It’s like a combination of atrophy and … something else I’ve already forgotten. Entropy? But not at all like a catastrophe. I just haven’t felt much like posting lately. There are one or two things I kind of wanted to write more than a paragraph or two about but then… meh. I’m still here, I’ll [...]

The last month or so at work has just been a gut puncher. I/we implemented a new system – to replace another that failed suddenly when another piece was upgraded (after spending a day trying to fix the old one, we simply moved to the new one, which we were going to do anyway… just [...]

Oh, bumper sticker people. Sigh. Look, if you’re going to get a bumper sticker (especially a religious one), at least make sure it’s something that a 10 year old with a dictionary couldn’t punch a hole in. Case in point: JESUS CHRIST IS LORD. JESUS CHRIST IS NOT A SWEAR WORD. Alright. Let’s just take [...]

Justwritecat hit me with the Versatile Blogger award a while back and yes, I have seriously put off blogging for a week or so because I hadn’t written this post yet. Not like you care. Now, the weird thing I that I can’t find the origin of this thing. Naturally, google is polluted from all [...]

I dreamed that Mr. & Mrs. Obama (and possibly their kids) came to visit our family as some kind of random sampling of the population or something, to interview them about their struggles in the current economy. [first time a president has ever been in a dream of mine that I can recall] So, we’re [...]

So, I’m in a plane for some reason. It’s not a passenger plane though, but rather a giant cargo liner of some sort – the area where I wake up looks like a giant ummm… gym converted into a triage unit? Triage unit because all the other “passengers” are on medical bed type deals with [...]

I am continually amused by the interaction between the English verb know and subjective and objective truth. For instance, consider what you knew at 10, 16, 20 about life, purpose, love – anything nonfactual (although comparing factual knowledge can be fun too!). Compare that to what you know now. Cheesy, I know – but I’ve [...]

So. We came across some Heritage Dr. Pepper in the store the other day and, being fans of Dr. Pepper – except for the whole corn syrup thing – picked up a bottle each. It certainly tasted great. I had some of mine for lunch, and most for dinner, Jen the reverse. The fun started [...]

Go go oxford comma! Ahem. Anyway. So! I’ve always been somewhat of an evangelist – but not in the religious sense (although I did go through a phase that could be said to approximate that O.o). I’ve always been maybe a little too motivated (at least internally) about sharing the music & books that I [...]

So… we’ve been, collectively, sick for over a week now. The boys first got whatever it is sometime around last weekend – brought home from daycare no doubt. Then I got it Tuesday, and Jen the day after or so. I missed two days of work and Jen missed one. And we’re still feeling like [...]
