In the past month two people have commented on any of my posts. So I feel like I'm just writing to myself. Looking at my stats page, it appears that I really am just writing to myself ( Read more... )

Day Two of No Doctor Appointments for an ENTIRE Month, and I am bored out of my skull ( Read more... )

Mister has been as much of a blessing to me as I have to him. I rarely think about my pain. I don't get bogged down in inappropriate coping mechanisms. I take fewer pain killers. I have goals, I wake up and am happy, his waggly tail and puppy kisses and snoring in my lap and waking me up in the middle of the night to go out make me feel like ( Read more... )

The Bolingbrook Freecycle group sends out, every month, a safety guide email to all participants. For the most part it's just "don't be stupid" but they always include this language ( Read more... )

"Wow ( Read more... )

So I decided to buy Catan. Every time I try to start it, it crashes. I wrote to the developers who suggested I turn off my ipod and turn it on again. (Okay, that's more of a paraphrase) In my original email I had already detailed the things I had tried so my response to this was a reminder of everything I had previously said and that I tried ( Read more... )

Does anyone have "Catan" amongst their game apps? It's $5 and I don't know if I want to buy it or not. I have something like $18 credit in the app store, so price isn't so much an issue, I just don't want to spend $5 of that on a game I won't like ( Read more... )
