In which there’s a request — from Shigeki — for a recipe. I’m so happy to oblige! Broccoli-Cheddar Soup 2 T. butter 1/2 onion, finely diced 1 clove garlic, minced 1 small carrot, finely diced 1 T. all-purpose flour 1/4 tsp. dried dill 1/2 tsp. dried basil 1 whole clove 1 bay leaf 4 c. […]
In which I cook Indian, freak the fuck OUT — omg! you have no idea! DUDES! — on a virtual world, and talk about the perils of knitting. In the process I manage to put a rather astonishing number of links into a single entry. (Mouse over ’em for snap-ups!) This morning (and I use […]
In which there’s some good news… for once. We don’t have to move! AmmZon’s mother has offered to sell her the house, and at a remarkably reasonable price. AmmZon is considering it, and in the meanwhile: we’re not evicted! Yay! I can stay here until I get a job and an apartment! My previous employer […]
In which it’s practically a holiday. Today is AmmZon’s birthday, and we’re going bowling just like we did last year. (Well, actually, AmmZon and Truck have already left to go bowling, but I’m not dressed and it’s fuckin’ cold out and I might drop by there and have a drink when I go out to […]
In which I present you with a list of my recent accomplishments! Yay! 1. I finished knitting the first gauntlet. 2. I applied for a job at Cambridge. 3. I wrote a letter to Brumbaugh & Quandahl, PC, LLO, Rat Bastards about the levy on my checking account, inviting them to either provide evidence that […]
In which I know what I need! I know what I need! I was over at Copperred’s this morning and he’d posted about watching Pinky and the Brain and suddenly I realized… that’s what I need! Some Pinky! Some Brain! Hell yeah! Therefore, someone (ideally someone with more cash than sense) should rush immediately over […]
In which the mere change of the year does nothing for me. And it is, of course, all about ME. At the awesome combination wedding reception/New Year’s Eve party I attended, someone wished me “a great 2007.” I replied that I was looking forward to 2007 because it certainly couldn’t be any worse to me […]
In which I party myself into the ground! (Eh, like THAT’S news.) This morning I emailed a bunch of cell phone pics to my Flickr account, only discover that one cannot send an email to Flickr with more than one image attached. Ergo, each of the six images that actually made it to the target […]
In which I’m all stealth. It’s That Time Of The Month again, so I’m antisocial. I did not go anywhere yesterday, and I will not go anywhere today. I might go out and rip this town a new one tomorrow, though. We’ll see. I’m online now to catch up on my email — haven’t checked […]
In which I’ve been knitting. I came down with a knitting bug, and decided I had to get a bunch of old stuff off of my needles. Some of these projects have been in progress for over a year, and that’s just wrong. So I finished some slippers, two hats, and am nearly finished with […]
