I’m officially a CSI junkie. I’ve started turning on the TV in hopes of finding it on some channel. I’ll watch Law & Order if I can’t get CSI, but it’s a poor second. Next thing you know, I’ll actually…
A Day of Rest
And damn, did we need it! shadowkatt and I, that is. Now that we have three running vehicles again, we’ve been catching up with lots of things that were rescheduled during the transportation drought. The girl is tacking the bow…
To Clarify

Damn
I just sat through an episode of Young Hercules. The best thing I can say about it is that it only lasted 30 minutes. One of the best ways to know that I’m sick: I’m watching TV. As in, pretty…
Today’s Measure of Success
I’ve kept ginger ale and saltines down for almost an hour! Yeah, well, that may not seem like much to you. But my day began with visitation from last night’s dinner and got worse from there. I couldn’t keep plain…
