Drive-by

If you’re not reading tesla321’s “Uncomfortably Numb” you should be, because it is awesome. As is missmurchison’s “PillowTalk.”
Friday I was more or less recovered from the cold, though still not very peppy, since I kept waking up every couple of hours imagining Sam was doing something he shouldn’t be doing. At work […]

Tired

Sam is home from the vet - his surgery went well, and while there’s no absolute certainty that they got every single tumor cell, the surgeon said that she’s pleased with the outcome. He’s alert and able to walk, but preferring to rest in his his dog bed for now. They gave me […]

Snurfle

Since my life was not exciting enough, this weekend I caught a cold. Not a bad cold; just enough to make me feel bluggy, cause the hives to flare up, and keep me up all night snorfling (and thus keep Kathy up all night.) Today, as I was driving Sam over to the […]

Thanks

To everyone who expressed their good wishes for Sam. It means a lot. The surgeon can’t see him till Monday, so… more hurry up and wait.

OK, I’m stumped. If any of you out there who actually understands CSS can tell me if there’s any way to pad the text within an element without affecting the background images, I will be eternally grateful. I started out messing with my blog’s style sheet in an attempt to make the olor […]

Fic: An Ordinary Life

This is kinda sorta for the September 1st Bring Back The Porn fic thingy, but I’m afraid it doesn’t have a lot of porn in it. I tried, I really did. But everything porny I could think of was either part of a much longer story, or felt like I’d already been there […]

To give you some idea how my life has been going, some weeks ago I was having an anxiety dream I can’t recall the details of now, and halfway through the dream, the dream director apparently decided I wasn’t doing a good enough job, because one minute I was angsting about whatever it was that […]
