Bit of Ivory

And I’m sick of it. I get 7.5-8 hours of sleep every night. I should not be this tired. The doctors can’t find anything wrong with me, and the remedies they’ve suggested– ranging from sleeping pills to CPAP machines to getting my tonsils out– have helped not at all. I’m starting to think it’s psychological, […]

This whole thing makes me sick to my stomach. For those of you who haven’t been following the story, Lori Hacking was reported missing by her husband on July 19. He said she’d gone jogging early that morning and hadn’t returned. Searchers turned out by the hundreds to help search for her, but nothing was […]

Whew! Well– that was pretty interesting, eh? Never thought a simple post would create that much ummm. . .drama. I kind of took a break from fandom this weekend– not that I didn’t check stuff, but I spent most of my time and energy away from the computer, and I feel much better for it. […]

I got my nice shiny new copy of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix in paperback from Amazon.co.uk yesterday! Whoot! It’s so pretty! And it’s not out in the US yet, HAH!! We had a big thunderstorm last night, but luckily it stopped early enough that I could get to sleep. Am still […]

Sorry I’ve been kind of flaky about updating lately. Ginny is still gone *sob*, so my computer time is limited to how long I can stand sitting alone in my room on an uncomfortable computer chair. Which hasn’t been very long, lately. And I’ve been *trying* to avoid updating at work (I’ll only be writing […]

I have an announcement to make. My department went out for lunch today, because it’s one of our co-workers last day before he heads off to grad school. We went to Jasmine, which is a China Bistro and Sushi bar. I got the vegetable tempura, which comes with four California rolls. Otherwise known, for the […]
