More Things I Like
I like lists. However, I don't like the kinds of things where people define who they are primarily by what they don't like; thus, to give you more insight (uh, that's questionable) into me, you get specifically some of m… -
geez, this entry is so typical - but the song makes it worth it, I promise!
As soon as I got home from work, where I was sluggish all day, and my body just couldn't seem to cool off, it shut itself down... that nap was easily an hour and a half long. I gave blood yesterday, and this time it see… -
"I'm just a girl who can't say no"
Ah, yes, this is my turn at those confessions, because Blue__Summer did this, and I'm very susceptible to guilt, it seems, even if it's just the "well, we confessed, so you should" thing. Okay, that's not true; I just wa… -

My computer is back in business again...
...which means I finally got to update the website. Initially tried to avoid black and white, but it looks better. Yay! I had a good Christmas with my family. Little more need be said than that. This entry is particularl… -
Query:
I appear to be the only one among my friends to have taken regular breaks from family festivities to check my e-mail or drop a line or two on a blog. (This probably results partially from my failure to bring a guitar o… -
Meleagris and family -- it's not genius, but it'll have to do.
This is the holiday -- the fun, crazy, oppressive, heavy-handed interaction with family. Time for flashing a winning smile and laughing off slighting comments. The time when good news of a friend's book deal veers too qu…
