Fascinated by technology since the Trash 80 came out. A grand lover…of coffee. My patron saint is Grumpy Cat, I live alone by choice, and I read way too much fanfiction. Cursed to live during interesting times.

The better soul of the house, and probably the smartest too. Definitely the cutest. She’s what gets me out of bed in the mornings and makes my life far more joyous every day than I deserve. ♥

I am, right now, listening to my BattleStar Galactica OST megamix, which is 5 hours of BSG music. I love it. I have not listened to it in a long time, though. If you've been keeping up then you know I've been rediscovering older music I own due to organizing it (at...

Writing this in a rush to beat the 11 am deadline for the mailout — I overslept, had to get to the grocery store before heading into the office, and then got distracted by some work I needed to get done ASAP, so this just got scuttled for a bit. That said, my walk...

I am currently listening to Dead Can Dance, which I have not done in YEARS, because I've been re-organizing my entire music library using MediaMonkey software (which I do recommend, might write an actual blog post about it at some point). I only mention it because...

My weekend was spent in hibernation. I did not check my primary email(s) and I even stayed off of twitter for the most part. I was feeling overwhelmed, but not about any one specific thing, just...overwhelmed. There are so many things I want to do and I feel like I...
Correct vs. Perfect
I am often hamstrung by a trait that looks like perfectionism, and might be considered a cousin of it: correctionism. (I made that word up, FYI. It’s not perfect! But it will have to do!)

I got us out, after a late start, in a break in the rain. The weather app, forever untrustworthy, made me think that we'd have an hour or so before the storms returned in force but by 30 minutes in, it was thundering and snapping lightening and spitting rain so we...

In a rare feat of self motivation, I hurled myself out of bed at 5 am! This had nothing to with discipline but rather incoming rain. I had the foresight to check the weather app last night, which said big storms would be moving in this morning. Weather app is,...

I'm sorry to inflict this photo on you but I thought it was hilarious — a lone duck standing on the wall, with the lights across the way on it, looking for all the world like a scene in a movie where someone is silhouetted by police spotlights. Is it an evil...

A typical, if pleasantly cool, morning in Tallahassee. Keely is still on the hunt for the local fox, I think, given her firm demands to wander in and around some bushes she normally ignores, nose firmly pointed at the ground. I'm pretty sure she would have no idea...

Perhaps the doubling up on the vodka last night was a little much-ish, as I totally crashed out and slept in late. Still, we got out of the house before 7 a.m., which is find since today is a WFH day. I should be enjoying these days more, as the time is coming soon...

It is Easter for some folks, which means the usual Sunday patterns were flipped. Instead of mostly empty roads and a scattering of cars in parking lots as early shoppers beat the crowds, it was busier on the roads as people sped their way to church and all the parking...

It's Friday AGAIN??? I am grateful to have made it through another work week but seems like just yesterday I got my first COVID shot...but that was Monday. So not yesterday, then. The week has been a fog. The COVID vax (pfizer) did knock me down with fatigue and...
