU going to eat?

Me: Mom, you’re having one turkey and seventeen side dishes…of VEGETABLES. I’ll be fine.

My mom is in no way alone; many people think Thanksgiving is a Turkey Holiday. Turkeys don’t and neither do I.

The Broadway Palm Theater is celebrating its 10th Anniversary Season with the Best of Broadway. First up is their production of Sugar, based on the Classic movie Some Like It Hot starring Tony Curtis and Marylin Monroe. The Broadway Palm Theater had been in talks with Actor Tony Curtis to make an appearance on their grand opening night on Oct. 8. Tragically, Mr. Curtis passed away on Sept. 30. Our deepest condolences goes out to his family, friends and fans. He is a true Hollywood legend.

As the saying goes, "the show must go on" and it did -- in style! Upon entering the theatre, patrons received the true Hollywood experience. As theatergoers walked the red carpet, flashbulbs popped, arrivals announced, and "stars" collide. Each guest mingled with the likes of Lady Gaga and Josephine Baker. Many of the regular folk in attendance arrived in the spirit of the event, dressed as Dale Evans, Audrey Hepburn, Truman Capote, Keanu Reeves and Tina Fey. A contest was held for best costume, and the dead ringer for Tina Fey won a trip to Chicago to tour the sites of the Gangsters. How jealous am I? Why, oh why, didn't I dress up?

Let me tell you a story about a girl who was obsessed with creepy winks. It is May 2010 and Ivana is at the Phoenix Comicon. Of all of the really cool stuff she could possibly win off the Bookmans Prize Wheel, she patiently waits in line hoping to win the elusive creepy wink from our Bookmans Booth Boys. She spins and the anticipation is killing her. She thinks that perhaps even a $10 Bookmans Gift Card would be cool, but her heart is set on those creepy winks because, well, what in the heck is a creepy wink anyway? Most of us are still waiting for an explanation. The clicking wheel slows to a stop...

Creepy winks! Ivana's desire realized! Deftly, she whips out her camera to catch a creepy wink on film.

The overcast skies provided a welcome relief on Tuesday morning. With temperatures still over 100 degrees most of this past week, I started wondering when the Arizona summer would start winding down. I'd been hearing fantastical stories from friends and family in other parts of the country about the leaves changing colors and sweaters coming out at night. Not here in Phoenix. The A/C was still on high with no relief in sight. But the little bit of rain on Monday turned into the great storm of Tuesday.

Believe it or not, there once was a time in my life when I could do a yoga pose called “the scorpion” that involved doing a handstand (yes, a handstand) while touching my toes to the top of my head. Now, I'm lucky if I can touch my fingers to my toes while standing upright. I used to attend Ashtanga yoga classes about five days a week, and even taught some. Now, I'm lucky if I make it to a class once every two weeks. This is all part of motherhood, professionalism, responsibility. Boring, right?

Thursday morning, Sept. 23, I attended the press conference for the brand new Shift Arizona campaign created by the amazing individuals of Local First Arizona. Watching Kimber Lanning speak is always a pleasure. A true power-house for her local community and the entire state of Arizona, Kimber explained to us the large impact of changing a small percentage of our spending habits. I absolutely love the tag line, "A local shift, a big lift for your community." By taking on the simple goal of shifting 10% of your spending habits to support a locally owned business you can make a big impact. When you spend in Arizona, your money stays in Arizona. Shopping local takes a little more effort, however it doesn't have to cost you any more money. Using the Local First Arizona business directory, you can quickly find out if there is a local alternative to your needs. I personally have been doing what I can to create new spending habits. I've realized that it's not that difficult and I feel much better knowing I am doing what I can to support my immediate community.

Considering Bookmans' backing of film screenings for Naked Lunch, A Clockwork Orange, and The Life of Brian for our Fight Censorship month it seems apropos to discuss attempts to reign in movie makers under the Hays Code. Actually, it was the Motion Picture Production Code, but that's boring, so everyone just referred to it by the author's name, Will H. Hays. What? You don't know about the Hays Code? Okay, I didn't know about the Hays Code, so I did the googles thing and discovered it was created in 1926 and formally adopted in 1934 by The Motion Picture Producers and Distributors of America (now the Motion Picture Association of America) to squash freedom of expression for movie makers without federal intervention.

