Just wandered over the Hillbilly Sophisticate, and saw that S is going to be participating in NaNo this year. So head on over and give her some support! Of course, if she’s going to write 50k words in November, she might not have much time to read or respond to comments and e-mails.
Me, I’m going [...]
A man has been placed on the sex offenders’ register after being caught trying to have sex with a bicycle.
The best part is there is a large full color picture of the man (NOT NEKKID) in the story, so it’s not just that his name is out there, now we know exactly what he looks [...]
Any Steven Brust fans out there will want to check out this rendition of The Cycle.
I think I’d be either a Tsalmoth or a Lyron. But I want to be an Issola. Too bad I can’t achieve the grace required for the courtliness.
Let’s see… here’s a tentative classification of people I know (I’m not going [...]
According to this fun and exciting quiz, I don’t have asperger’s or autism. Yippee!
(more…)
I’ve raved about Jungle Jim’s before (though most of my raving occurs in person), and how when we’re in Cincinnati visiting friends we HAVE to go to Jungle Jim’s because it is THE most amazing store ever.
Well, you don’t have to take just my word for it, Neil Gaiman likes Jungle Jim’s too!
Whenever I drive [...]
I’m listening to the post game show (this game sounded so much better than last weeks game) and I have to say that the more time passes, the more I like Pat White. During the post game interview not only did he sound polite and modest, but he also complimented his teammates.
Everyone else may want [...]
I’m very glad that the end of the month is turning out to be nothing at all like the start of the month.
For further good news, my Dad’s PSA was 0.0, which it never was, even following his surgery. So it looks like the radiation therapy was effective. Which is a huge relief.
So, here’s another [...]

Okay Internet! Let’s go! Entertain me! Michael’s working all weekend long and as long days scheduled Monday and Tuesday, so I’m ready to be entertained! Let’s go!
(waits)
Rats.
(wanders off to read four or five books)
Welcome Hannah Rose!
Congratulations Kim & Mike! At a month early, 7 lbs 3 oz is pretty good!
I can’t wait to see pictures!
What’s that boy? Timmy’s stuck in the well?
Perfect.
Michelle: (muttering to self while working on database) Books. Books. Books. Books…
Michael: You sound like a zombie.
Michelle: (adding sepulcher tone to muttering) Boooooks! Boooooooks! Boooooooks!
Michael: Great. You’ve turned into a book zombie.
I was just thinking that it’s probably just as important to write about the good days as it is the bad, so here’s the update on my depression: The vacation did wonders for me. I’ve been in a great mood for two weeks now. I’m relaxed and calm and the little niggling details that were [...]
So work on the database is going well. Today I got the database to insert new books (this is harder than it sounds, because it involves three tables, and inserting multiple records into the same field of one of those tables.
If anyone wants to see, lemme know and I’ll send you the link.
Next step, creating [...]
Okay, I have to admit that I love reading cute overload, even though sometimes it’s just way too twee, and I usually am annoyed by the titles and comments.
But THIS! This is amazing!
I warned Michael, but he looked and immediately said, “Oh My Gosh! That is SO CUTE!”
So you have been warned.
I just sat down to check my mail, and then two hours are gone?!
I am NEVER going to finish my book at this rate.
There’s a new Sony Bravia Ad. (If you don’t know why this should make you happy, go watch the high bounce ball ad and the paint ad.
AND I found another Bravia ad I’d never seen before (thread).
There are also new videos up at EepyBird (otherwise known as the Mentos and Diet Coke guys).
But as if [...]
The search function for my database is done for now. Yay me!
Next up: how to add more books to the database, which means updating multiple records from a single form. Then I want to start linking the database to the book portion of my website. Unless I can figure something out, that may be a [...]
The database now has better search functions, and the search results are linked to a more complete listing for a selected book.
Woot!

I may have mentioned a couple of weeks ago that I’ve been trying to learn php & mysql.
I decided that my project would be a book database, to go with my book website. Because I’m learning this on my own, all I’ve managed so far is to create the database, and create two different searches. [...]
