Reading…\ This review may be a little weird. I read it solely while either getting heat or ice at physical therapy. I loved it. It’s ridiculous, in the way the best Monty Python skits are ridiculous. It’s smart, well-written and extremely sly. The jokes are constant, and really really funny. If you think the following […]
I’ve never driven in a foreign country. When we drove around Ireland, I made Porter do all the driving. Now, I’m going to France for the Plenary, and I’m renting a car. The only thing that’s making me less jittery about doing so is having a friend who lives there and is feeding me driving […]
When Brian is told “no”, he throws his hands in the air, looks up toward heaven, slowly flops backwards, rolls halfway on one side, and then half on the other side. And then he is done. It is really funny. Except for the times when there is something behind him that he falls on. I […]
A couple updates from the weekend (and the end of last week) before I get back to work:\ I am now a member of the Loudoun County Democratic Committee. I joined officially last week. I’m still not sure what all that means other than attending committee meetings and brushing up on Robert’s Rules Of Order, […]
I went to see Dr. Ankle yesterday, and he says to me after playing with my foot, “Yep, everything’s still intact, that’s good.” Yeah, I made a face.\ I’m allowed to wear normal shoes for a grand total of 15-30 minutes a day and have four more weeks of physical therapy. I see Dr. Ankle […]
I got Taipei Monkey this week and really want the two Taipei Buddies sets. Who wants to trade? I’ve also got Oslo Finance and Shanghai Tech Vector. And if you’re not already signed up for free delivery from IconBuffet, you should be. It’s free!
\ Some days, it feels like I’m going through life under water.\ But in other news, I go to the doctor bright and early Monday morning and find out if I can finally wear a normal shoe on my right foot. It will have been over six months since I started wearing either the Velcro […]
Guys don’t do grief. We don’t handle empathy real well either. Guys are supposed to be “tough”, like ducks, and let all of our troubles (and everyone else’s) roll of our back with a shrug of our mighty shoulders.\ All this stupid manliness gets in the way of us connecting to those around us, those […]
Molly did it, so will I. Plus, I need a break from writing about CSS. Why am I writing about CSS? You will know soon enough, my children, soon enough.\ I’m a Mac person. I think everyone who knows me knows this by now. So, it’s not going to surprise anyone that this list is […]
Kevin is at work, therefore I must hate work.
