The nasty weather we’ve been having may have passed now, but it left something behind for us to remember it by sadly. The phone lines at my great-grandmother’s house were damaged as a result of the weather. Specifically, there’s something wrong with the lines and connection outside of the house, so the phone company has [...]

Well, we’re still in our “Monsoon Season” here and as a result the humidity has remained a constant as well as the random showers. I swear, it is so weird to hear the meteorologists on the news call this a “monsoon season”. It just sounds like an oxymoron given our location. To the point, I [...]

If we don’t get anymore rain for an entire year I think it’ll be too soon. Lots of flooded out streets in the area, not to mention phone and electrical lines have been totally trashed due to the storms. In fact, I’ve spent the majority of today without electricity, and a good part of last [...]

I feel like I’m living in the tropics. No seriously, I do. It started raining early this morning (around 7am) and it hasn’t stopped yet. The sidewalk is actually flooded, water came into the house a bit, and the grass looks more like a bog or swamp than a lawn. The worst part is, it [...]

I’m really beginning to wonder what happened. I used to, sometimes, change the desktop of my computer every some odd amount of months. But really, once I found a desktop I liked you could expect it to stay there for a good long time. In a sense, that’s still true. The home computer’s desktop rarely [...]

I’ve completely and utterly destroyed my image of being a cold-hearted bitch today. Strangely enough, I don’t really mind. I even allowed myself to get covered in mud, sweat, and drool. Not to mention, at the end of it, I smelled like a wet dog. You see, I was just fixing to go take a [...]

Sometimes it seems like Isis gets the most attention on this blog, as she’s the one who stays still long enough for my camera to snap a picture of her. Denali is always on the go and rarely just taking it easy. Which, when you think about it, is a relief really, because it means [...]

Hehe, Isis doesn’t need the kitty version of Lipovox! Isis knows that the best way to keep her kitty-figure lean and trim is to spice up her diet with some greens. And considering how much rain we’ve been getting, you can bet the lawn outside is indeed very green and very fresh. In fact, yesterday [...]

Happy Thursday folks! Ah yes, the week is almost over. This week’s Booking Through Thursday question asks: Do you buy books while on vacation/holiday? Do you have favorite bookstores that you only get to visit while away on a trip? What/Where are they? I usually end up taking a book with me on vacation, usually [...]

It’s so weird having a properly working A/C in my car this year. It seems like every summer since I first bought Pyro I’ve put off getting it summerized, or caved in and did it at the last minute. Needless to say, the summer when I was working as a security guard was major hell. [...]
