More specifically (I hope), something in it. Not Sam, happily, but every time I go in there, I’m all stuffed up within a few minutes. We keep that room closed and have a window a/c unit in there because the…
Review: Sunshine by Robin McKinley
Wow. That was a good book. It was a little hard for me to get into at the beginning. This excerpt is from the first chapter, and if you don’t feel as–jangled?–as I did, perhaps it’s just me. But I kept…
The Girl Is Better! And More Reading
That’s a relief. I was getting quite worried. She spent most of the weekend sleeping or looking like a zombie, eating only what Sam could coax into her, and using heating pads. I’m starting to think that we should accept…

Sunday, Thing-a-Day3
I did more webifying today and got all happy because I resolved a template problem. I don’t “know” PHP, as in I don’t write my own scripts. I’m learning more and more about it working with other people’s templates, and…
