Doing Something For Others… a bit of a Rant

Friday, March 26th, 2010

I’m on facebook (who isn’t, really?). There’s a meme going around. For the first five people that sign up, you must create something handmade for them and send it by mail by the end of the year. Which has got me thinking. It seems that people only do things like this when there’s a meme. [...]

Guest: Abner Doon

Wednesday, March 24th, 2010

As I said before, I would be having guests appear on the blog. Anything and everything that falls under the creative category will be fitting.

Exercise

Thursday, March 4th, 2010

I went swimming last night. It was a big event. I hadn’t been swimming for over three months. I had laser eye surgery and had to wait the appropriate time to go swimming again. I was a bit nervous upon getting there. What if I splashed too much? What if I was too slow? What [...]

Backing It Up

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010

I came home from vacation Sunday, and yesterday was the day my computer went all wonky. Greg got fried. There was a really bad malware infestation yesterday so I had to wipe everything out. I did make sure to save my resume, my NaNo novel and Push the Limits. Everything else, as much as I [...]
