A highly unusual, sometimes maddening,. But mostly comical way of life. February 17, 2014. Cutty sark and giant black labs. I was so fortunate to have spoken with her about Callie's Mariner this past summer and actually watched while she read the first post. I ever wrote about her, anxious for the reaction. I shouldn't have been surprised when she looked up at me and said, "Cantankerous, huh? Despite the fact that I'd spent over a thousand words of praise on her within the piece. Wife of Merchant Mariner...

http://calliesmariner.blogspot.com/2014/06/day-of-seafarer.html
A highly unusual, sometimes maddening,. But mostly comical way of life. June 25, 2014. Day of the seafarer. I could definitely go on and on about what seafarers have brought me of a tangible nature, of course we all could. But what I wanted to write about today was what. One seafarer, in particular, has brought me and I'm not referring to Beady's Law or any myth/legend about sailors. Although that would be funnier.). Why have I married a man that's never here? I stop and consider the alternative. Tha...

A highly unusual, sometimes maddening,. But mostly comical way of life. July 09, 2013. So in order to read this story, you have to know that my real name is Jennifer, not Callie, but you can click here. Afterwards to find out who the real Callie is. Promise you won't be disappointed! Life went on in this way for a short while and I found myself speaking with a co-worker one day about my father having been a merchant mariner. Unbenounced to me, another co-worker, Sweater Girl, had just rounded the cor...

A highly unusual, sometimes maddening,. But mostly comical way of life. February 13, 2013. February 14th, 2013. Have to hug him this time home. Secret Mariner Admirer from the Pacific. This romantic gesture will probably make. The following cringeworthy. Sorry. It's that time again! Beady will be home within the week and I find myself prepping for the same rituals; shaving about three. Teeth, and stocking the fridge with food instead of baking soda. I've seen so many movies over the years, read so many b...

A highly unusual, sometimes maddening,. But mostly comical way of life. February 14, 2015. High heels and the captain. I sat on the floor of the closet examining all of my shoes and wondering, 'Should I wear heels out to the ship? Okay, a little explanation is in order, right? You see, back in November, after hearing that Beady would be delayed out to sea FOR THE THIRD TIME! Yes, very impractical. Yes, wholly unreasonable. But, for me, it was a sure fire way to get under Beady's skin! She was a monster!

A highly unusual, sometimes maddening,. But mostly comical way of life. March 19, 2013. So there you are, happy to have your mariner home!

A highly unusual, sometimes maddening,. But mostly comical way of life. May 28, 2013. Just this past year, I was poking around the internet, looking for merchant mariner blogs when I came upon one written by a Chief Mate who just happened to be a woman. 'What is this sweet piece of heaven? Megan the Nautie Mermate. CM: Alright, Nautie, how long have you been shipping? Nautie: Well, I graduated in 2005, so about 8 years. CM: And what got you into this? Work on the water! Not my story, I'm the only one!

A highly unusual, sometimes maddening,. But mostly comical way of life. December 13, 2013. So tomorrow is the big day. After 10 years, Beady and I are heading out for a more southern adventure. The house has been sold, the boxes packed, and the tears are just starting to flow, AAAUUURRRGGHHHH! I'm a hideous crier! So farewell for now Portsmouth, NH.it's been a wonderful 10 years, I couldn't have asked for a better time. SeaPearl in port, one of many that moved through each year. And even better food!
