Well, OK, not life in general, but... I currently have two ear infections that are making life not-so-pleasant. For one thing, I cannot hear out of pretty much both ears, although one is a little better than the other. What I can hear...echoes weirdly. It doesn't really hurt, but there is a lot of pressure, especially in my right ear. There is ( Read more... )

Is it me, or do kids in school get more stupid projects to do now than they used to? I mean, this kid's in high school, and it seems like every week he has some stupid project to do for some class or another. I remember doing stuff like that when I was in like 6th grade, but high school? Nah. Weird ( Read more... )

The Weather Channel. It lies. Through its teeth. Foul, stinky lies.

Why? Well, they said we were going to get some snow this weekend. They didn't make a big deal out of the deal. Said we might get 10 inches, which for here isn't that big of a whoopdedoo. Guess how much snow we got?

Oh, only about three feet. That's a meter for you non-US folks. ( Read more... )

Brrrrrrrrr.... It is f-f-f-f-f-frigid in my office today. :p I guess they didn't think anyone would be working today or something, so they've got the heat turned way down. The thermostat thingy in the hall says it 54 degrees. Brrrrrrr.... The guy in the office next door is sitting in there with his parka and ski hat on, and I'm in here in my jacket ( Read more... )

It's icky here. It rain-snowed overnight. But now it's just raining. A nice cold rain. My car says that it's 35 degrees out. (For you Celsius folk, that's a smidge above 0.) And it's raining and it's that cold dampness that just seeps into your bones and makes you miserable. My arthritic hip and knee are KILLING me today. It feels like I am back ( Read more... )

Concert tonight. Went well enough, I suppose, although in my opinion no orchestra should have to play (nor should an audience have to sit through) two entire masses in one concert. Especially when one of them was written by an 18-year-old Puccini who was apparently, at the time, a sadist. One movement of this sucker, the Gloria, is 17 minutes long ( Read more... )

So, another Columbus Day is upon us. And yet, I have to work. And not only do I have to work, but I have to spend my workday doing some horrendously boring and brain-draining accounting. I started it on Friday, thinking that I'd get it done...but it's more complex than I thought. Ugh. The universe is not fair ( Read more... )

So I spent my lunch-eating time surfing around DeviantArt, finding people to stalk and tagging some favorites. Swear, I had no idea that PJ was so popular. I mean, I knew they were popular, but...wow. Happy, though ( Read more... )

I dunno...I've been thinking about the issue a lot this last week or so and...I just feel like I don't really belong in Transformers fandom anymore. I seem to see things totally differently than everyone else seems to see them these days, which is likely my own fault because I've made it all too much my own, in a sense. The end result is that there ( Read more... )
