Ugh.

Why must software "wizards"

be plagued with dumb

cartoon drawings of wizards?

When was that cute?

My lurking Meeker tells me

there are many Watchmen.

I'm talking about the comic book,

by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons.

Lemme try this:

Watchmen discussion,

with spoilers.

(Good book; go read it first.)

Recently finished The Watchmen.

Which is more important to you:

Personal freedom

or peace?

Discuss.

Honest, personal posts;

commenting system.

Pick one.

Yo,

proxy,

the internet is over

here.

sigh...

Note to self:

movies

Oh,

and my damn script works.

Finally!

Yesterday was a big day.

I am now

an Advanced Toastmaster, Bronze.

You may all address me as

"My Lady."

Second baseball game

(ever)

last night.

Nice evening;

boring sport. Gad.

Checking my webpage

to look for comments

makes sense.

Checking in Blogger

(for a new post?)

does not.

*blink blink*

Who blithely picks up the phone

to call Austin

from China?

Wow.

Addicts' conversation, simply:

"Go down?"

"Sure."

Another smoke break.

Toastmasters

is making

my head

explode.

Going to a

baby shower

today!

Holy cow.

A corollary to live by:

Any technology

distinguishable from magic

is insufficiently advanced.

from the Jargon Lexicon

Funny.

The web's gone quiet.

Too quiet.

It's my anniversary!

Two years at Dell.

Stealing an idea from Ben,

which he stole from a book,

I give you:

600 seconds

Look, Austin,

this is simple:

Fail to drive like an asshole.

Okay?

I've got a pamphlet, if you'd like.

New dream post:

Maternity suit riot

What a great idea.

Makes me want to cook.

Or maybe just write about it.

Ben offers a writing exercise.

Let's collect entries,

and I'll find a place to post them.

(Ben's blog is a definite candidate.)

you don't kick as high."

Ooh!

Install done!

Successful,

and early.

So that was odd.

I needed my husband,

calling me

on his cell phone,

to realize it is raining.

Yes,

that,

exactly.

If we forfeit our freedoms,

what, exactly,

are we protecting?

Cross your fingers for me.

Install, tonight.

A request:

Please don't talk

to the fat girl

about her selections

at the vending machine.

Thank you.

I knew if I made too many posts,

this would fall off the bottom.

Envy me.

*smirk*

I can't really take credit,

but I feel like I've enabled

something beautiful to happen.

The best gift I've given a friend:

an outlet.

Words to live by

from my soda bottle:

PLAY AGAIN

Pithy preamble eludes me, so:

my friend makes art.

I made it!

YACCS allows 25 new users

I feel like Caller 10.

Beethoven.com is playing

"Stairway to Heaven,"

as performed by the London Philharmonic.

And it's great.

Oh, the Cyndi Lauper dress (below)

was made by Natosha

for the Toastmasters prom.

...Neat.

An email from Japan

addressed me as

Sharon-san.

Man,

the rest of my site is out of date.

When I get some time...

*sigh*

She's so unusual.
