Programming note

I should probably let you all know that I’m getting my wisdom teeth pulled in about 12 hours or so, and will be given a great many painkillers. I will thus be unable to walk, think, or speak, let alone type for at least the next couple of days. I will try my damndest to ...

It’s all coming back

Yet another reason I’m glad I’m out of D.C.: No more constant 9/11 tributes every time I try to listen to the radio. D.C. has every reason to have more 9/11 coverage in its newspapers and TV stations and news radio stations. After all, almost 200 people were killed when a plane hit the Pentagon. ...

Odd questions that pop into my head

Ok, so I know from talking to other women that I am not the only one who gets that weird naked feeling when I shave my legs if I haven’t shaved them in a while. My question to the gentlemen: Do you get that when you shave your face in the morning? Is it more ...

The long goodbye

Back in old Ev,IL

I have returned. Details at 11. Or possibly 1 or 2, whenever I happen to roll out of bed.

The dust bunnies are after me!

Home is an odd thing, especially when your task is to remove it of all traces of your life there. All my stuffed animals? Most given away, a few I can’t bear to part with bagged up and ready to come home. The giant piles of magazines? In the trash or boxed up. All my ...

Fun from the Trib

Farmer Fights To Fend Off Freaky Shroomers. You may have to register to view the article, which is obnoxious but worth it.

Oot of Toon

I’m going to be in DC for the next little bit helping my mom get ready to move, so I probably won’t post for a few days. My apologies to anyone who finds this weblog terribly interesting.