For five of my six years at Bookmans, my job has included event planning in Phoenix and Mesa. Let me tell you, it's a labor of love to bring to you, our beloved customers, the polished end-product. It is also one of my favorite parts of the job. I enjoy working with the Events Liaisons, Todd and Yvette, as a team to brainstorm new and fun ways to make annual events better than the last. We are constantly finding ways to breathe new life into every day activities. At Bookmans we don't feel restricted by the idea that we are "just a bookstore". Thinking outside of the "big box” makes room for the inspiration to create engagements that you would never imagine doing in a bookstore.

Almost everyone in my family is a lawyer, and they've all been trial lawyers at one time or another. My mother once told me that whenever she would get really nervous to stand in front of a judge, or, on occasion, the whole supreme court, she would imagine that the judges were all sitting on their toilets, taking a poo. She said it reminded her that whatever our jobs and responsibilities, we're all human. Her internal giggle made it possible to start her case.

"It's a free country!" I taunted my parents when they attempted to crush my efforts at expression. Growing up in a military town in Oklahoma, I felt the power of those words to the core of my being. It was drilled into every freedom loving student at East Side Elementary. Is there anything more patriotic than such a declaration? Of course, we all know what a load of crap that is where sassy kids and their parents are concerned, but even as an well-aged citizen of the good ole U.S. of A. my free speech has boundaries. According to the Art Law Library, those limits include obscenity, fighting words, fraudulent misrepresentation, advocacy of imminent lawless behavior, and defamation.

Creativity is not a crime!

Are you kidding me? I happen to think fart jokes are obscene, but it's a staple of children's programming. Slurrs against the Sooners are fighting words in my home. I have purchased more than one crappy book based on bogus reviewer claims from the back cover. What's more American than civil disobedience? I'd love to see a day go by without bogus celebrity news flashing across my computer screen.

Living in a hippy mountain town like Flagstaff, I often see the bumper sticker that reads “Follow Your Bliss” and wonder: How do I do that? What is bliss?

This much I do know: bliss is different than comfort. I enjoy an ice-cream cone, I like my high thread count sheets, I enjoy watching movies on a big screen TV, but none of these bring me bliss, unless the ice-cream is a true pistachio Italian gelato. So, how do I follow my bliss, other than shipping out to Florence? I guess I should start by thinking about what I'm doing when bliss finds me.

I thought I was going to watch a collection of clips from the long lost media known as VHS [insert dramatic music]. What I experienced was two hours of said clips, but also short intermissions of audience participation and appearances by the Everything is Terrible monsters themselves. Who knew that the creators were a bunch of seven foot tall, furry, and extremely excitable creatures who enjoy VHS tapes, Jerry Maguire, and high fives?!

I find that on a daily basis, I see more people plugged into things than not. Sometimes I am only vaguely aware of them and on days like today, I am severely annoyed. Are we truly this narcissistic and bored on a societal level that we cannot run errands (or pee) without updating, texting, or talking to someone else? I’ve observed a coworker walking from one side of the warehouse to the other texting--apparently they felt the need to text someone unknown about their journey. I have wasted many minutes talking to someone only to find that they had ear buds in and could not hear me. We have become part Borg. I look around and my coworkers are hunched at computer terminals with wires coming from their heads attached to many small devices.

Something cooler than last time... something less nerdy... this one will have to be about Hollywood and its superior skills at deceiving people with the simplest of tricks. The first completely overused tactic employed by Hollywood is the use of coincidence. This can be seen in just about any movie ever, but a prime example of it showing up is during the movie Training Day. The major coincidence in this movie is when the main character Jake Hoyt (Ethan Hawke) is about to be executed by three gangsters, when they suddenly rifle through his wallet and find a picture of one of their cousins.

