For a limited time, I am taking my personal profile on Facebook out of private mode so people can find me and add me... don't want to stay unhidden too long though! I have two profiles, one personal, one professional (for professional networking... while generally more searchable, I don't tend to add people there unless they work in an allied field ( Read more... )

Facebook update: since the last time I posted, I've made my personal profile semi-private... I believe you can still find me with most searches, but I've taken off the "add friend" link. You can still send me a message, though, and let me know what's up, and most likely I'll add you!! The reason I took that step was that I have several Twilight ( Read more... )

Um, nope, not dead yet... :)

Yeah, it's been awhile. I "discovered" Facebook in August, and have become quite the addict... you can find me here... the first is my personal profile, the other is my professional one. I am also on Twitter... these days I've been finding it easier to do the one-liner update as opposed to sitting down to really ( Read more... )

I am such a total geek. Last night Primary Job updated their email server (we use Microsoft Web Exchange), and today no one at the residences could sign onto email. I finally figured out that if I did a remote connection to my desktop on the server, I could sign in, and realized that the browser address had changed as well. Back on my own ( Read more... )

I wasn't going to do it this year, but got sucked in at the last minute; participating in the summer theatre workshop at MPAC. Last year I had been the only adult amidst a wash of 14-year-old boys, but this year there were more people my age. We did The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy; I was Ford Prefect and a few minor characters, as well as ( Read more... )

Hope everyone had a great holiday weekend (and a belated Happy Canada Day to my Canadian readers)! I finally feel "caught up" with most of my "To Do" list, though certainly I have enough to keep me busy ( Read more... )

So it's been nearly a month since my last update... I've just been too discouraged to post, really. This whole thing with Taz has been all-consuming, not so much from a physical standpoint for me as an emotional one. I posted updates on Twitter as things came up, and that has been about it ( Read more... )

Good news: Taz's cellulitis is starting to clear. He was on a very strong oral med over the weekend that finally did the trick, though he could only be kept on it a short time. The PICC line was installed today, and the IV antibiotics will start up tonight. If all goes as it should, he will be discharged on Wednesday with VNA services, and we ( Read more... )

About to go visit Taz again, who is particularly down in the dumps because his case seems particularly screwed up this weekend. His IV infiltrated for the fifth (!) time after we left yesterday, so now he's getting the antibiotics as shots in the posterior every four hours (two shots each time). Today they're holding his food because he's ( Read more... )
