I thought may be putting a book in a ziplock bag made me strange. Nope, not at all.
The Great Vacation Countdown Begins Again
I logged into WordPress for my usual stats check, and had a look at my site. I discovered my post title still had a the colon from the original title. I forgot to press the backspace key one more time, and had an awkward sentence later in the post. I blinked a couple of times … Continue reading The Great Vacation Countdown Begins Again
Rowdy Weather and Ruined Books
Tuesdays monsoon not only soaked my clothes, it soaked the book in my bag. Health at Every Size arrived barely a month ago, and I hoped to make it well-used by highlighting and post it flags. The cover has crinkled, some pages are still damp, and it would take a while to completely dry off the pages. … Continue reading Rowdy Weather and Ruined Books

I’m a What? Plus Other Adventures on the Blogging 201 Second-Go-Round
Like a mechanic under the hood of a car, I tinker with my blog. I signed up for Blogging 201(again) for some fine tuning. This time I feel more sure about the direction of this blog.

I only knew it as the one directed by the guy behind … Continue reading Midweek Geekiness: Killing Mr. Thornton, or Anticipating The Great Red Dragon On Hannibal
Music Monday: Turn, Turn, Turn (To Everything There is A Season)
The air still retained its heavy feeling, but the low-lying clouds blocked out the sun, trying to make up its mind about opening up its grey, bloated clouds for another thunderstorm. I went as part of a small group to an interment service for P who passed away six months ago. Her ashes would rest … Continue reading Music Monday: Turn, Turn, Turn (To Everything There is A Season)
Catch my Breath and Fill My Brain
The Web Development class finally had it coda in the form of my grade. I did well, better than expected, but willing to catch my breath for a little while. I had all this free time, but it came with an unexpected side effect. I didn't want to look at a computer after getting home … Continue reading Catch my Breath and Fill My Brain
Music Monday: The Music Of Michael Giacchino
Do you remember Claire giving birth while Boone died during Lost? How about George Kirk's last words on board the Kelvin after his wife gives birth to James T. Kirk in Star Trek? How about Carl and Elly's montage in Up? Chances are if you cried at these moment, or at its brink, Michael Giacchino provided … Continue reading Music Monday: The Music Of Michael Giacchino
