In which I’m blogging because I feel obligated to do so. Happy holidays! I logged in because it’s well past time to blog again, but, well. Eh. Not much going on. I work the same job, live in the same house, am in the same relationship, eat the same foods. Since my last post one […]
In which IT’S HERE! Week before last I was surfing Amazon and the reviews for the modern typewriter are pretty terrible. They’re made of cheap parts because to make them of good stuff would make them cost far too much, and nearly every model has a review that says “This is cheap shit, I hate […]
In which I slept until one o’clock. The Yeti is off at Microsoft for a week-long tech conference, and I have a cold or something. Started out yesterday feeling tired after a good night’s sleep, swollen glands, and a vaguely sore throat. Went to work, came home. Woke up today feeling so incredibly meh I […]
In which nothing. I keep forgetting to blog because it’s 2024 and people don’t read blogs anymore, which means there’s no engagement, which means that thing in your head that tells you to blog is now telling you to spend three solid hours scrolling Bluesky instead. Anyway, it’s Monday, my day off, and I’ve gotten […]
In which there’s an update. I used to find it much easier to post regularly when I both had things to bitch about and felt fine about bitching about things. But now I think it’s not that great a habit, and also whatever I might have to complain about is less a problem and more […]
In which I’m tired of yard dogs. I live in a very small town full of very large yards. One should, I believe, do pretty much whatever one wants in their own yard. Rip out the turf and put in vegetables or wild flowers. Park a fucking car on blocks. Build a little free library. […]
In which I, with great originality, talk about the weather. The weather has been shit! Utter shit! Like, Midwestern-style, cold-as-fuck, stupid shit! Snow, freezing rain, and temps well below freezing! Fuck this shit! When it’s in the teens, the furnace runs constantly. There are drafts in the living room (it has two plate glass windows). […]
In which there’s complaining. So I’m riding home from work the other day. It’s past four. It’s dusk. It’s foggy. So, it’s still light out, but only barely, and my colored bike lights are lovely. There’s a light rain. It’s in the 40’s, so, it’s chilly but not truly cold, and I’m properly attired. It […]
In which it’s been grey, overcast, and foggy for a few days but it FEELS like it’s been MONTHS. We had T-day alone, just the two of us. Which is how we normally do it, because we spent so much time so far away from family. This year most of the family had mild medical […]
In which I have letters after my name now. Got the results email, for the cheese professional test I took in July, and am pleased and surprised to learn that I passed! I thought for sure I’d failed. I mean, I got all the questions about Ossau Iraty wrong because I’d never eaten it and […]
