That which taketh away, giveth.
It must be a February thing; I just seem to ignore blogs in February. Life got busy again this time around, but I do miss keeping the e-diary. Hi to those it amuses ( Read more... ) -
The waiting is the hardest part
So my sister, bought me Sea Monkeys for Christmas, sort of a gag gift, but sort of not, as I kept Sea Monkeys for an entire year in high school, when they were bought for me as 100% a gag gift. I made weekly reports about my Sea Monkeys to John, who by the end of the year was thoroughly sick of hearing about them ( Read more... ) -
My gums are mighty ticked
A few hours after visiting the dentist, I'm finally brave enough to attempt eating - nothing al dente however - leftover squash/carrot/ginger soup (which came out lousy on account of the squash being meh) and tortilla chips soaked into it ( Read more... ) -

More icon fun? Mais oui!

Gimping?) netted me a fun cartoon tapeworm from Rocko's Modern Life. Nicest of all, it's an interlaced .GIF, and ( Read more... ) -

Odd holiday wildlife
Stage 2 of the Holiday Travelganza goes well. I returned from Virginia Beach, having seen 3 of my Fraternity Brothers, Rob's wife Leigh-Anne, and their son Joey. All were doing well, and if not for them having obligations, we could have hung out more. I did get a chance to play Starship of Catan with Brian, and I enjoyed it -- it's a lot like ( Read more... )
