It’s been a little crazy since the beginning of the year, and I’ve been a music slacker — falling into the pattern of listening to the same three or so CDs over, and over, and over, and… You get the idea. ;-) So I’m searching through MySpace, looking for something vaguely representative of what’s playing [...]

The flowers are holding up pretty well, considering I’ve had them about a week. I’m glad: I kind of needed to see something pretty when I came home from work. After spending about three hours wondering whether or not it was me — or if the office truly was warm — and feeling on the [...]

A very productive, yet moderately relaxing weekend. ^_^ In addition to computer stuff, work stuff and the normal weekend activities, I taught myself how to knit. What you see above is the first actual project! All of the actual knitting is done, and what’s left, i.e., the sewing part, should be a snap.

My right hand and wrist hurt. NOT fun, especially since everything I do depends on my writing hand working. BOO. >_<

Insane weekend. Some work stuff. Some family stuff. Some fun stuff. I did something fairly decadent and bought three new sets of flannel pajamas. Now, those of you who know where I live may say, “Why?” I keep my apartment at 72 degrees year round, and I live in them when I write and work [...]

How could I resist? It’s a Hello Kitty phone strap that I didn’t have to import!

Unfortunately for me, the first Comic Book Day of 2006 coincided with my first quasi-carpal tunnel attack of the year. (Translation: I self-imposed a ban on non-work computer use because my wrist was really feeling shredded, and this list is two days late.) At least I had plenty of reading material… – FROM FAR AWAY, [...]
