While Halloween is still in full swing — judging from the apparent busload of children currently tramping through my neighborhood — I wanted to comment on a recent installment of the “Thought Balloons” blog, commenting on yet another blog and titled “No Love for Bloodsuckers.” Unlike the blog authors, I happen to like good, gothic [...]

Or should that be catsup? Since I’m food-minded right now… I just got home from Sunday dinner a little while ago. Now THIS — besides my temperature/climate issues — is one of the reasons that I really don’t see myself ever living anywhere other than the South. I am INSANE for Cracker Barrel. Now some [...]

No, I’m not quoting (or misquoting, depending on how picky — or not — picky you are with translations) from the EVANGELION movie. I’m sitting here debating whether or not to call in sick to work. You see, the headache that started yesterday afternoon, lasted through dinner and the drives to and from Tampa and [...]

I’m up too late, and I happen to come across this. Makes me happy I’m not a Japanese woman. I’d die of mortification if they ever had something like this here. >_

Up: JR and I actually managed to surprise Mom with an impromptu birthday party. Down: Found out that someone didn’t receive a message that I thought he [...]

has officially extended to my blog. Oh, my…

But then again, I like GUNDAM SEED so much that I’ll take it in just about any form I can get for my weekly fix. :-) Tonight’s episode was the last Saturday night one, though. I desperately need to remember to be at the TV at 1 a.m. this coming Friday/Saturday. Uggh. The last WOLF’S [...]

Despite its inauspicious beginning, today was actually pretty good. Grabbed lunch at Chili’s, paid a couple bills and did some shopping. (Which, as people acquainted with me know, always improves my mood.) This year’s fall clothing lines have been somewhat lackluster — mostly rehashes of stuff that’s already in my closet — so I’ve been [...]
