In the new apartment, waiting for the Uverse technician to return from wherever the magical box is outside and finish my installation so I can stop mooching off someone else's Internet and also (ta da!) have cable...after a year without it.

I planted strawberries and poblano ( Read more... ) -

Laboring mightily under an awful cold virus or whatever the heck these stupid things are that we can't seem to cure. I think I might be the most cold-prone person in the world right now. Bleh. I am more than ready to be over it...walking that line between wanting to get out in hopes that it will make me feel better, and not wanting to exhaust ( Read more... ) -

I have nothing to say today. Weekends go far too fast. I have been slowly and not particularly surely beginning to write again, but I also got Netflix, and Jonathan and I are addicted to The Wire. Oh yeah, and fall TV has started, so writing has an awful lot of laziness to go up against ( Read more... )
