Blech. Car problems. Our little 1992 Toyota Corolla seems to be having an ignition issue: it looks like the solenoid is on its last legs. See, when you turn the key to crank the engine, most of the time you get a click-click sound from under the hood and nothing else. After a while, it [...]
So they’re firing up the large hadron collider (which I always say as “hardon” in my head, haw haw). Somewhere, in the back of my mind, I’m half-expecting a Half-Life sort of scenario akin to when you push the sample into the testing chamber array. Resonance cascades? Temporal rifts? Opening a gateway into a sub-dimension [...]
So I have trouble keeping up with peoples’ LJs. Essentially what I have to do since I never actually LOOK at my friends page because I don’t actually USE livejournal anymore is add RSS bookmarks for every LJ or community I find interesting enough to look at and go by that. I wish I could [...]
My awesome Tensor full-spectrum floor lamp’s bulb finally died. I’ve had the thing for approximately 3-4 years now, so I guess it was about time for the bulb to bite the dust. Unfortunately, those particular bulbs do not tend to run especially cheap and I’m out of regular energy saving bulbs (or even energy sucking [...]
Today marks our (meaning Nate and I) six year anniversary.
There’s been a lot of growth, a lot of stress, hardship, triumph and joy. We’re not officially married yet, that will come eventually, but we love each other regardless. Here’s looking forward to many more anniversaries to come. We endeavor to be that eccentric old [...]
Spooooooky~ It’s Nate’s birthday today! He’s 24 and he’s complaining that he’s “sooooo old“, which is a total load, if you ask me. He was born an old man, so he can’t really get any older. I also have a couple of friends who share this birth date and it’s kind of creepy.
I’ve recently re-discovered [...]
I had a really weird dream recently… I don’t remember the whole thing, but the most vivid portion had to do with my cat, Coal. She apparently decided to nest in a small cupboard way up on a wall somewhere in the house (think one of those cupboards that goes above an over-the-stove microwave) and [...]
I never realized how boring the internet can be when my friend Lunchbox isn’t on for dorky discussions about all the things we’re hardcore nerds for.
Anyhow, I think I’ve reached a sort of milestone as a crocheter, I guess. I’m working on my first true crochet commission, for my friend Vero. It’s a scarf, and [...]
I found a couple by the front door. First one was a female, decent size and she liked to try to bite my fingers when I was handling her. I let her go after watching her scramble around the bottom of a plastic tube I had left from a set of brushes. Then, last night, [...]
I’ve been productive. Usually when I think about what to write in this thing, I think to myself, “There’s nothing interesting going on. I’m not doing anything.” But then I realized I’ve done quite a bit since my last blog entry.
I’ve been doing some writing of a cooperative sort and it’s been inspiring me to [...]
