Our Old Monthiversary

Tuesday, October 27th, 2009

Internet, I have a question:
After you get married, does your dating anniversary fall TOTALLY by the wayside?  This morning I said “happy monthiversary!” to Will–mostly out of habit and he told me that we weren’t celebrating dating anniversaries or monthiversaries anymore, only our wedding anniversary.  And while I understand that–the wedding is most important, at [...]

Kreativ!

Monday, October 26th, 2009

It’s Monday so I got far too late a start on my work day (which might have something to do with my having spent over an hour trying to transfer my work e-mail from my laptop to the new computer).  But that is not the point of this post.  The point of this post is [...]

Long, Long Long*

Friday, October 23rd, 2009

It has been a long week.  Long. And…long.  And yet short. Isn’t that always the way?  When you’re in it, you think “how could it only be fifteen minutes? Haven’t I been sitting here for a couple of hours now?” and then all of a sudden you’re all “hang on, it’s time to stop for [...]

Not Much Longer Until NaBloPoMo!

Monday, October 19th, 2009

Is anybody else really looking forward to this year’s NaBloPoMo?  I mean, sure they’ve expanded it so you can do it every month if you want and then there’s that whole Blog 365 thing (that I failed MISERABLY in 2008) but for me November is always NaBloPoMo month.  And I am really looking foward to [...]

Blogging From the New Computer!!

Saturday, October 17th, 2009

I didn’t quite mean to give my title a second exclamation point but now that I’m sitting here, it seems kind of appropriate.   If you follow me on twitter (and you should, seriously, I’m awesome) you’ll know that we went to Fry’s (the electronics fan’s wet dream).  We came home with two monitors.  Two big [...]

Can You Tell I was Raised (mostly) as an Only Child?

Thursday, October 15th, 2009

My current template isn’t set up to display the time of my posts so I will just tell you that it is after midnight.  It is after midnight and I am still awake.  Heck, I’m not just awake.  I’m still up and moving around!  And so is Will!  We got the parts for the fancy [...]

Getting Better. Possibly. Hopefully.

Wednesday, October 14th, 2009

Last night I got out of the house for the first time since I met Will at work on Saturday afternoon and can I just tell you that even though it was cold, windy and rainy that the fresh air felt amazing?  I can? People: the fresh air felt amazing.  So good.  I just wanted [...]

Dear Immune System,

Tuesday, October 13th, 2009

You and I have inhabited the same body for more than thirty years now and I have a question.  Why can’t I ever just get a head cold?  Why must every sniffle become a cough? Seriously I.S. what’s up?  As soon as I started to feel the sniffles take hold last week I swore off [...]

Catching Up

Monday, October 12th, 2009

I got through the major caffeine withdrawals just in time to come down a cold.  Will and I spent most of the weekend sprawled out in the living room moaning and sniffling and snuffling and blowing our noses.  Incidentally? When my left sinus gets clogged and I try to keep blowing my nose anyway?  I [...]

No Blue Sticks Yet. Keep Your Nickers Untwisted Please.

Tuesday, October 6th, 2009

Now that we are married quite a few of our relatives and friends are all over us like rice pilaf on a junior high school cafeteria wall to get with the babymaking.  This is partly our fault.  We let it slip to a few people that we would most likely start “trying” soon after the [...]
