Digitally speaking, and not all that far. I have finally gotten off my duff, made a journal at Dreamwidth, and now finally got around to mentioning that fact here. This is not to say that I'll post any more often there than I have here, but you never know. Stranger things have happened. On Netflix, no less ( Read more... )

Lots of thinky thoughts about Season 2 Daredevil, some related to my little jaunt to NYC last August http://gonzai55.livejournal.com/#post-gonzai55-500420, some spoilery, some not, but to be safe, putting everything behind the cut.

[Spoiler (click to open)]1 - Kudos to the Daredevil makeup crew for remembering all of Matt's injuries from last season. Good to see a show ( Read more... )

The suckage of 2016 has continued, with my foot still hurting, job insanity, weather, etc. Last week a couple not so bad things happened - won $40 in the lotter, won the first two rounds of playoffs in trivia (although reverted to mediocrity in the finals), and my job finally became permanent as of Friday. On the other hand, I'm starting from ( Read more... )

A change in year is not helping things at all. This has been one of the worst weeks ever ( Read more... )

2015 has pretty much sucked for me, start to finish, and it's finishing with a kick. I'm still not a permanent employee. My mother doesn't know who I am any more. My new health insurance (through ACA) was cancelled by the insurer because 'I didn't pay the premium before December 1'; they conveniently left out the part where they didn't process my ( Read more... )

I am very, very thankful to have had Mosely in my life this year. And I'm going to share him - he's now a certified therapy dog :)  (Mom's nursing home was bummed yesterday because I didn't bring Mose with me, heh.)

Another year, another Euroquest on the books. It's the only gaming tournament I participate in, so I was there for pretty much the duration & participated in as many tournaments as I could. Skipped the wild card this time, a whopping two Can't Stop games both of which were horrid, & only a few 'Play to Win' games, I played but didn't win. Also ( Read more... )

My string of minor successes last week (finished watching Charlie Cox's entire filmography, trivia team won both the final game of the session and the entire session, had two promising possible jobs on Friday) has come to a crashing halt, it would seem. I tried to play trivia last night, an all Game of Thrones night for extra seeding points, but ( Read more... )

I was chatting with my former supervisor Monday, she's found a job and she suggested I try the employment agency she signed up with. So I did. Now, on Friday, they have a job they want me to start on Monday (!) Except at the same time, the car dealership 500 feet from my house also called me back, interested in having me there. That one is part- ( Read more... )

I thought this afternoon's errands/shopping trip would take several hours. It took 90 minutes, if that ( Read more... )
