Goodbye, LJ
The day has come. I'm moving on. LJ is dying a slow, painful, horribly drawn-out death. I browsed an add_me community briefly (which kavieshana correctly said was the "last stop before leaving LJ"), and it was nothing but self-absorbed 20-somethings and anime fangirls. Thoroughly depressing. I'm seeking greener pastures, in the form of WordPress. I'll ( Read more... ) -
Yes, I'm still on here
I've had to cut the b-ball down to once a week or less; somewhere along the line, someone replaced my knees with those of a 40-year-old, and I don't care for it.

Election 2012
Unsurprisingly, my brother-in-law is a bit of a grumpus this morning. He posted this on Facebook: "The vitriolic, caustic, nasty, gloating this morning is precisely what I expected from the left. It's the new 'tolerant' normal. Hate is great ( Read more... ) -

I'm afraid this post may destroy a commonly held belief about me, namely that I'm tough and don't take crap from people. But so be it ( Read more... ) -
