Just in case my sister needs ideas for next Christmas: she’s one of those people that starts shopping in January. I’ll have to decline the kind offer from the same site for their Bobblehead Jesus page linked to the Holy Moly site, though. I don’t think Father Ted would go for it. Happy Blogoversary To Me (and Rance) I got a couple of emails this week reminding me that Rance first started blogging about this time last year. As it happens, so did I, about 2 weeks earlier. And what with the holidays and shopping and screwing around last week…

It's that most wonderful time of the year, the season of Xcess! And it's not quite over, as after a successful morning's buffet breakfast and an afternoon of lying around contentedly with full tummies, we headed to the home of nearby friends for a Solstice party of eating, geeking out, and comparing holiday horror stories. It was a really lovely meal, with an actual Christmas goose, served with "goose juice" (Cumberland sauce) instead of gravy and lots of delicious side dishes.

Ow. For some reason my neck really hurts today. Probably too much time spent unched over, reading webpages. Also, it starts hurting if I try to use my cell phone for a lot of texting, wich is not good because it locked up and had to be swapped out for a new one.

Should have booked the accomodations back in February when I yapped about…

One of the “joys” of winter is that not only is it bleak and cold, it’s also dark. So today, 3 whole weeks until the longest night/shortest day of the year, it’s already fully dark by about 420pm. It didn’t help any that it actually was very gloomy and overcast at 3pm today. My favorite seasons, in order, are: Fall Spring Summer Winter Winter moves up in the rankings when it’s pretty and fun, such as during or just after a good snowstorm (so long as I’m somewhere warm and dry, rather than stranded somewhere). It moves down when it’s…

David’s been talking about doing something with geocaching for a while. Turns out there’s a very active, very local community of cachers. Hmm. Looks like fun.

my husband David was wondering at the bandwidth usage around here. I took a look at my stats page (he’s the text-based log guy, I’m the GUI-fied stats girl) and did a little Googling around: Lost in Technophilia : Bye bye news.allresearch.com You Are So Banned!
