Hypothermia?
I have a cold. It's not a deadly cold, but I'm definitely sick and have a stuffy head. For the past 2-3 days I've kept thinking that I was maybe running a fever, but whenever I've taken my temperature it's been pretty low (under 97 degrees). Then yesterday at work it was 95.7! That seemed a little ridiculous to me, but I was still upright and ( Read more... ) -
Lack of attention span!
I seem to have developed a bad case of the mental fidgets. I'm currently reading . . . six books? And I'll be starting a seventh. Yet I must consume! I must read more! -
Has anyone else heard of this comic?
Someone showed me this webcomic that I had never heard of, and I was shocked by how much I liked it! It seemed like the sort of thing that many of you folks might enjoy as well, so I thought I'd post it:

Today's Jamie looks less like a doofus
Finally, after three weeks of having a chipped front tooth, I was able to see the dentist this morning! Now I can stop introducing myself by saying, "Hi! I'm Jamie, and yes, I do have dental insurance. Really." It is very pleasant having all of my teeth in the correct shape ( Read more... ) -
Oh so smart
So I was helping serve the coffee and communion again at church this week, and this time when I spilled hot water everywhere my brain went, "Oh no! Boiling hot water is spewing out of the tap, YOU SHOULD PUT YOUR HAND UNDER IT TO STOP IT." Because I'm a quick thinker like that! But thankfully my hand was quick to say, "Hell no that hurts," so I ( Read more... ) -
Extended Christmas
So Christmas went well, and thanks to Jeremy's rescue I didn't get snowed in at my dad's. Also, the step-families weren't as weird as I thought they would be (though they were still weird ( Read more... ) -
At least it stopped snowing
I just got back from digging a path out of our condo complex. Literally, digging. Abi, Jeremy, her dad and I plus one neighbor spent half an hour digging two tire tracks through the part where our cars were getting stuck. We were breaking through 2-3 inches of ice for most of it, plus scooping out the several inches of slush on top. It was fun to ( Read more... ) -
Snowboots are for pansies
I thought work was going to be cancelled today, but it wasn't. Jill said I could stay home, but I knew she needed the help, but my car was all snowed in, but I wanted to go, so I ended up walking to work. Two and a half miles on unplowed sidewalks! I trudged through four inches of snow for most of the way, with the occasional smoosh into an ( Read more... ) -
