In which I had a dental appointment today. Okay, so, all I wanted to do was pee the entire second hour I was in the chair. Really badly. But I couldn’t, because I was getting a fucking root canal. 1. Two and a half hours at the dentist. 2. DENTAL. Motherfucking. DAM. 3. Temporary filling: […]
In which I need a fucking root canal?! My appointment was at two o’clock. I naively expected to be out of there in about an hour, but I didn’t get back to my desk until a quarter past four. First of all, nobody told me about the smell. The drill wasn’t that loud nor did […]
In which I’m finally rid of my married name! I decided recently to get a passport. No real reason. I don’t have any travel plans, but one never knows — and I have the money just now so what the hell. Maybe I’ll get to India before I’m 50. Today I went to my second […]
In which there’s a tech support puzzle for you to solve. A customer calls in because she can’t send email. She can receive email and she can surf, so the connection is up. I walk her through the settings in the email client and have her correct the following: – SMTP server name field (it had had […]
In which I don’t know where to see Mother this year. The US Tour schedule just came out, and wouldn’t you know that a friend is getting married during the Seattle dates and I’ve already committed to singing at her ceremony? Meaning, of course, that if I see Mother in Seattle, I’ll have to leave […]
In which there’s a party. My friend Embo had a birthday yesterday. We took balloons and cupcakes to the bar and got drunk. It was fun. Pictures are here.
In which decorating has unexpected results. In an effort to celebrate the season, which is Spring, I guess, and some Xian holiday I only vaguely care about, I filled these bottles with colored water yesterday and put them on the kitchen windowsill: Nice, huh? I pretty much nailed the whole pastel thing, don’t you think? […]
In which I’m feeling bitchy, so I’m going to bitch. 1.) First of all, that rain? Isn’t just rain. There’s fucking snow in it. I know this because I just rode my bike to work in it, and now I’m cold and wet and my space heater died so I’m going to stay this way […]
In which I get some bad news u guise! I have to get holes drilled in one of my teeth!!!!1! [dropcap]I[/dropcap] have never had a cavity IN MY LIFE*. I’m that one person who can say, “I have never had a filling. Ever!” (I have bad skin and have to wear glasses, not to mention […]
In which we’ve moved. Keef has been hosting goblinbox.com for free for years on a sandbox server he had co-located somewhere in California. That box finally got compromised. (I’m surprised it took as long as it did, honestly.) He decided to take the box down since he wasn’t really using it, so I had to […]
