Dentist Adventures
Here is how my day has been so far:
I had an appointment for a filling in the lower right of my mouth. Things were going fine, and they gave me the freezing and started drilling. Then my jaw got dislocated and stuck open like it sometimes does while at the dentist. Usually, I just have to relax the muscles and it’ll slip back into place, but ( Read more... ) -
Kobo Cover!
I finally made a cover for my Kobo Vox! I totally stole the idea from Gord, who wondered why I hadn’t done one myself yet, since I was complaining about not having a cover yet.
Well, I had to fix that.
I went to the library, but they didn’t have anything suitable for sale, so I ended up at a thrift store, where I snagged a copy of A Little ( Read more... ) -

Operation: Eat Real Food
Food keeps making me sick.
Let me rephrase. What I eat keeps making me sick.
The difference is, of course, that a lot of what I normally eat isn’t really food. I eat a lot of refined things. I eat a lot of processed things. I eat a lot of frozen, preserved, heat-n-eat things.
And then I wonder why I have so many gut/digestion related issues, ( Read more... )