In honor of the last day of animal month here at Bookmans, we welcomed local author, Pamela Venezio to share with our Bookmans kids about the plight and joys of the beautiful Mustang horses all over the country. Pamela and her husband both grew up around live horses and together share a vast love for them and informed us of the training and adoption process of a Mustang which includes: 90 days with a professional trainer and a show to follow that the Mustang displays its newly trained skills so that everyone can see what gracious and intelligent creatures they are in order to make the proper adoption decisions.

Pamela shared with us her new book, "Ripley and the Traveler,” which follows a true store about a captured Mustang horse and their journey through the training process while his new friend, Ripley the dog, helps along the way and has beautiful illustrations to follow. The book is very in unique in that it also “grows” with the child as the first part of it geared towards children under seven with shorter sentences and larger print while the other half is for children over seven with more complex lessons and writing. It’s a great two-for-one deal! Part of the proceeds of this book benefit the Mustang Heritage Foundation to help with their great cause of facilitating Mustang adoptions all over the United States. We have to thank Pamela for stopping by the store(even in this crazy weather)to share her love of horses with us and make sure to keep an eye out for future events with her and “Ripley and the Traveler.”

The Konamis: In Time and Space

 


Read More...

When I was just a little girl, not much older than my daughter is now, I was allowed to stay up late during thunderstorms. Despite all the rain in Washington State, true T-storms were unusual. My mother and I would usually gather some cookies and milk (mint chocolate remains our favorite) and get cozy on the couch facing our big picture window in the living-room. I still remember the orange and yellow seventies style drapes we would hook back from the window, how we'd pull a blanket over our knees and settle in as if preparing to watch a movie. Then, when the thunder boomed and the lightening cracked, we'd scream and marvel.

The Konamis: Dan's Guide to the Ladies (Part 3)

My daughter is currently getting her two-year-old molars, and it's almost mommy-suicide time. I've had a day or two lately, full of tantrums and night wakings, where I've wondered, “Couldn't I get my hands on some of that sleep potion they had in Romeo and Juliet, and just skip a few days?” But, alas, she needs me. I can feel the little mountains of teeth pushing up through her sensitive little gums, and I know she must be uncomfortable. But sometimes I wish I could lay down on the floor, beat it with my fists and scream because I'm uncomfortable and still need to go to work, clean the house, do the never-ending laundry...

Adulthood can suck. That being said, one good thing about having a toddler is vicarious childhood- I get to run in the sprinkler, moo in the grocery story, and read books about talking possums. I feel a sense of accomplishment when I sing “head, shoulders, knees, and toes” without missing a beat. All this while my childless friends are publishing books and getting Fulbright scholarships. “Once a Fulbright, always a Fulbright” is what they say. Well, good for you, motherhood is the same way – you're branded for life.

The Hive: The End

I'll admit it, every once in a while I need a break from that vast mecca of information, the world wide web. Basically, unless it has been work-related, I've not been keeping up with the big happenings going on for the last week or so. But in the last few days, I realized how much information I've missed out on by not having been online. It's not like I don't stay informed, either--I watch the local news every single day, but there isn't a place for something like the "double rainbow" viral video (which now has over 4 million views), or the news that Harvey Pekar passed away earlier this week.

The smell of fresh baked bread in the morning. Obscure jazz musicians. Literary authors never on the radar screen. Divorce, hypochondria, cancer, comics, nerds, friendship, enemies, Lives of cranky desperation. This is a small sampling of the cornucopia of subjects Harvey Pekar wrote about in his ongoing underground comic, American Splendor. It has finally come to an end. Harvey Pekar died on July 12 after suffering from cancer, asthma, high blood pressure, and depression.

This weekend, our very own Bookmans Mesa cashier Nancy hosted an adult art craft that we like to call Mini Books. Mini books is the art of taking small things, like scraps of paper or pictures, and transforming them into little gift books. Art enthusiasts from all over the East Valley showed up to learn this form of altered art.

Catching Zs

I'll admit, when I was first introduced to Twitter by my employers here at Bookmans I secretly thought it was irrelevant (why do I care what everyone is thinking and doing?), narcissistic ('now I'm grocery shopping' – who cares?), childish (I pictured silly teens tweeting away, the twits) and cacophonous (so many people speaking at once!). But I'm going to admit it; I was wrong about Twitter.

