I've been slowly working on stuff to sell on etsy. It's been slow because I've been feeling pretty awful lately. At any rate, a few things have been knitted and/or sewn. Now I need to get decent pictures of them. I'll probably have to borrow Mom's camera for that. Meanwhile there are some not so good pictures on my flickr thingy of 3 of my finished ( Read more... )

As of 5:19 am Sunday morning, I am 25 years old. Feels about the same as 24, but somehow sadder.

I've been having chest pains, but it turns out they're not related; it's my lungs instead. Inflammation of the pleura. So I did get Dad's flu thing, but not in the same way he did. I ( Read more... )

Innocent man sent to Syria and tortured.

Send a letter to your Senator asking them to do the right thing regarding Bush's laws which blatantly disregard human rights.

Link of zen comes first today... because the rest of this is boring.

And this is pretty weird/funny.

And I have to link to this security analysis of the Diebold Accuvote-TS voting machine.

And sirenz' post here actually made me laugh because I had just watched Enemy of the State (which filled me with glee to see on TV) and thought "That could ( Read more... )

So I was looking up info on renewal of my Venzuelan passport, just in case I could stay in Korea longer with it than with my US one (which I just found out I can't anyway), and I came across this article from November 2003"Already facing allegations that Muslim extremists have obtained Venezuelan identity documents, President Hugo Chávez has put ( Read more... )
