Those of you so inclined, send a prayer or a condolence card to the manager of my apartment complex. She just sat through fifteen minutes of me ranting about last night. It wasn’t her fault, it was beyond her control, she apologized beautifully and promised me reimbursement for my flowers, and I was still so…
You’ll have to excuse me. I’m pissed. I’m really pissed. I probably shouldn’t be making an entry right now. I probably should be cooling off first. takes a deep breath But I’m going with the moment here. I have momentum. I have a good head of steam going. I am royally P.O.’d. I just got…
OK, I promise to knock off the “M ±” stuff after this entry. I suspect it comes from watching too much Babylon 5. Then again, I’m not sure it’s possible to watch too much Babylon 5. The Younger Sister called this morning to let me know she was now well into the coughing/sneezing/nose-blowing portion of…
mille : a thousand. millies milies : a thousand times. My thousandth entry, and the best I can do is wonder why one thousand isn’t called “one million” since “mille” is Latin for “a thousand”. I tried to look up the etymology of million on Google to find out why it’s called that, but all…

It won’t be…

It’s a disturbing trend. I have now had four or five hits on my diary by people who were referred by search engines using the key words “veterinarian” and “suicide”. I also had a hit from someone looking for a picture of “dead squirrel”. Surely my entries haven’t been as dismal as all that, have…
I had gone to Canon’s site before, but when a search using the error message that ZoomBrowserEX gave me failed to turn anything up, I abandoned all hope. Tonight, fueled by your suggestion, I returned to their stupid site and looked through all the known problems connected with my camera’s software. I turned up a…
It wasn’t my fault! All I can say in my own defense is that the Dear Diary system had a severe case of the indigestion, and I was unfortunate enough to attempt to update multiple times during the worst of it. I really did check after each update to see if the entry was there….
