Addresses

I seem to be in charge of the UCF address book. However, I am missing the addresses of some of you. So if you’d like your address shared with the rest of us crazy people, send me your address, and then I can send out the addresses to everyone who wants ‘em. Lemme know in the comments [...]

Memory Block

Yesterday driving Susan to the airport, I had one of those blanks where you can’t remember a person. We’d been talking about Robert Parker’s Spenser books, and I remembered a throw away line where Spenser is sitting in an hotel room watching the news, and he notes that the anchors voices get deeper as the evening [...]

Don’t Order Books When You’re Sick

When I was sick, I read quite a few books, and ended up going to Amazon looking for sequels or books that continued the series I was reading. And, of course, other books that looked interesting. Unfortunately, I apparently had trouble keeping track of what I had already ordered. Thus… Is anyone interested in a copy of Steampunk [...]

Flower Pr0n

With lots of rain, the garden is blooming like mad. The most ridiculous plant is Michael’s Stargazer Lily. I don’t particularly like Asiatic lilies–I don’t like they way they’re so top heavy and require support–but Michael really likes them, so I have several. Michael is 5′ 10″ if that gives you some perspective of how [...]

Really Busy Saturday

As previously noted, our Saturday was busy, and two unexpected events ended up making it even more so. Susan is here for a weekend visit, because she came in for the retirement party for one of her professors. She was gone to the party most of the day, so I was thinking I’d get some things [...]

What on Earth Could that Be?

Susan is here for a brief weekend visit. I may be in and out today. Or I may not. Make yourselves at home in the meantime.

Friday Cat Blogging

We’re out picking up Susan from the airport, so this seems somehow appropriate.

Friday? Not Monday? Really?

Forgetting my office keys is not a good way to start Friday. That’s much more of a Monday move. Luckily for me, there is a key to my office here, I just had to borrow a key so I could get into the locked room where the spare key to my office is. Let’s hope that’s the [...]

Gee, Something Is Different Over There

Why yes, something has changed at Escapism, and that is because erin is pregnant! She’s started blogging again, and I’m hoping for lots of strange food and mood swing stories. While we’re waiting for those, please go over and congratulate her! Maybe if we’re lucky we’ll get pictures after her next ultrasound. (HINT! HINT!)

Bra Power!

Harnessing the power of breast movement: (B)reasts move on three different axes: from side to side, front to back, and up and down. The most motion is generated on the vertical axis. Naturally, the bigger the breast, the more momentum it generates. “Let’s face it—if you’re a double-A marathoner, you’re probably not going to get that [...]

DRAT THEM!

The ball girl video was fake. Boo hiss! However, here’s something that isn’t fake, and why I was willing to believe the ball girl video was real. Parkour and free running.