Twitter is a social network, but that's only a part of what it is. I have enjoyed meeting folks I wouldn't otherwise have connected with, including the mayor, college students, local nonprofit directors, stay-at-home moms – all kinds of people. Surprisingly, the average Twitter user isn't a teenager with a bunch of piercings (nothing wrong with piercings!) but a 30-ish professional like myself.

And Twitter is great for marketing. I can let a bunch of folks know about Bookmans events, sponsorships, and other news in real time. I can direct people to websites, attach pictures and video, share other people's jokes, news, updates and answer their questions – instantly. It's this real time quality of Twitter that makes it so neat.

The coolest use of Twitter, in my opinion, is as a news service. You have probably already heard that we currently have the biggest wildfire in the U.S. raging just north of Flagstaff. Over 1000 structures have been evacuated, over 10,000 acres are burning. I live on the side of town where the fire is closest, and when I first saw the huge column of smoke from downtown Flag, I thought of my partner and one-year-old, napping away in our house nestled against the smoking mountain. Here's a picture of Ryan and I searching for info about the fire.

Hello, summer! I was watching the news this morning as the anchor bantered with a guest about the low temperature of 90 degrees the city of Phoenix is experiencing this weekend like it was something to look forward to. My response? Hot is hot! I am a native Arizonan. I have lived here my entire life in various parts of our great state. While Flagstaff is nice to visit, I have recently discovered that I loathe freezing temperatures and snow. Who knew?

What I enjoy about Phoenix is that you can always count on the warmth of the sun. Like many others, I will never enjoy 45 minute treks across the Valley while my love, the sun, blazes down upon my car with 110 degree temperatures. But I welcome her brightness into my bedroom every morning.

The Believer magazine, a subsidiary of McSweeney’s, has always been a font of amazing authors, artists, film-makers and musicians that pass under the radar. The magazine’s subtitle could be “A magazine for over-educated, over-articulate nerds.” Which might seem insulting if it didn’t describe so many of my friends and coworkers (and, of course, myself). Last month’s issue gave a list of recommended books, one of which included “The Cardboard Universe, A Guide To The World Of Phoebus K. Dank” by Christopher Miller. Being a huge fan of the life and work of Philip K. Dick, the obvious target of this parody, I was intrigued.

For the last two days, several members of the Bookmans staff and myself have been setting up our booth at the 2010 Phoenix Comicon at the Phoenix Convention Center. A lot of time and love has gone into the decision making that it required to come up with the really cool items that we will have available for the convention attendees.

This year everyone will be spinning our prize wheel, hoping to win one of our exclusive Bookmans Phoenix Comicon t-shirts. My favorite part? It's always free to win Bookmans schwag! What I am really looking forward to over the weekend is to see months of planning come together for the First Annual Kids Need to Read Geek Prom that Bookmans is sponsoring.

I know, I know. Book reviews are supposed to be about new books, books that are in the news, or even better, books that haven't even had time to be in the news yet. They aren't meant to be about books published in 1996, books whose film adaptations are already more than five years old.

I'm sorry. Sue me if you want to.

I've found myself lately, miraculously, possessed of time to read books I always wanted to read but never got around to.

It's amazing.

It's like being handed a do-over pass.

My brother and I grew-up on a golf course, and we have since learned that our well water was full of pesticides. My brother developed an aggressive choriocarcinoma at age twenty-nine. He lives, after over a year of brutal treatments, but it's hard not to wonder why this happened. After an initial round of chemo and a 13-hour surgery didn't get rid of my brother's cancer, the doctor said it was time to “bring in the big guns,” otherwise known as high-dose chemo. It seems counter-intuitive to use something so deadly and toxic to save a life, but, in brother's case, it was necessary.

Some days I’m hard pressed to find happiness in a world that doesn’t revolve around me. Three things that really chap my hide this week: Law and Order got canceled, James Bond needs a bail out, and Spring in Flagstaff only got to “Sp” leaving the “ring” part to be blown away with a cold front featuring 45mph winds. People (and Mother Nature) should really seek my approval before canceling anything.

