In which I’m going out of town! YAY! The guy who books me for his Children’s Benefit holiday concerts every year, and on whose album I sang the summer before last, has booked a gig for his sometime-band The Seventh Ray. In Vail! Colorado! In the freakin’ Rockies, bitches! I’m going to Vail for a […]
In which I’m amazed, dismayed, and groovin’. 1. It fucking snowed. Snowed! On April 11th! 2. I drove past Los Portales and it appears to be closed. Like, permanently. WTF? 3. My b(r)other and I send each other MP3s via gmail. I finally got the last few he’d sent me downloaded and imported into iTunes […]
In which I go on and on about crap like WP plugins and widgets and CSS. I have made this new template work! Yay! In more than one browser, even! YAY ME! It turns out that IE gets pissed if the math doesn’t work in one’s CSS; in other words, if your container is 800 […]
In which breakfast is the best meal of the whole morning! Vegetarian white trash breakfast from hell… …is a light rye, veggie sausage, plasti-chee sandwich, with a hash brown patty and a home-made latte. It. Is. Good. …and Dinner: In other news, a falafel place opened up (!!!) in the front of the Hickory House […]
In which my financial situation gives me The Dread whenever I think about it, which is not very often. Denial ain’t just a river in Egypt. Last night, my roommates went to see Clapton in Moline, IL so I had the whole blessed house to myself for the evening. I sat in front of the […]
In which that tiny little screwdriver comes in handy! Once upon a time, I bought a little glasses repair kit. It came with a little magnifying glass, four tiny little extra screws, and this kick-ass little screwdriver all snug in a plastic case. I use it to tighten my glasses once in awhile, and I […]
In which I liked it enough to make it a second time, which means that the recipe goes on the intarwebs for YOUR reading pleasure! This soup is easy to make, nutritious, and cheap. I’ve made it twice — the first time I made it up as I went along, and it was yummy enough […]
In which this is all the news that’s fit to print, and it ain’t much. We had friends over so I stayed up way too late last night, and now I’m sleepy. You’d think someone pushing 40 would have figured out how to go to bed on time, but no. I act like a little […]
In which there’s a totally half-assed review of a book I’m still reading! I’m currently reading Alpha Centauri, which came in one of the boxes of books my mom sent. “From a grossly overpopulated Earth in 2239 A.D., an exploratory colonization mission to Alpha Centauri finds Mies Cochrane carrying an autovirus inside him that, after […]
In which xkcd continues to be one my most favorite strips. I love xkcd because interspersed among the math/geek strips are random gems like this one: Heh. Guess what I’m doing this weekend!
