Because *I* have:

quoting myself from the previous post: So yeah, it’s been a little bit crazy. Maybe it’ll let up soon, and maybe it won’t. We’ll see. From here, I can definitively say that so so, far, it hasn’t let up at all. In fact, the universe has decided that perhaps I didn’t have enough crap to […]

At least to me, it seems like I’m not posting as much lately. I suspect that if I go back and count things, I’m probably running at about the same pace; it just doesn’t feel like I’m putting in the time. Granted, there’s been a bit more of life out there to take up my […]

You know what, It’s been months since I’ve gotten lazy enough to throw up a collection of random musings and links to things I thought were interesting and/or amusing! Let’s do it! ♦ – The bike commute this week was pretty damned scary. My nerves are a bit frazzled after nearly getting hit four or […]

Well, I’m back from a spring break road trip. It was novel. I went to a rodeo, and saw guys ride bulls and stuff. It wasn’t my normal Saturday night out, but it was new and different, and something I’d never done before. It also seems as if I brought some flu-like symptoms back from […]

However, the universe conspired to put me in […]

3/22 – Updated with an example of how this might have gone. See below. I saw John Carter this evening. In glorious IMAX 3D. I spent eighteen dollars for a ticket, for that is the going rate in the Washington D.C. market. It was totally worth every penny. I had a blast with this flick […]

I’ve been sick. That’s pretty much it. I spent most of Friday and Saturday crashed on the couch watching old movies in between bouts of unconsciousness. I did get out a little bit despite the circumstances; I supervised an after-hours school field trip with the eldest to see children’s author Graham Salisbury speak at an […]

Ladies and Gentlemen, Republican presidential hopeful Rick Santorum, placing ideological purity over a well educated American population, speaking to a group of Tea Party supporters in Michigan this weekend: President Obama once said he wants everybody in America to go to college. What a snob…there are good decent men and women who go out and […]

Just something to think about – remember ten years ago when a computer not connected to broadband internet was a perfectly useful piece of equipment, and not a plastic and silicon doorstop? I’d written a bit more here, but I deleted it after I realized it sounded an awful lot like Abe Simpson yelling at […]
