I haven’t been around much these past couple of days I’m afraid. And as you might have guessed, I’ve long since given up on the Blog365 challenge. Yes yes, I know, I came so far. But meh, I don’t really have the inspiration or drive anymore to complete the challenge. That’s not to say I […]

Ugh, I swear, I think I should advise folks to take out a life insurance policy on me. I’m doing such stupid things, someone might as well cash in on them. First I somehow pissed off Denali when I shaved her fur this morning/afternoon. Then after all of that I had the gall to give […]

As a kid, I’m not really sure why, I’ve always wanted one of those cigarette extenders. To me they just looked cool. I always wanted to use one and wave it around in the air like one of the 1960’s actresses.
Of course, when I grew up I couldn’t really see the point in shelling out […]

I recently reordered some more business magnets for my mother, as the first ones were a total hit, and while browsing around Vista Print I came upon a rather interesting discovery. They make car magnets too. Am I the only one who never noticed this? Probably the reason this made such a lasting impression […]

Now that I’m no longer spending every hour of the day at the hospital I’ve found myself scurrying around trying to play catch up and get everything done that was neglected over the past few days. I managed to snag some time occasionally to post or check email, but not much else. Now I’m sitting […]

You know, it really is such a shame that I live out here in the desert. Certainly I prefer the warm weather and the dry heat versus the humidity-drenched heat that you find elsewhere, but when it comes to green, the desert is [very obviously] lacking.
Spread out on two hundred fifty-two acres of land […]

Because we’re close to the border, a lot of cellular providers and telephone companies provide plans that offer “affordable” rates for calls to Mexico. Are they really that affordable though? Judging by the rate one of my mom’s clients sells international phone cards, specifically those to Mexico, I’d have to say no. Frankly it amazes […]

Yeah, it happened, it’s over with, but people are still yapping about it.

The survey above asks my opinions on the strike and how much it affected me. You can click it to see my answers, no spam, popups or anything btw.
I was actually one of the few people in the US who didn’t catch […]

Well, this is certainly odd for me, isn’t it? It’s this late in the day and aside from a few seconds on Twitter no one has really seen me around.
Have I been busy? No, just bored to tears.
Yesterday I remarked on how lousy the weather had been all day. Today, the winds were a bit […]

One of my grandfather’s friends got a new watch for his birthday. Apparently it has a ton of doodads and is just plain awesome.
I have a sneaking suspicion that the new owner doesn’t even know what half of the features are, let alone how to use them. I saw them discussing the watch and when […]

Well I just got back from Big O Tires a little while ago. I had hoped that they would be able to fix my tire, but after taking a good look at it today I knew it would be a no go and I was right. The damage done to the tire from the blowout […]
