I know I haven't posted since, oh, August, but this post is going to involve a reiteration of that one: if you're still at all interested in what I'm up to, I've moved over to Tumblr (at alketaire.tumblr.com and alkesims.tumblr.com, of course) and do almost all of my blogging over yonder ( Read more... )

Uh... don't know if anybody still reads this but, well... I've moved over to Tumblr pretty much entirely. I still post my Sims stuff over at alkesims, but I've started also posting it on my Simblr of the same name, and most of my personal blogging goes on alketaire.tumblr.com.

I took a nice 8km bike ride to stave off this boredom, and, of course, on returning, realized I had brought a massive asthma attack upon myself ( Read more... )

So close. SO CLOSE. My thesis is submitted, I'm making good progress on my term paper, I basically just have to wave my hand over my screen and I'll have a poster and presentation for my thesis, my other class is going pretty well and the end of the year-long horror is nigh... but my brain is doing this ( Read more... )

So Chris was having some phone issues on Tuesday. He has two cell phones and the store has a land line ( Read more... )

Tonight was a pretty decent night at work, provided you omit the BP-raising nervousness inherent in dealing with ( this guy. (Subsequent post is long as a GOP debate) )
