I like to check in with my site meter once in a while, and see who’s been visiting and how they found their way here. Some IP#’s have become old friends, and while I can’t rattle anybody’s number off from memory yet, I do now recognize a few old stalwarts, like McMurdo or a couple…

For all who have asked … I’ll do the interview questions over the weekend. I hadn’t anticipated that more than a couple people would be interested.

… I miss my mind the most. This week so far: Tuesday: I was supposed to get blood work done. I forgot. I thought it was NEXT Tuesday. Still waiting for fall-out over that one. Wednesday: Spent all afternoon waiting for The Socialist’s Aunt Artist and Uncle Oregon to call. They never did. I got…

Imported from another MoonriddenGirl’s diary entry dated 4 February 2004: RULES 1 – Leave a comment, saying you want to be interviewed. 2 – I will respond; I’ll ask you five questions. 3 – You’ll update your journal with my five questions and your five answers. 4 – You’ll include this explanation. 5 – You’ll…

Well, the weekend was a mixed bag, but it mostly qualified as a success. The big news is that I finally got my scanner working again. The damned thing is, I don’t know how I did it. I was finally able to locate the unzipped files (the ones that I complained I couldn’t find in…

Technically, the word was thirteen letters long, but that’s because I used the adjective form ending in “ing” instead of the noun form ending in “er”. And it isn’t that I rarely use it. As The Socialist will only be too happy to tell you, I never use it. I find it offensive. The poor…

OK, let me state right up front that bereavement fares are a joke. Now, I can understand that, since the funeral is two weeks away, it’s too early to qualify for a bereavement fare. I can’t actually order bereavement airline tickets until a week or less before the actual departure. But when I called around…

These are the animal organizations that get my contributions: my local SPCA (check the phone book or web to find where they are local to you) The Morris Animal Shelter – a local, nationally reknown shelter A local no-kill cat shelter (there are probably no-kill shelters in your area as well) Humane Society of the…
