Ouch

I guess I haven’t healed as much as I thought I had. It still hurts… a lot. It’s not the overwhelming pain that was there for so long, but more of a dull ache that resurfaced last night. It’s dulling today, but it’s still there and I’m not sure what I’m supposed [...]

So… normally I’m over at my original blog.
But I wanted to see what WP has to offer and so far it’s pretty OK.   I’m not to happy that I have to remote host my pictures, rather then uploading ‘em right from my computer.  That’s a bit of a pain in the rear.  We’ll see [...]

Thank you Ginger!

We got spoiled last night… with the highlight being Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. Very good. Very close to my head’s idea of what things should look like. Fantastic costuming – the main reason I go to movies in the first place. Now I can waste time sourcing [...]

The dreads are going. It makes me sad, but I can’t keep them.
