Hmph. I can be in pain, or I can be a little dopey. I’m not happy about these choices. I let the Ultracet get all the way out of my system yesterday, and it was A Mistake. I’m still making…
Earworm & School Nonsense & Kids
Wow—this is an earworm first for me. So I’ll share it. I like traffic lights, I like traffic lights, I like traffic lights, No matter where they’ve been. Now that I’ve been needlessly cruel…
That’s My Girl
Whoa—I took sleepytime meds on an empty stomach after not having them at all for over a week. I make no guarantees about the contents of this post. I just had a marvelous conversation with Katie about Dangerous Beauty, which…

Geeks at Home
Hmm. If there were some sort of community for home/family-oriented geeks, would you participate? I’m talking about a place to discuss things like family groupware. Or how to sync multiple PDAs so that you share family calendars while maintaining personal…
