Have you ever had a conversation with someone, and realized something very simple is very true?  Tonight I made the comment that its pointless to put the time and energy into hating something when its so much easier to just cease caring about it.  I then immediately realized that, like in so many other areas of my life, I give good advice that I ( Read more... )

So, I got not a lot of sleep last night, due to getting done with work late and having to get up early to take myself and Mark to work this morning.  So, after lunch, I decided to take a nap.  I'd been working on my laptop, so it was on and I'd left my door open.  Valeria must not have realized I was asleep because she starts talking to me about ( Read more... )

This is an adorable song by Voltaire.  Seriously, all of us can sing and/or play it for our kids.  Its pretty mellow and a good bedtime song/lullaby.  I know its already going on a couple characters' soundtracks.  One of them isn't even in play yet.  I just love when I show someone a character sheet, or explain a concept and they immediately come ( Read more... )

So, laying on your bed, more specifically the covers of your bed, when you have satin sheets on it and trying to scoot yourself up, can sometimes result in scooting yourself almost off the edge of the bed.  True fact.

There are times when my mother really knows how to jerk heartstrings.  To explain, every year my mother does a Christmas newsletter to send out with cards.  Every newsletter's headers are lyrics from whatever Christmas song she's picked.  Like one year it was "Santa Baby" another "Here We Come A Wassailing" and another was "The Most Wonderful TIme ( Read more... )

So...my break was...somewhere between eventful and uneventful.  It went better than I expected, which is always a good thing.  I am annoyed at some family members and delightfully surprised at others ( Read more... )

Since I will be baking Friday and Saturday, I figured I'd do some baking for game as well.  I was debating between doing apple tarts (mini pies) or apple crisp.  I gave Mark final choice since a) he's sitting right here and b) he might not get to go to LARPsgiving.  So, Apple crisp it is.  Don't worry, I'll bring disposable dishes.  I will probably ( Read more... )

I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who hung out with me last night.  It was a lot of fun and this has been the best birthday since I turned 16 (cause HP1 on opening night was amazing).  Starting the weekend out with Thursday night Karaoke was lots of fun.  Saturday night's dinner was amazing.  The drinking and carousing with friends was ( Read more... )
