In which I couldn’t go anywhere even if I wanted to. Freezing rain last night. It is, as they say, colder’n a witch’s tit outside. I can’t even open the jeep’s doors because they’re frozen shut. I can’t finish the BME site until — gag! — I get a copy of MS FrontPage installed. Fucking […]
In which I didn’t go to jail. I have made $0.07 from my Google AdSense ads so far. (That’s about $25 a year. Whee.) Go, me. It’s getting c-c-cc-cold here. I am not diggin’ it. I much preferred yesterday’s chinook, in which I wore a long-sleeved cotton t-shirt and was comfortable, but right now there’s […]
In which I’m geekin’. It’s cold out, and rainy, and overcast and unfriendly; plus I got totally hammered last night so I’m veeery lazy. So: cuddled up doing some knitting is just my speed today. Superfine alpaca, bitches. So soft. I’ll probably get bored soon enough, but right now, I’m ultra super deep into knitting […]
In which I bitch but there’s a recipe, so that almost makes it worth it. I hate electric stoves! While I’m certain they’re a vast improvement over wood stoves, they still suck. Suck, suck, suck. You cannot adjust your flame, so you have to remove your pan from the burner and wait — sometimes a […]
In which I introduce you to the LOTD¹. I was reading through trouble tickets at work today, and found one that was virtually incomprehensible to me. (Yay! Learning curve!) The resolution of the ticket, was, and I quote: ‘gem install money’ Uh, WTF? So a-googling I goed. Went. (Whatever.) Turns out that ‘money’ is a […]
In which I party with the girls. After my last post, hubby and I went out for a drink. Well, several drinks. I sat with a couple of women and talked and drank, and Bread went off with an old friend for awhile to go look at something somewhere — some boy thing. When he […]
In which Internet friends are just as good as meatspace friends! Seriously! Dude. Yesterday I had class until 4:30, then Bread picked me up and we went out to the farm. We made dinner together, with chicken from his mom’s freezer and veggies from AmmZon’s garden. Basically, everything save the tomato and the garbanzo beans […]
In which we invent a new cocktail. Gorgeous and I accidentally invented a brilliant drink. Behold! Bombay Ginger-Limetini Juice of 1 lime Juice of 1/2 lemon 1-1/2 shots vodka 1 shot simple syrup 1 slice fresh ginger Stir and serve in a tall glass over ice.
In which I’m driving to Chi-town. My guru, Amma, is in Chicago today and tomorrow. I’m gonna take the Exploder and drive up there for darshan. I haven’t failed to see Mother in July in at least ten years; don’t see why I should start now. V wants me to hitch a ride back to […]
In which we find the “Greenwich Village of Indianapolis,” (don’t laugh, it isn’t polite) and it really is Good! There’s a neighborhood north of downtown called Broad Ripple where all the brew pubs and coffee shops and bike shops and jazz clubs and groovy people hang out. It’s a half-hour drive from here, of course. […]
