Jazzy

I’m starting to really like jazz. I am currently even listening to the “Smooth Jazz” station on iTunes. Does this mean I’m getting old?
Coinsidentally, I also like Diet Pepsi Jazz.

Thus ends Saddam

So the US Government turned Saddam Hussein over to Iraqi officials today, and within 5 hours they had him executed.  They don’t waste any time over there.  As he was getting off the plane and transferred, they already had the gallows set up with a clergy, doctor, judge, and witnesses on the scene.
I mean, I [...]

This is awesome!

Jimmy showed me this today. I literally laughed out loud for several minutes straight. This has to be one of the best things I have seen all week.

Tired

I’m pretty exhausted… had to go back to work today for the first day after Christmas. Then we all went to see Katie dance in The Nutcracker. ‘Twas a full night. I would say more, but I can barely think to type this blog.
I’m going to sleep.
And, for those interested and waiting, [...]

Christmas Eve musings

Quote from Jimmy on Christmas Eve to my mom:
“Now we have the same depression and the same iPod! We can take our pills and listen to music at the same time!”

Usually I try to get someone else to do it, but this year it’s all me. I did have quite a few offers from other people to help me wrap the gifts, though…. including from the one and only Gaily Waily!
Gail is pretty [...]

It’s a boy!

It seems that I have been neglecting the good ol’ blog as of late. This is due to an excessive amount of Christmas shopping and trying to maintain a life away from the keyboard. But I’m back.
I had a realization the other day. Maybe not a “realization” as much as it was [...]

So delish…

I found this awesome program awhile back. I downloaded it, but never really used it. Seems they have released a new version of it, and I re-downloaded it to see what it was really about.
It’s called Delicious Library. It’s a computerized library of all your books, music, movies, games, and the [...]

Apologies, lessons learned, and the ability to laugh at one’s self

So, I kinda screwed something up a little within the past few days. Maybe more than a little. I shan’t go into the specific details, but I’ll just say that it provided for some interesting experiences.
I probably should have known better looking in retrospect, but of course, hindsight is always viewed in perfect [...]
