We begin the New Year quite ill. Wiccy still has it worse than me, but I feel rather like shit. Not sure what, if anything, this portends for the year ahead. I'm hoping it is not a harbinger of things to come ( Read more... )

A change in plans for our New Year's Eve. Wiccy's sick, and I'm a bit under the weather. So, we're not going to be spending the evening gaming with the McEinhorns. Wiccy finished her rewatch of The Golden Girls and has apparently started in on Who's The Boss. I'm out in the living room, finally finished The Day of the Jackal (was surprised by the ( Read more... )

We made it to the Cincinnati Zoo on Saturday. It was a mostly overcast, but unseasonably warm day. And the forecast rain held off until long after we left. It had been five years, almost to the day, since our last trip there. It's a really nice zoo. As usual, we didn't quite get to everything, even with the extended hours for their holiday lights.

We made it to Cincy last night, and hoo-boy did I have some really weird dreams last night. Not sure what caused them, but I can still remember bits of them and that's rare these days ( Read more... )

So, after all the football had been watched and while Wiccy was still at work (which was for quite a while, especially for a holiday), I did get around to watching this year's Doctor Who Christmas episode ( Read more... )

Well, that holiday arrived. As usual, nothing special going on. Wiccy went in to work briefly this morning but will be returning later this afternoon. I'll use that opportunity to watch this year's Doctor Who Christmas special, as Wiccy hasn't caught up with the show yet ( Read more... )

There is a specific Taco Bell commercial that is in steady rotation on the few places we watch things that have commercials. Every time that it comes on, I get a strong urge to listen to 90s music. Probably not what they're trying for there, but that's the result with me. Not that it's difficult to make me want to listen to 90s music. I have a ( Read more... )

A week ago at this time, we were well into our GalaxyCon weekend. It took me a while to get back here to talk about it, but here I am ( Read more... )

I have a jumbled-up bunch of thoughts bouncing around inside my noggin, so I think I'm just going to ramble them out into the world and hopefully clear my head for a spell ( Read more... )

Why is it that long weekends go by in the blink of an eye, but short weeks last forever? This four-day weekend is nearly at an end. As I said in my previous entry, I didn't do much of anything on Thanksgiving. On Black Friday, I headed out to Kohl's to return something I'd ordered on Amazon for Wiccy that ended up not fitting. Then I went downtown ( Read more... )
