It's been a while since I've done a meme, so when sfeley posted this one, I jumped on it. Because I'm looking for distractions tonight. You see, I tore my ACL back in February. Because of my age, it was decided I didn't need surgery. But pieces of that ligament are still floating around my knee, and every once in a long while, they get stuck where ( Read more... )

Well, the kid went off to his second week of camp today. and I left him up there with a fever, so I have a feeling I'm not winning any parenting awards today. However, this is something he's been waiting for all year. So - hopefully he'll get over this by sleeping it off tonight - if not, I'm going to be heading up there again tomorrow ( Read more... )

Ok, well that isn't true. I can get to the part of the Internet that my Sidekick can get to, but that isn't much. Especially when I have banking and Paypaling to do. Grrrr ( Read more... )

I've been playing a lot of Guild Wars lately. I managed to obtain a copy of Prophesies, so I'm playing in there as well as in Factions. The game is really addicting, and playing with other people is like a drug, and I'm finding, quite necessary to complete some missions. And while I still think my mouse and keyboard skills are lacking, I love ( Read more... )

All right then, prepare for some insecurity of the MA sort....

Wow, I actually finished the podcast the day before it's due to drop! My first one where I had to create most of the content, and I'm pretty happy with it. One part had a list of things I've learned this week. I have a feeling the lists will be a regular part of the podcast, I like the semi-scripted feeling of them ( Read more... )
