Color-Coded for Maximum Confusion!

Actually the goal is not confusion! I like my flight manual colorful, is all. And it’s not really color-coded, just…colorful. (Pay no attention to the super-huge discs. That’s just me being a doofus. On realizing that my flight manual was close to outgrowing the 3/4-inch size my notebook came with, I decided i should just […]

Progress (and Lack Thereof) on Various Fronts

Progress (and Lack Thereof) on Various Fronts

Remember when I walked to Rivendell? Well, Elrond was lovely, and there were lots of VERY friendly elves and it was great and all, so now I’m heading for Lothlórien to compare…friendliness, yes. I’m currently at 300 miles out of Rivendell, coming back down Caradhras with the Fellowship after the snowstorm. Aragorn is clearly into Frodo, but

A friend told me I can expect to have the cough for six to eight weeks. I’ve already had it too damned long!) Still no car. No frakkin’ money

Trying to be Good

Okay, this is not easy.  But I’m working on it.  I ate a sensible breakfast instead of my usual sugary diet shake (does that make sense to anyone?  Can’t believe I never noticed before!)  For lunch I left my desk (yes, the world did grind to a halt) and had a lovely bowl of Healthy
