No words typed in.
No work done on the short story.
No progress on the manuscript build.
I did journal today – extensively. And it lulled me into a false sense of productivity. Still, it needed to get out and it couldn’t be done here and I feel a little better in that regard. It [...]

Nocturnal Visitor
Well, life contines on as usual.
Except for the fact that I just heard the neighbors talking about a bear being on the street!
At least, that’s what it sounds like. We live sandwiched between two homes owned by the same extended families. One is at the other’s house, and their driveway/porch area is [...]

It’s so ridiculous. And sappy. And stupid.
And I can’t stop watching them.
:p
An endless source of amusement to The [...]

Sharp As A Needle, and Other Things

Yesterday I managed to drop one of Congo’s needles. I was trying to hold it to insert it into the insulin container. Used to having steel-toed shoes, I watched to see where it fell.
My foot. Of course.
It [...]

Second Verse, Same as the First
Tried updating yesterday, but after finishing, I sent the update only to receive a page saying, “Sorry, we’re in Read-Only mode.”
If this works, a proper update to follow.
Edit: Okay, we’re live!
First off, I found the ring and pendant, thank the Universe! I did another round of checking, again through my usual [...]

I hate Fire Alarms
Mostly because if you want to cook anything good at any sort of a good temperature, you end up making a lot of smoke.
At work, we have these incredible fans that suck out all the fumes from cooking, but at home, my fire alarm gets snitty when the temperature of the oven is over 375 [...]
