This week has been quite the week! We have been organizing and getting ready for our annual trip to warmer places. We are leaving tomorrow and will be back in a week and a half. Most of the trip will be spent with my parents so it'll be fairly relaxed and I'll be visiting the computer on our down time. Perhaps I'll even make a few posts ( Read more... )

I have short, bullet point review of the latest episode of Doctor Who!

To everyone who celebrates, I hope you are having a lovely Easter! Or, if not, at least enjoying half price candy day. We have egg hunted (plastic eggs with candy hidden in dog safe and cat safe places *g*), eaten chocolate, taken a walk, and I've been doing some cooking. All in all a good day so far ( Read more... )

I'm still processing this week's Elementary and Person of Interest (both AWESOME!) but I hope to post about them soon. :)

Meanwhile, I have another day of

*pokes lj* I guess it's up again? Emergency maintenance sounds like someone made a system change and screwed up. I did have a fandom squee post for yesterday but I wanted to wait until it would crosspost so you get it now! :) And then I'll post today's a little later ( Read more... )

Hey, I watched the latest Doctor Who this past evening! Hmmmm. On one hand it made absolutely no sense and one the other hand it really worked. Moffat managed to write an episode of Doctor Who which worked for me on an emotional level. It's been a while. Also, ( Read more... )

Today's xkcd is made of awesome! I love it! It must have taken him forever to draw it. But if you don't want to take forever to look at it all (or don't have forever), how about a scrollable, scalable version? Which is also excellent for picking up things you'd miss in the click and drag version ( Read more... )

So...ah...Doctor Who. Hmmm. Not a favorite. It was better than The Curse of the Black Spot? And now I feel bad since that is some seriously faint praise. How about a few things I did like about the episode?

• Expect a cooking post very soon! I have three recipes with pictures to share: a Sweet Corn Cake with Blueberry-Corn Compote which was quite a lovely way to use some fresh corn, a Meyer Lemon Pie which I made because I found Meyer lemons in the store and I wanted to try them out, and a Eggplant Parmesan which is clearly and without bias the BEST ( Read more... )

So I did go to my doctor on Tuesday and the diagnosis is TENDONITIS. (I have to give a big thumbs up to my doctor's office - I got an appointment the day I called; they then saw me, sent me to another facility for x-rays, and got me prescriptions all with 40 minutes.) I'm very happy that it's inflammation and overuse and not that I tore something ( Read more... )
