In the spirit of forgetting good blog fodder

I’ve forgotten more blog post ideas than I’ve written in the last month or two. It’s sad really … I’ll say “I am SO blogging that” and am all hot to trot before getting side-tracked by something else and then eventually completely forgetting what it was I had wanted to blog about in the first place.

/sigh

Today, though, I have a shit-load of a list to pour out on paper. This is what happens when I don’t make a note when ..read more

The great iMac hard drive adventure of 2010!

So I am sitting here, working on my iMac on the 25th of June. I had only JUST migrated all my work stuff back from the Macbook to the iMac since it is a much better machine to work on when I can. I was just getting back into the groove of working with a desktop instead of on a laptop perched on my knees. I was trying to figure out the best way to keep info sync’d between them ..read more

I am not that much of an apple fangirl

(This post was begun on June 25th – the day the hard drive in the iMac crashed. Forgive the late post.)

June 24th was release day for the iPhone 4G. I got all caught up in the feeding frenzy, attempted to pre-order and made plans to drive to Austin to “pick up my new phone”. I knew it was going to be crowded. I knew I’d be miserable for a few hours while I struggled with my crowd-phobia. But I figured ..read more

New toys? For me? I promise I won’t break them this time!

I had to find the exact quote and use it.

By far, XT-002 Deconstructor is possibly one of WoW’s most annoying boss fights ever (“NO! NO! NO! NO! NO!” in a high-pitched voiced, kiddie-tantrum fashion complete with pounding his fists into the floor) … but right here and right now, his first statement is so very apt.

I’ve got a couple new toys! I promise I won’t break them this time!

Well, one of them hasn’t arrived yet and I am going to ..read more

Deployment days – day 1 down

I started writing on Friday about all the stuff that’s happened in the last week – but things got hectic over the weekend…

Saturday was raid day for me, and I managed to get in on a 10man ICC AND a 25man ICC in one day. Came away with some phat lewtz tew. It was a good day.

Sunday was THE DAY! Except that it was cancelled in the evening. So THE DAY got moved to Monday and let me tell you ..read more

Counting down to departure day

Since we haven’t been told which day exactly hubby is leaving, we sit and wait this week … wait for a phone call. One phone call that could come at any time – night or day – that will forever change our lives. It sounds dramatic, but I tell you that it is not untrue nor is it overstated. This deployment has already changed us in ways that I don’t know that I would see normally. If it were not ..read more
