7 minutes on a Saturday

Overall, this weekend was pretty relaxing and lazy. I took a walk, did some laundry, a bit of cleaning and baking, watched some movies, and went to church. I did one thing that, as one of my friends pointed out, was out of character for me, on Saturday night I went to a speed dating [...]

Easter Weekend with friends and family

I was going to hold off on this post until I had the photos ready to accompany it,but my computer still isn’t completely reassembled/reorganized and fun with iPhoto will have to wait a few more days. Friday At 4:30pm, I dashed home to shed my workday attire and headed over to Bob’s Your Uncle (eastside) [...]

Not so much fun with Spring storms

Let’s see, today it was 87 degrees in mid-April and the humidity was rather high. What does that spell? An evening in the basement with your roommate, her friend from out of town, and her sister, brother-in-law, and their four month old daughter. I love Iowans. We’re eating ice cream watching tv, we’re calm. I’ve [...]

The vacuum works fine

For the last week or so my powerbook has been getting more and more flaky with regard to keeping an internet connection. All the local apps work fine, but if I try to do anything requiring making connections it is slooooooooooow. Yesterday I repaired permissions and that didn’t seem to help, so I took the [...]

Must See TV : Extreme Makeover: Home Edition in New Orleans

I intended to blog and tell all my readers to make sure to tune into ABC tonight at 7pm central/8pm eastern and why they should do that. But Lisa has already said what I was going to say, so in the interest of being lazy, I’m quoting her: Don’t forget everyone! Tonight is the airing [...]

Its Official : you can run a crap OS on a wonderful piece of computing hardware

Apple – Boot Camp I love the Apple snark on that page: Boot Camp will burn a CD of all the required drivers for Windows so you don’t have to scrounge around the Internet looking for them. EFI and BIOS Macs use an ultra-modern industry standard technology called EFI to handle booting. Sadly, Windows XP, [...]

May I be excused? My brain is full.

Its time for a bulleted list braindump post. I’m sure you’re all dizzy with anticipation. For several weeks following my trip to Mardi Gras I was feeling just run down and listless. The first few days or so, I thought I was just post-trip tired. Then the next couple of weeks I just thought I [...]

Due to high levels of hilarity, discretion while reading at work is advised.

TeeVee.org’s annual April Fool’s joke. A take-off on wikipedia: Entry on Fox on TeeVeePedia. The Torment division also specifically allows once-beloved shows to linger far past their natural lives, gradually transforming into horrific, shambling zombies that roam the airwaves in an endless search for fresh viewers. The Simpsons and The X-Files are only two cases [...]
