Tale of Two Kitties
Some weeks ago, Liz heard a cat miaowing outside in the night, and we went out to investigate, flashlight in hand. We found the creature on the side of the house, and it looked just like our gray long-hair Yoda. It wouldn't come up to us though, and when we got back inside, there was Yoda, looking up at us with his usual blank, wide-eyed stare ( Read more... ) -
Irked at Firefly
Presidents' Day, watching a Firefly marathon. Still just can't see the appeal of Mal, but the rest of the cast is worth watching. I think it's the writing. He's supposed to be the hero, but he comes off as sooo skitzo.

tomatoes you'd like to throw at a Neocon
I got home from the north, fully expecting the wonderful tomato plants I grew--from seed--to be burgeoning with the juicies. Well, they were that--sorta. Make that squishy, black on the bottom, and rotten through ( Read more... ) -
back from Ontario
I spent a week and a half in northern Ontario with my friend Emily. She owns a piece of a small island in the middle of a beautiful lake. We kayaked, (Emily swam, though I did not--too damned cold), chopped wood, cooked over a cast-iron stove, picked blueberries and made pancakes with them, went to a bookstore/lending library that I think has ( Read more... ) -

As of this Friday, I'll no longer be working for RSA (my second job--stocking cosmetics and baby supplies at the local Martins.) They lost their contract with Giant (Martins's parent co ( Read more... )
