In which I get the first of many packages. When I got to work this morning my new phone, an LG Lotus LX600, was on my desk. I unpacked it, which required opening about six plastic bags and removing five plastic clingies from various of the phone’s shiny surfaces, and plugged it in. Then I […]
In which I publicly admit to stealing resources* from my employer. I’ve been running a little eBay side business from my desk this week. In between calls I’ve watched my auctions, printed shipping labels (with the work printer, on the work paper*), and packed Priority Mail cartons with old electronics (and taped them shut with […]
In which today brings a us recipe! Left Coast Girlie says: “Here’s the yakimandu recipe. You can remove the meat and use tofu and veggies like mushrooms and cabbage…. Thought I’d share.” Yaki Mandu 2 pkg. (30 sheets each) wonton wrappers 1 lb. lean ground beef or chopped sirloin 2 medium carrots, chopped 1 large […]
In which I’m fat, obsessed with bento, and refusing to see any possible correlation between the two. Misc Teh BF’s bento box arrived so I packed a lunch in it and gave it to him today. He seems pleased. My mom has emailed that she needs sci-fi, so I’ll be lugging a pile of books […]
In which I shamelessly plug my auctions. This week I’ve listed four items for sale on eBay: An old Gameboy Advance SP (sold!) an eBookwise 1150 ebook reader a Toshiba e400 Pocket PC, and a Dell Axim X51 Pocket PC. I did this because I no longer need, want, or use any of these items. […]
In which we’ll miss the little poodlet. G’ma had to have Chipper, her poodle mix, put down last Wednesday. He’d gotten despondent and the vet had put him on meds for diabetes; G’ma and my brother took turns sticking him with a needle twice a day. A week later he was vomiting repeatedly and was […]
In which we were out of town for 26 hours and it was HELLA FUN! Teh BF asked our employer if we could leave at six o’clock on New Year’s Eve. Our employer agreed! So we checked the weather, talked it over, and then gleefully took mmmFiber up on her offer to overnight at her […]
In which I want the whole Intarwebz to know how good those folks are over at Valley Vision. Last month, I acknowledged that I really could not see anything clearly any more. I know what traffic signs say because of their shape and color, but I had to admit I really could no longer truly […]
In which I tell you what I got for Xmas! Christmas day was fun. I slept in, which is always awesome. Then I vacuumed the living room, helped G’ma with food preparation, set up the card table and found chairs. Around 1:30 the family showed up. We ate, opened gifts, and then had dessert. It […]
In which I was born into a world that did not contain the word “blogger.” I’m not going to call myself an early adapter because I’m not. But I have been blogging for about eight years now, and in spite of having lost a shitload of content over the years – server crashes, failed backups, […]
