Well...
Given the new terms of service, I think I'll stay on the safe side and collect my old entries. I don't really use this anymore - or any other place really. I've kind of fallen out of the habit. But I'd still like to make sure I don't lose the old stuff I'd already left out ( Read more... ) -
Er. What.
When I was little, and I'd tell one of my parents that something hurt, they'd occasionally joke "Well maybe we should cut it off," so they could laugh about it and help me realize it wasn't all that bad ( Read more... ) -

Today, in Saving Money this-isn't-news
My mother asked me to get her some new oven knobs, as the writing on the ones she has has worn down enough to be effectively invisible. I took one with me so I'd get one that would fit, not having checked first (and thus would have known that most of the available ones would fit ( Read more... ) -
Apples and allergies
In my late teens, somehow or other I developed an allergy to many varieties of vegetable matter. Fairly mild stuff, a bit of airway restriction mostly and itching all over my head, and only when I ate the unprocessed stuff. Apples, bananas, carrots, broccoli, spinach, you name it, I probably couldn't eat it ( Read more... ) -
This is different for me.
