Wow...  I haven't posted here in dog's years; must amend that.  You WOULD know it'd be a meme by copperbadge that'd get me to do so again.  **amused**  So here we go:

Found this and thought I'd give it a try; I knew what my moon was (waxing gibbous) and was curious if they'd get it right.  They did; the 'what it says' bit is interesting-- makes me out to be something of an engineer. Heh; I almost went into architecture, so... **amused**

 Happy 2011, everyone!  May the coming year be fruitful, safe, and as sane as your particular desire would have it.  **grin**  Or as insane, for that matter.

Last leg of the meme tonight, and... hmm.  I'm in something of a quandary.

ay One: Ten things you want to say to ten different people right now.
Day Two: Nine things about yourself.

 G'morning, and happy New Year's Eve to all and sundry!

Sat up too late last night, courtesy of a pot of rather strong Jasmine Pearls tea (white tea rolled into little balls containing jasmine flowers) in the new kettle I got for Christmas.  It's a pretty thing, cast iron patterned with bamboo, very squat and broad; good thing the iron's very pure ( Read more... )

 Missed a day on this yesterday due to being sick as a freakin' dog; meh.  We Are Not At Home To Mister Influenza.  -__-  Actually, if you want to get technical about it, I *am* at home at the moment; I put in a couple of hours of work this morning and then drove home through cold, cold sleet. You know what I never noticed before?  Sleet makes ( Read more... )

 I... am one siiiiick Ysabet. I believe I have the flu.  Went to work, came home as quick as I could manage, took Theraflu and slept away the day; now I'm sitting up waiting for the next dose of Theraflu (which I should've taken a while ago, only I fell asleep instead) to take effect and I might as well get this done while I'm still vaguely ( Read more... )

I AM 50% THROUGH THIS THING!  GO ME!

And I'm back at work today, and I just had my annual evaluation (which went well; no mention of a raise, but we shall see.)  This place is so quiet today-- about half my workplace is unpopulated, people took the week off.  Well, I don't blame them, I'd love to be home right now too.  Oh well....

ANYWAY. Moving ( Read more... )

Hello, everyone; hope y'all had a lovely Christmas/day off/Festivus/whatever. Mine was very nice indeed-- good food, good friends and excellent loot; I got a cashmere sweater and two pairs of cashmere socks (soooooo soft!), the world's most beautiful needle-felted ferret (will post pics tomorrow), some truly lovely jewelry, tea, a new teapot and ( Read more... )

I am determined to keep this thing going, dammit, and here I sit at ten minutes to midnight on Christmas Eve typing today's list.  Bah humbug!

Day One: Ten things you want to say to ten different people right now.
Day Two: Nine things about yourself.
Day Three: Eight ways to win your heart.
Day Four: Seven things that cross your mind a lot.
Day Five: ( Read more... )
