I’m not going crazy afterall

Finally figured out what happened with the misdirections to ’s house this weekend. She gave me her address, but mistyped a 9 instead of a 0. So when I copy-pasted that into Google, it redirected me to an entirely different address that was the highest house number on that street, which I then …keep reading

More reading for today

How can I keep my soul in me, so that
it doesn’t touch your soul? How can I raise
it high enough, past you, to other things?
I would like to shelter it, among remote
lost objects, in some dark and silent place
that doesn’t resonate when your depths resound.
Yet everything that touches us, me and you,
takes us together like …keep reading

Today’s Reading

I have great faith in all things not yet spoken.
I want my deepest pious feelings freed.
What no one yet has dared to risk and warrant
will be for me a challenge I must meet.

If this presumptuous seems, God, may I be forgiven.
For what I want to say to you is this:
my efforts shall be like a …keep reading

14,000 calories

Cinnabon may not solve all your problems, but it sure can help you forget them for awhile. ’s dad came over yesterday and they made Copycat Cinnabons. They are yum-my. I’m eating one for breakfast. And maybe one for lunch. Because I can. Hey, the pants I’m wearing today …keep reading

Five on Friday

  1. How often do you indulge in something sweet? Waaaaaay more often than perhaps I should. Like… hourly. Perhaps more often, depending on my mood. I’m having serious chocolate cravings this week.
  2. What is your favorite kind of sweet food/beverage? Chocolate. Or coffee. Or Coke. But sometimes I just crave …keep reading

Four For Friday

  1. Holiday: If you could celebrate any holiday twice in one year, which one would it be, and what time of the year would you celebrate it for a second time? I have two answers to this one. 1) Christmas is my all-time favorite holiday. I’d love another. Perhaps at the end …keep reading

Friday Fun

  1. Would you consider yourself to be flamboyant or fairly conservative? Conservative, no doubt.
  2. What is the most flamboyant thing about your appearance? My hair. It’s… uncontrollable. And that’s never going to change. Unless I shave my head completely. Which isn’t happening. Hopefully I can grow it down my back, and then …keep reading

Firefox Plugins

There’s a nice weather plugin for Firefox that I use, mostly because I rarely get outside when I’m at work and the windows that I can see are very far away and tinted. Here’s what the toolbar looks like today:

See the thermometer over there on the right? In flames?

Gee, that looks …keep reading

Today’s Reading

I frequently find myself looking for ways to entertain… myself… while at work. This leads to a lot of reading on the internet. One of my standbys is Christianity Today’s Single Minded column. There’s a new entry every couple of weeks, so occasionally I forget to check it for a while, and …keep reading

Take a deep breath and cough…

(No, the doctor’s never told me to do that.)

So I woke up this morning congested. Have I mentioned it’s the middle of July and it’s… 86* outside, and has been for the past week? Regardless, I am stuffy (notice I didn’t say sick), and it’s one more reason to be excited about going …keep reading

Dreams

I had a whole slew of dreams last night – I kept waking up and realizing that I’d dreamt about yet another weird subject. I dreamt about… , and Dawson’s Creek (I was actually in that world and one of the characters, though I couldn’t tell you who), and wasabi, and… other weird things. …keep reading

Spoiled

It’s 71* outside, and while I was out on my break, I was freezing. I’m wearing long pants and a short-sleeved shirt, and I was actually shaking. I think a week of 90+ temperatures has affected what my body’s able to tolerate.

OK, I’m going to the co-op tonight to get a few things …keep reading
