I got a great big envelope full of papers from the Social Security Administration today. I hate dealing with this stuff, and in the past I’ve shuffled it off ’til later (which never comes). I hate the “D” word so much that I just can’t deal with it. Today I opened it, did the forms, put them […]
Yay ShadowKatt!
She got her yellow belt a couple weeks back, and bad mommy didn’t mention it. I’m proud of you sweetie!
I Have a Bathing Suit!
And it fits. And I don’t hate it. The process of getting it wasn’t horrific, and it was under $20 instead of $90 like the ones I’m seeing in catalogs. Yay Walmart! I tried on a two-piece at sambear’s urging, and he really liked how it looked. I just wasn’t up to wearing it, though. […]

Less Miscellany Than Usual
Once the realization is accepted that even between the closest people infinite distances exist, a marvelous living side-by-side can grow up for them, if they succeed in loving the expanse between them, which gives them the possibility of always seeing each other as a whole and before an immense sky. –Ranier Maria Rilke from Letters to […]

If it’s mediocre tripe, it’s going to be mediocre tripe whether it’s “Christian” or not. I’m aware of exactly one Christian recording artist who has had […]
It’s Tuesday, Right?
Ever felt the urge to spray-paint an overpass? Friendship make prosperity more shining and lessens adversity by dividing and sharing it. –Cicero Why do I think they might do lots more laundry now? Carnegie Mellon Students Can Even Use Computers to Do Their Laundry Geez. Cynthia McKinney is running for office again. I wish there were some […]
“If it has the word ‘Christian’ in it, it probably sucks.”
I adore preachermanfeed. If you don’t read him, you should. He has been recounting his epic struggle with a raccoon in his chimney. It is a total hoot and especially enjoyable to me after our chimney struggles in 2002. And then he tosses in this bit: Let me give you a hint. If it has the word […]
