Snark
OK, so you’ve probably read about Tuesday and Wednesday. Let me tell you about yesterday, Thursday! Yesterday started off fine. I had the kiln going by 7:30 AM, and it’s a bisque fire which meant 9 hours — perfect timing for getting me out of the house to meet my friends for Third Thursday Spinners [...]
There is something about technology not working that makes HULK SMASH. I swear, when I turn something on and it doesn’t work, I get Lizard Brain. I will shake it and cry “MAKE WORK! THIS NO GO! MAKE GO!” even if I’m the only one in the room. Internet service at our house has been [...]

So, I DID have this idea for a blog post I was going to write this week about how I had downloaded this To-Do List app for FancyPants, called Astrid. It’s got both a phone app (so I can add things if I think of them away from home, or check things off as I [...]

I have a love/hate relationship with the forums over at Etsy. On one hand, there is genuinely useful information in there, if you can get past the misspellings and the lack of punctuation. On the other hand, sometimes I think I’m the only one who knows how to do a key word search because MY [...]

Oh, ow, I think my head just exploded. So. I THOUGHT (hahahahah!) that I’d told you the whole story back in December; turns out there was a minor addendum last month that almost made me find a baby to punch in the face. We had about a week to get all the vegetation away from [...]

The title really does say it all. Other people are a constant lesson in frustration. “I love mankind; it’s people I can’t stand.” — Charles M. Schulz At one of the bookstores where I used to work, I had a district manager who used to pop out such gems as “my perception of you is [...]

A few months ago, we got a notice that the company with which we have our homeowners insurance was randomly dropping about 50% of the homes it has in Florida. Something about hurricanes, which apparently destroy homes, and insurance companies don’t like to pay for? Hello, isn’t that why we have insurance? Fuckity fuckers. Here’s [...]
