Speaking of Treme…. which I was, if you look at the end of the last post. Isn’t it weird that blogs are posted in reverse chronological order? In my first blog, I posted everything in chronological order with a link at the top of each post (all of it was hand-coded, so I would move [...]

I love to comb through various community events schedules and calendars and pick out activities that I might like to participate in, but on the day of it, I often go, “Ehh” and stay home. Tonight’s activity is an event way, way down south in Jefferson City (40 miles, to be exacto) and it is [...]

I Did So Put a Bird On It

This struck home, yes it did. I didn’t need to be in Portland, either. Birds can be put on anything, anywhere!

How I Came To This Momentous Decision
September 23rd, 2010 · No Comments · In Summary, Television
Tracy has commented more than once in the past couple of years how much I have changed since I met her (lo these many years ago). Another nail in the coffin that was my 20s? I cancelled my TV service last week. I have been a big-time TV watcher for a long time. I don’t [...]

My Everest is 17 Days in a Row at the Gym
May 18th, 2010 · No Comments · Movies, Pointless Updates, Television
I’m still kind of testing the waters with regard to all of the posts that are now appearing here automatically from Twitter and Facebook and Flickr. They rely on plugins, not all of which work very well. I am not the greatest of hackers, so it takes me time to figure out why things aren’t [...]

Cold Weather and the Media I Consume
October 23rd, 2009 · No Comments · Books, Movies, Music, Television
It has been rainy and chilly for the past couple of days, but it is supposed to be warmer and sunny this weekend. My fall clothes have been getting a workout, including a new pair of knee-high boots that I bought a few weeks ago. I just love them. I’ve been wearing them at least [...]

How I Am: Disorganized, Living Alone, Giant Nerd

I refuse to be swayed by the disillusionment that seems to be sweeping parts of the uber-left wing of the Democratic Party (especially my gay comrades; like, shut up. I agree that DOMA and DADT should be handled, and soon, but pretending they are priorities above the health care, war, and economy disasters that are [...]

Home From Florida, and All the Stuff That’s Broken
June 11th, 2009 · No Comments · Music, Television, Travel
We returned on Sunday afternoon from our Florida vacation, but here it is a few days later and I’m still not recovered. I often feel this way after a vacation, any vacation, that I should have just stayed home for a few days if I wanted to relax, because with the traveling I usually feel [...]

Round is Funny

I started bringing my own bags to the supermarket about a year and a half ago, and in that time it’s become radically more socially acceptable to do so. At least in the eyes of the checkout kids, who used to give me a kind of exasperated attitude whenever I’d bust out my assortment of [...]

Erugh… No Longer Sick, Just Tired & Cranky
February 10th, 2009 · No Comments · Endless Blathering, Movies, Television
Ugh, I’m recovering from a cold just now. It was the fun kind that zaps a whole weekend. I had to cancel a couple of plans- dinner with my International Center friend, lunch for my grandmother’s 80th birthday- and just sit on the couch with a box of Kleenex. I was disappointed to miss out [...]
