In which I need. I need to quit being so old and fat. Because it’s constantly uncomfortable. Jeez. The joints, the ankles, the ugh. However, problem is, I dislike diet and exercise a great deal and also time appears, in this plane, to be linear, so apparently I’m fucked. Such a pain. A pain in […]
In which WHERE THE FUCK DID I PUT THE CILANTRO SEEDS?!?!? Planted some seeds today. Should have done so the 1st, but whatever. Hopefully they’ll germinate well. Had to re-order cilantro because I can’t find the seeds I got a couple months ago. Also ordered a compost bin thing for the yard and some compost […]
In which there is an anniversary. Two fucking decades ago, on the 9th of March, I registered this domain name. I was working as an engineering assistant at a small ISP in rural Iowa and since part of my job was second and third-tier technical support, I was encouraged to learn HTML. So I did. […]
In which I’ve put “blog” on my to-do list so I can check it off. Yes, hello. Happy Pi Day! Spring is coming, there are tiny crocuses and the little tree in the side yard is in bloom. Work is picking up enough that instead of not having enough to do, there’s too much to […]
In which there’s an update. Yawn. I’ve been watching Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Disenchantment lately. Fun TV. Today in cooking, I packed chili, a baked potato, and sour cream and cheddar into a bento for lunch. Turned some beans leftover from making the chili into refried beans, and made Taco Bell-style red sauce, and put […]
In which I’ve put the fall leaves window clings up, and am looking forward to cardigan weather! Not much to report, really. I’m just blogging because it was on my to do list and I’d rather do this than run the vacuum. I work, I hang out at home. That’s about it. I stepped into […]
In which it’s my day off. He burned another personal day to sleep in, which is his choice, of course, but I’m still aggro about the year he didn’t have any time off left when I wanted us to go on a trip together, so I rolled my eyes at him. Like, he never does […]
In which saving teeth is far from cheap. The pandemic started and I kept getting money. Not complaining, but it was a bit baffling: the stimulus check, then two aunts and an uncle sent cash, bless them, and then a Minnesota tax refund I’d forgotten about filing for appeared. All told, a few grand. And […]
In which too many are not, for a variety of reasons I won’t get into, taking this shit seriously. Half the customers in the cheese shop these past few weeks have been tourists. White people on vacation to wine country, visiting tasting rooms, hotels, restaurants, and my place of work in sleepy little rural Oregon, […]
In which THERE WAS AN EXPENSIVE DENTAL PROCEDURE. Last week, on a whim, I called the dentist across the street from the one that keeps postphoning my appointments, and they got me in TWO HOURS LATER. This place doesn’t take my insurance, but my insurance doesn’t cover most of what I need anyway, so what […]
