Two things I wish I had known earlier in playing Dark Souls ( Read more... )

I have died at least five times so far. I chose the Wanderer class again, because I like their flexibility as far as weapons are concerned. I have my orange soapstone, so I can write messages, and rate those left by others. I also discovered I can jump. It's a slightly complex action, requiring you first to sprint, then dodge a little sooner than ( Read more... )

I have three co-workers having kids this year, and I like them all, so it looks like I have even more knitting in front of me. I already have the pattern, yarn and backing for the Tankus's blanket, a blue and white star illusion blanket. Lilah's pattern and yarn are awaiting a gender ID. For Ray, I have decided to do something special. His ( Read more... )

I just realized Toby's mom shouldn't be. This is for a Good Reason, since it then defines the whole relationship between Toby and his dad. The problem is that I now need a name for the woman who helps out running the shop. I figure her name will define her, so give me all you've got.

Our sweet, aloof old poodle with the stuffing coming out is gone. I'll miss you poodley-poot-poot. Keep Whisper safe, and I'm sure he'll show you the ropes.

Frankenstein isn't some horrific lunatic, there is no Igor, and Castle ( Read more... )

HarperCollins no longer has the rights to the League of Peoples books! This is Great News! This means he can both find them a new publisher, and write more of them if he so chooses! So I'm gonna do my happy dance in the corner now, as things just seem to get better and better.

BTW: Dark Souls comes out in Octorber. Gonna need that bad boy.

I was given the task of coming up with a riddle for moonstone. I know, rather specific. Here's what I came up with-

Milky blue, a blind eye, the huntress's light trapped within the earth.

I just made my second complaint to the FTC regarding robocalls I've received from (801)846-6565. I've gotten three in the last month and a half from this number in particular, despite twice requesting they remove my number from their lists. I'm on the Do Not Call Registry. This time I even tried talking to one of their "agents" to get them to stop ( Read more... )
