The Perils of Pneumonia

According to the x-ray they took today, I have a “shadowy abnormality” in my lungs that looks like pneumonia (or my lungs are haunted). So, it’s more steroids, antibiotics and rest. Rest includes bad movies, television, cup-o-noodle and split pea soup (my favorite “I’m sick” meal). My ribs are a mess, as is my right […]

K and J

Kevin is at the doctor’s right now. Hopefully he can get some better medicine. I wouldn’t be surprised if the doctor said he has pneumonia. I don’t know how pneumonia is different from bronchitis but I do know that Kevin has been really sick for a long time. Poor Kevin.\ Apparently, I am “very Jen.” […]

Highlights in an Otherwise Disappointing Day

My Big Fat Swedish Day

Not only did Jen and I go to Ikea today and fill up the van with build-it-yourself boxed Swedish furniture, but after we got back and unloaded the van, I went and bought a very swanky 2002 Volvo S80. I sent a picture to Flickr, but it hasn’t shown up yet… (so I just uploaded […]

Up Early With Photo Booth

Keeping Track of the Big Idea

I was playing around with my Dreamhost control panel recently and noticed that there was a new one-click install for activeCollab. Being the curious sort that I am, I figured, “I’ve got unlimited domains, and practically unlimited disk space, what’s one more?” and installed it. It’s great. It’s still pre-1.0, but there are enough features, […]

The boys

Random stories:\ I got tired and dizzy playing ring-around-the-rosie with Brian, so I transitioned us into a new game: I would dance in one spot while he ran around me. This morphed into us just dancing. At one point, I got really into the music and started getting crazy. I ran my fingers through my […]
