Last post of 2007

New Year’s Eve and I’m at work wondering why the heck I didn’t ask for tonight off. Stupid. Since no one else in the entire freaking world is at work right now, it’s quiet. Leaves me time to post pointless junk on this here blog. The wonderful thing about blogging is [...]

2007 in 39 questions

So I did one of these questionnaires last year, but I don’t think I originally posted it here. But I dug it out of the depths of my computer and reposted it. Before I post this year’s version, some things I would like to point out about last year’s version:
Question #6: Got the [...]

Saba Sequel: Part III

So it has occurred to me that I never finished my series of posts about our trip to Saba. I believe I left off at the part where I was going to show you my most favorite picture from the trip. But first, you need the backstory.
(By the way, please check this out. [...]

Tooth and consequences

(Ha, sorry about the punny title, but I couldn’t resist.)
We seem to have averted the Ich crisis for now. After the funky blue tank treatment, the surviving members of the tank seem happy and healthy. Also–sorry it took me awhile to approve your comment, Megan. I suck at checking my moderation queue.
Hey, [...]

Ich-y

Curses! It’s finally happened–the dreaded ich parasite has invaded my aquarium. I suppose this makes me an official aquarist now because everyone who’s ever had a freshwater aquarium gets ich at some point or another. And since it’ll kill your fish in no time, it is the bane of every aquarist’s existence.
Since [...]

The Pants

Here they are, my most recent completed knitting project: little devil pants for my nephews.
I started them almost a year ago. No, it didn’t take me a full year to complete them. I started them, put them down for a few months, picked them up again, unraveled them, started them again, put [...]

Post-Thanksgiving ruminations

A late happy Thanksgiving to you all. My Thanksgiving consisted of a whirlwind tour of middle Tennessee and North Augusta. Highlights from the trip include:

Roasting marshmallows at the Christmas tree farm in South Carolina. Josh has already been kind enough to broadcast my love for roasted marshmallows. Thanks, dear, for posting [...]

God’s greatest gift to mankind: CAKE.

We had our quell-the-uprising meeting today at work. I have to say I was disappointed at the level of drama (too low, in my opinion. I wanted fireworks!). I was also disappointed at the lack of free food (we at least had bagels the last time we had a meeting). During [...]

Mush for brains

Sorry, can’t talk now. Brain is completely fried, thanks to the launch of new software and the firing of a coworker that has left us horribly, horribly understaffed. I have a mission for you: post a link to something that will make me laugh. PLEASE, FOR THE LOVE OF MUFFINS, MAKE ME LAUGH. Categories of [...]

Mmm…barium

Do you know what I just ate for dinner? A Lean Cuisine frozen dinner. Would you like to know why this is remarkable? It’s the first solid food I’ve had since Monday morning.
I got sick on Monday morning on our way home from Birmingham. We’re talking sharp pain in my stomach [...]
