I guess that trying to post more regularly thing didn't work out, huh...

Anyway, I just booked a flight on Ryanair. And rented a car in the UK. Which of these is more likely to result in my untimely death? Hmm.

Well, that didn't last long, I guess. But it's fodder for a State of the Life post ( Read more... )

I'm clearly doing well at this posting every day thing. Just have to remember to do it, but that's the problem ( Read more... )

Two-fer for today, I guess, since I punted on yesterday. I stayed home sick from work yesterday with a headache, a sore throat, and a general feeling of ick.

Life with eight cats got more {busy,expensive,troublesome} when we discovered that one of them had diabetes early this month. In addition to twice-daily insulin shots (which are surprisingly easy with adult cats), we've decided to put them all on wet food with minimal amounts of carbohydrates, and so the food costs have skyrocketed. (We used to ( Read more... )
