Good things continue
Again, a quick post to encourage myself to get out the door.
First off, I woke up naturally shortly before my alarm was set to go off at 7, and then I got up! See, waking up at the right time is not all that uncommon for me, but usually I have a hard time having the presence of mind to actually get up afterwards.
Yesterday, not only did I do well ( Read more... ) -

Still Happy.
Ok, to be honest I'm more in the middle between joy and depression, but hey, that means it shouldn't be too hard to push myself into joy, right ( Read more... ) -
Time to get happy!
About a week ago I watched this TED talk with shadesong on happieness and success.
Go watch it. Now.
I'm serious!
If you don't have twelve minutes right now, here's the really short version: we should get happy to become more successful, not become more successful to get happy. One way to do this is to train you brain to focus on positive things rather than ( Read more... ) -
A dominion game in which I Win.
You ever have a day where everything just works?
Yeah, this game was like that.
It was a colony game, and starting with turn 8 I was able to go through my entire deck each turn. One of the players actually dropped out after a few rounds of this, and for once I couldn't blame him.
Hooray me! -
Kikori kits are now available!
My Sindrian Arts store is now live!
After months of testing, tweaking, moving, and building, my business is finally up and running! I've managed to get the cost of a full Kikori kit down to $3345, and to celebrate the opening I'm offering free shipping all this week!
For those of you who are not familiar with the Kikori CNC machine, it is the first ( Read more... ) -
Wait, what?
So as I was posting to facebook and g+ about an impromptu Dominion night last night, shadesong recommended that I post here as well. So I did.
I then proceeded to forget I had, since I do not have push notifications enabled for the email account that gets LJ notifications. I was thus surprised to discover hours later that people had actually responded! ( Read more... ) -
Dominion anyone?
A few days ago, I discovered that sleeving Dominion cards was a great thing to do while watching TV with Shira and Adam. Given that Adam got almost all the expansions for $WINTERHOLIDAY, this meant that there were LOTS of cards to sleeve. However, since we spend most of yesterday getting caught up on the DVR, I have now sleeved ALL THE CARDS ( Read more... ) -
Recipes!
Earlier today shadesong wrote about some food she helped me cook, and there were some requests for the recipes, so here they are! Enjoy!
First thing: modified colcannon (my own creation)
In a dutch oven melt 3 tbs butter, then add something like 4 or 5 potatoes diced and 3-4 cloves minced garlic. Cook covered on med-low heat until they're how you like them ( Read more... ) -
Game night?
So, after helping shadesong and yendi go through and organize their massive board game collection, it was decided that a game night needs to happen. I've been wanting one of these for a while. Personally, I'd like to have a biweekly game night, but it might be easier to simply schedule them one at a time.
So!
If you'd be interested, please comment with when you' ( Read more... )
