Since I've moved to LB, I've experienced more earthquakes than I had down in SD over the previous 10 years. Kind of strange. The USGS is currently calling it a 5.0. About a minute after wards, it was rated a 4.7, then after another minute they upped it to 5.0. I now know what it's like to experience an earthquake at my apartment. All the ( Read more... )

I'm tempted to start a new blog/journal somewhere, perhaps with some sort of more focused view. I'm not sure. But it feels like I should retire this one. Spent a few years in a situation I couldn't freely write about and sort of lost my connection to this space. I'm also not sure about what level of privacy I want going forward.

I'm trying to decide what to do with this now. But while I contemplate that, here's something new. And something not that new. If you look way down at the bottom of my LJ page, because I've been using it so little, you'll notice a post from around Nov 9, '07 mentioning a super secret project.

It's an attractive option in some views as it's "clean," though it's only clean in the short term when thinking about carbon output. Long term, it leaves dangerous waste products that currently have ( Read more... )

Didn't feel as though I did as well writing this one as I did the previous discussion board topic. I had waited until the end of the week to write this one up, and I should have started earlier like I did with the other one so I could refine my thoughts a bit better, though no one was responded to it yet. One of the downsides to online classes, ( Read more... )

So, I'm heading south for part of today. Might take the time to look at test driving a car or two and see if I like what I've been looking at. Getting a phone is somewhat high on my list, but I've been managing just fine without a reliable one. Just check messages at work and turn it on every couple of days. But there are people I'd like to ( Read more... )
