Early Birds and the Worm
Yes, I'm well aware of the fact that absolutely no one is awake at 4:00 in the AM - no one but me, that is. I woke up about 2:00 and couldn't get back to sleep. But since I have a whole lot of work.....
Today
Morning, guys! Well, I am on the phone with the doctor right now. Hopefully, she will be giving me something because I have to run to the bank anyway, so I want to do it all in one, fell swoop. ... ...
Short Break
I am going to get you a review out tonight, but I need to take a break for a few. My body is killing me today - I guess because of the rain, even though it really hasn't rained. Tonight, I am... Re...
Running it Down All Day Long
It's rainy and muggy here and I desperately need to get down to the bank to deposit the money for my rent, but since someone stole my umbrella, I am unable to do that and since the landlady refuses......
Agenda
I am in a slightly better mood than the past two days, so that's something. I'm just letting you know that, yes, there will be a short rush of posts early this morning and then I am going to... Read...
OPT Pt. 2
So you noticed I didn't get to the advance reviews like I said I was going to, huh? That's right. I also didn't get to pay my loan, nor speak to the cable company, nor pay my rent, utilities, or... ...
OPT
I am so sick of being on Other People's Time! Yesterday, I sat around here all day, waiting for someone who asked me to drive her into town because she has back problems, to come through. She was......
BattleTech and Battling Charter Communications
Well, I have to apologize to y'all yet again on behalf of Charter Communications. This is not the first time, as regular readers well know. I spent my entire day calculating, calling,... Read More....
Agenda
Morning, freaks and geeks! Like I told you the other day, I have to go into town and pay some bills and "town" is a 30-minute drive from here, so I already know I'll be out of action for a... Read M...
Agenda
Hey guys. Not sure what today will bring, but since it's a Sunday and I already know there won't be as many hits as usual, I am going to try and get at least one of these advance reviews out to... R...
Weekend Warrior
Well, this week has largely been a bust and I am solely to blame for that. Being the first of the month and all, I had to pay bills - still have bills to pay, in fact - and things like that. To be.....
Morning!
Morning, nerds! How are Things? Typical here, except that it's hot outside. Nowhere near as hot as it's going to get this summer, but it's hot. I'll be honest, I don't much feel like being up... ...
Great Tits Enjoy Warming
Well, who didn't know that, right? I have often wanted to post some sort of "Headlines" segment that just lists all sorts of headlines found online out of context - such as this one - but I never... ...
Wobbling Into the Future
Yes, if you noticed some issues with your feed and the blog, it's because I screwed-up the dates on a couple of them. Blogger now has future posting, which means you can schedule entries for...... R...
A String of Movies
I included the "review" tag just because; this isn't a review - certainly not of any one movie, anyway. In fact, I'm not exactly sure wtf it is going to be yet. I have a thousand things to say on......
The Blahs
Sorry about that. There was actually a somewhat emergent situation Tuesday (well, not exactly "emergent," but I got caught-up and couldn't get back) and then I found out yesterday morning that I had....
Late Start
Yeah, I obviously got a late start today - yesterday, too. Dunno what's been up this week (so far), but I've barely slept right the last few days. I fall asleep when I go to bed, then wake up about....
Back in the Settee Again
Okay, guys. Today will be back to business as usual - pending, of course... Sorry last week was such a bust. I still haven't heard back from the doctor, so I have to call them in a few. I was... ...
BBS
Sorry for the absence. Still haven't slept a wink since Monday - this is highly unusual and, excepting the lack of coffee (replaced with a healthy and very regular selection of tea and Coca-Cola),......
Rundown
After just reporting - and it was exactly that, contrary to what I specify in the post itself - on two blogger-related deaths so far this year, we're now in Hour 43 and we're going all the... Read Mo...
Agenda
Geez. For the past two days, I have been trying to reply to some of your comments and keep getting some error about how the server is too busy. It says Google cannot validate from OSCP or something....
One of Those
This is One of Those Days. It's a perfect 71ยบ outside. The sun is shining brightly and fluffy clouds float by while the neighborhood dog cavorts about, looking for a petting from anyone who doesn't...
Wasted Time?
You know, I spent the majority of two days this week drafting long, deep articles on blogging, illegal immigration, and just things, in general. And didn't publish any of them. I actually spent... ...
Timing
I know my timing has been off these past few weeks - I get a string of content out to you early in the day, then suddenly stop; I usually try to space things out pretty evenly throughout the day. ... ...
Morning, Sunshine
Well, the roofers finally got to my building. Yes, they began dutifully at 9:00 this morning. I awoke to the sound of aluminum ladders striking the rain gutters and footsteps plodding across the... ...
A Few Odds and Ends
Yes, this is yet another of those generalized "agenda" posts, but I'm just checking-in. I have some more advance reviews this week, and I'm going to look at some titles already on the market -... Re...
Whew!
Well, that seminar thing was a complete bust. 2 1/2 hours down there, 2 1/2 hours to sit through the stupid thing, and 2 1/2 hours back. By the time I got home last night, I was beat; my neck,... R...
Agenda
Well, I finally got the taxes done. After pulling out about a dozen folders full of receipts and returns and so forth and measuring the entire house with a 12' tape measure, I managed to come up with....
Death & Taxes
I wonder if one of your dying thoughts is, "I'd rather be doing my taxes." Because, while doing my taxes, I have often thought, "I would rather be dead." The real problem is that I found out I also....
Agenda
I'm just dropping-by to say hello, really. Got into the tax thing the past few days and I would have gotten a nice little refund, were it not for the fact that I am self-employed... in fact, if I... ...
