Well, as you can tell, I've been doing a lot of reading lately -- stuff with lots of neat new words :) On Tuesday I went to a barbecue held by the local pagan group, with whom I have just started getting involved. They're a very insular group, but I think I'll fit in pretty well. I exchanged numbers with two of them and we've promised to get ( Read more... )

I just finished putting away the last of the books from the move. Yes I know it's been almost 7 months. The problem was the non-fiction, see. I have it organized by Library of Congress call number, and I hadn't looked up the call numbers for a bunch of books that didn't have them printed in the front ( Read more... )

So the power went out last night around 6pm. We were having a thunderstorm, although it wasn't even a particularly bad one, so I'm not sure exactly what happened. It was apparently only the apartment complex and the adjacent streetlights that were affected -- even just one street over they had power ( Read more... )

Walmart's "new and improved" put-it-together-yourself bookcase is anything but. It's supposedly easier because it comes with some of the pieces already put together, but I found that it just made adding the rest that much more awkward. I spent twice as long trying to get that thing put together than I did last time I got one of the old ones, and ( Read more... )
