Oh, she'll fit right in...
This is a conversation I just had with our latest hire at work. I have edited her spelling and redacted the info that makes the other person discussed identifiable, but otherwise this is as-is.
me: one of our sales reps at work does keep sending me creepy worry dolls in the mail.
KC: No way! Get out.. Haha I would love to see one.

It seems like there are a bunch of people in my life trying to change their lives, talking massive overhaul of their lives. And it just makes me feel all the more like I am...not doing things. Like maybe I am supposed to be doing more than I am.
I'm not unhappy with my life. I mean, I'm emotionally volatile and intense about it, but at the end of ( Read more... ) -
Conversations I have totally never had
me: ...my brain just went "does that mean Echo has more embarrassing things than clown porn? What's more embarrassing than clown porn? OH GOD WHAT IF SHE HAS SPIDER PORN????"
If you have spider porn, do NOT share
scorpionvoices: ...I have no words. MY first thought was "if fic authors are always complaining about how hard it is to keep track of limb placement ( Read more... ) -
Not dying in the arms of a penniless sitar player...
So I have a return of the horrific cough of evil. Not sure if it's because of allergies, or because of catching a cold, or because fire season has begun in Colorado and my weak lungs could not withstand the smoke in the air, or some combination. I honestly thing it's all three transforming into some mega illness that kicked off my recurring serious ( Read more... ) -

Thanks to something ms_hecubus said on facebook today, I find myself thinking about the books I recall reading in high school. She linked an article where a legislator in WV wants to make science fiction required reading. My first thought, honestly, was "but even science fiction doesn't have a strong reputation for good representations of women we should be ( Read more... ) -
Oh hey, remember when I would blog about concerts?
So last night I went to a GWAR concert. It was at my favorite venue, a venue I haven't been to much in recent years and therefore had forgotten it is handsdown my favorite ( Read more... ) -

It's just. I don't know if it's the season, or my recent change in what hours I keep, or something else. But. I want a new life. I want to not wish that I had different friends than I do. I want to not feel like I am always going to be alone (because I hate sex, because I hate people, because I'm not enough for someone...)
I love my job. Even when I ( Read more... ) -

Ok, so. I am not sure how to even approach copyright law and fair use. "for learning" is apparently acceptable, but what does that mean? Do I need to look up item by item the things in the book I want to do so I can check if they're under copyright (most, yes) and then try to determine if my use would be acceptable? I'm not exactly gunning for a ( Read more... ) -
Everybody loves Ewoks
I could post a number of things, but life is dreary and I don't want to dwell (not today, not on Rex Manning Day) so instead, something I want help with.
So my sister-in-law is going to be making me an Aunt come December-ish.
I need to write the perfect nerdy baby book.

I may disagree with a lot of what musesfool says, but it's nice seeing opinions on comics. (Even though she is so very wrong sometimes)
Anyway. Thanks ms_hecubus for the birthday bike! My tired brain was very much "WHEE! I HAVE A BIKE! I FEEL LIKE PEEWEE HERMAN!" Trust me, that's actually best case scenario when I'm tired.
Currently I seem to be experiencing what I can ( Read more... )
