A few minor changes to the look and feel here.

I mean not to offend :-)

Alright, first broadcast from the new pad. It's really starting to take shape in here, and should be a swinging place by this time next week. I would like to throw out some "mad props" to all the crazy kids who helped me move . . . an undertaking that was far bigger than I had anticipated. But then again, I'm known for my advanced skills in ( Read more... )

Wake up grandma, wash the sticky children's hands and put on your Sunday best because TIM TAMS ARE NOW AVAILABLE IN THIS COUNTRY!!!

They are called "Arnott's Originals" or something to that effect, though.

So begins the last week of the era of apartment 1221. It's going to be weird leaving it behind as I've come to count on it in a lot of ways.

For ¡d, for S, for C, for A, for L, for M, for J . . .

Fool enough to almost be it,
Cool enough to not quite see it.
Doomed.So I only decide to write when I'm feeling all sappy. Well, I'm trying to be less quiet, and today's a day I felt being less quiet. Maybe for good reason. Better reason than usual, I suppose. I have been quiet, and it's ( Read more... )

It's been a long December,
And there's reason to believe
That maybe this year will be better than the last.

I'll try to be less quiet next year. I just wanted to thank those closest to me for everything over the last little while.
Here's to love and friendship.

. . . all will be well.
God bless.
