Technically, I suppose I could take a shower. As long as I didn’t let the water drain. We typically call that a bath, don’t we? Oooo, and then I could bail the water out with a bucket!! Fun! You should always try to look on the positive side of things, you know. Anyway, Ron’s getting [...]

Well, the booklist page is pretty much rebuilt. The only thing missing is the audio book section. But all the books I’ve read since November 03 are listed there. Give or take. I’m sure a few (many) slip through the cracks. Additionally, I have just finished entering in all the books that are on, or [...]

I have so little faith in technical support. You know why? Because I deal with it every day. I suppose I’m jaded. In the same way a doctor probably makes a bad patient, I make a bad technical support customer. I would like to get on the line and just demand a senior tech from [...]

Well, it’s bad news, kids, in the flushing department. We are going to have to have the side lines replaced. This is the line that runs from the house, under the driveway, across the front lawn, under the roots of several very tall pine trees, and out to the main line, which is run by [...]

“I’m happy to take this offline and drive a strategy around this.” See, now I find that odd. Because I’ve heard that Strategy’s are a pain to drive…. around anything. Lack of responsiveness, annoying torque steer, darty acceleration, and a vague off center feel. Frankly, I like something with a sportier ride. Bookmark on Delicious [...]

I went to my mommy’s house to take a shower and perform a toilet. I smell all pleasant and clean. Like soap… and green apples. [that's the shampoo]. Now I am preheating the oven to make myself some pizza, and my goal this evening is to do something about my disastrous NaNoWriMo word count. And [...]

Sewers are something you probably take for granted. Until you don’t have one. Then, friends, you’ll understand the genius that is indoor plumbing. Our adventure in sewers begins Friday night, when I decided to run a load of darks, in the washing machine. I heard strange gurgling noises. I had heard them before, when I [...]

I started back to work today. And I mean that in the loosest sense. Once I made my way through the 600+ emails I had, I was pretty lost. I asked EvilDeb what is was I did every day, that I remembered being busy. She doesn’t know. I figure that whatever it was I did, [...]

My NaNoWriMo project is going poorly. I’ve started and quit about three stories so far. I’ve got about 3700 words of crap. Give or take. But I am completely uninspired. Which lead to some random, free form typing. Which is how we got the story of Princess Pancake. In which our heroine goes off in [...]