The first annoying cancellation: Spring. I rant on the weather a lot here so I’ll be brief: this spring is painfully cold and windy. I am currently wearing three layers and need extra weight in my messenger bag so I don’t get blown down when walking to work. Weather sucks. End weather rant.

Since 2005, The Arizona Derby Dames (AZDD) have been the fastest growing all-girl roller derby in the state of Arizona. The AZDD was founded by four women, Suzy Homewrecker (XXX), Joan Threat (50), All The Way Mae (213) and Prima Donna (32), who were all originally players in the Arizona Roller Derby League. That first season, I remember watching only three teams bout against one another--The Coffin Draggers, The Brutal Beauties, and The Bombshells. Over the next few years, The School Yard Scrappers and The Runaway Brides were added to the roster.

The 2010 Bookmans Reading Challenge may be over, but the kids at South Point Elementary are still going strong! With only 424 students, South Point Elementary read over 11,000 books in three months. Almost every single student increased their reading ability by two levels and the students are more excited about reading than ever. Today, I awarded the students for their dedication with an assembly. Heidi Bonfante, their reading mentor, and I spoke about the importance of reading and awarded their top performers in the school. With thunderous applause these lovely young ladies humbly accepted their bags of Bookmans goodies. Afterward, I was able to chat with the children and we all shared cookies. I heard that yesterday, Mrs. Henderson's fourth grade class had a field trip to Bookmans Phoenix where Miss Yvette showed them around the entire store and rewarded them with a party for reading the most books during the month of March. Congratulations South Point Elementary, your kids rock!

Who knew that my mom was cool? I always have; in this world where female gamers used to be so far and few between, my mom was an original. Last year when asked my first memory of video games, I shared my experience with Frogger as a child. I loved playing Frogger with my mom and at the age of three I often confused the word Frogger with a rather colorful word that also begins with the letter 'f'. But our time together playing video games did not end there.

I distinctly remember the age when I became critical of my parents. For at least ten years, I was sure I was just a tiny version of my mother, but, as my preteen years approached, I began to realize that even my mom (gasp!) wasn't perfect. Although I was unnecessarily unkind at times about my mother's shortcomings, I knew her so well that I was mostly correct in recognizing her faults! I won't air my amazing mother's imperfections here, but the point is, we all have them.

I love my dog almost as much as my other family members. He’s an Airedale Terrier named Reggie who was so shy and sweet as a puppy that we almost named him Rambo as a joke. He was the runt of the litter, and the breeder’s “defect” puppy, since he has a pink nose (not the standard black), is small, and has crooked teeth. Reggie got to spend more time with his mama since no one wanted him, and I think that’s part of why he’s so sweet.

I love the smell of sunscreen and sweat. There’s something about human smells mixed with the chemical coconut smell that makes me happy. Maybe it’s the familiarity of the smells, like a doorway into simpler childhood times. Saturday, at the Flagstaff Earth Day Festival, we had sunscreen and sweat in abundance. There was also a familiar sight to go along with the olfactory memories, the return of the Flagstaff Trade Counter. It didn’t look exactly the same, but standing on one side going through boxes, bags and handing out trade was great. We got to open a new pack of deal cards, the first we’ve used since the roof collapse, and tell people “Give us about 15 to 20 minutes to go thru this.” Everything was so familiar, like when you camp out. You’re still cooking, but outside.

I don’t know about you, but my 18-month-old daughter and I start to melt down if we spend too much time in the house. That’s why we dig worms out of the garden whenever we can. We also take a magnifying glass outside to look at pinecones, take walks (slowly) in the woods, wash stones in bowls of bubbly water, catch and study bugs, go to Thorpe or Bushmaster park (Maxine calls it “wheee!”), or go get a juice and coffee at Late for the Train and run around Heritage Square. We also go visit our friends farm (in progress) or head to the Arboretum and catch the raptor show if we’re lucky. Unfortunately, there are spring days in Flag when your hat flies off and your eyes fill with grit if you outside; you know the type. That’s when we have to get creative.
