Let's see, what has changed in the year and a half since my last post? The co-worker whose house warming I went to moved a couple hours north of here, so is no longer a co-worker. Another coworker was let go for reasons I'm not sure of and can only presume another coworker is correct in what she told me, since I have no way to verify without ( Read more... )

Cannot say anything noteworthy has happened in my life since my last post.  Work is about the same, life outside work even less changed.  I'm so boring ^-^;; Story inspiration has been particularly and painfully lacking in the past year or more.  That, I think, is the hardest part of the monotony.  I used to count on my imagination to improve my ( Read more... )

I'm beginning to think there's no help for XP anymore. I have not one, but TWO computers, both of which were protected by McAfee, that are basically defunct after they were hit by viruses from different sources that both attacked the Windows program itself. (One my brother loaded Windows 7 beta onto, and the beta is over, so it's stuck until I get ( Read more... )

It's also a month overdue, but as promised...

This was the back of my head (and my back) the Tuesday before Mother's Day...

I WON.

Just a note to declare that I still count myself among the living, breathing masses, in spite of evidence to the contrary.  To those I have fallen out of contact with, rest assured that I am not angry, or intentionally being rude... it is just my habit that if I have nothing to say, I don't.  I can say without hestation that it's one of the major ( Read more... )

 A Merry Christmas to All!

...now, what the )#*%&@ am I doing up at this hour?

...)#*%&@ing nose woke me up, is all.  I'm getting old, I no longer stay awake to this hour willingly.

What is with people at church telling me I should be a canter?  Our canters aren't that bad, though the one we had today had a bit of a bad day.  I get the feeling she wasn't actually supposed to do it today, so had not had the opportunity to practice, and got stuck on two songs that she hadn't heard any more than the rest of us.  We had the first ( Read more... )

Here's hoping that I do not get blocked from my own journal for changing the icons and updating for the first time in almost a year and a half.  Yeah, I cheated and used Gaia to come up with some characters for some of the new icons rather than actually trying to draw, color, and etc. stuff... but I stuck with my random decision to only use icons I ( Read more... )

There are a lot of rocky outcroppings on my way to work. During the winter, run-off from precipitation can freeze on these outcroppings, creating formations that look like frozen waterfalls. They are beautiful. Near where I work, there is currently a rather large formation, which someone, somehow, dyed with food coloring. Today, I finally got far ( Read more... )
