Is this the Matrix?

I’m sure Morpheus is waiting outside the door with the blue pill and red pill right now. I can’t possibly living in a real world right now. I finished the 2-day cram CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) course at 5:15 p.m. today. I walked away from Justin & Olaina’s kitchen table to join them in his office in a semi-daze. Lines of codes floating in my head. We were deciding where to go for dinner. Justin said we could look at the menus on his computer. Olaina and I congregated in front of the lap top. The font was so small,...

Can Hardly Wait

…for… Arrival of Peanut/Dresden. We have been on baby watch all weekend for Aurora and James’ first child. Or as James’ WoW gang would say, “We’re waiting for Dresden to spawn.” Apparently, Nan is on baby watch as well. Let’s see who’ll be here first! Tuesday. Because Stargate SG-1 The Ark of Truth comes out on DVD. Now we can put the whole damn Ori crap to rest. AND hopefully give SG-1 a better sign-off than the stupid time traveling series finale. March 19. The day I head to San Diego to hang with Olaina and Justin for 3 days....

Brandon and I are entering a few photos into the amateur photography contest in our little city.  I have been looking forward to this since winter, and damn near almost miss the deadline!  Brandon will drop our handy works off on Monday before he goes to work.

Contentment Wall

On my way to work this morning, I had an epiphany. I am way too content with my life, and therefore I lack the motivation to do anything else. Look at it point by point and see if I’m crazy. I love my body so I’m not really that motivated to work out. Genetically, I am not set up to live until I’m 100 years old. Since I don’t plan on having kids, there is not really a reason to live that long anyway. All I have to do is outlive Brandon. 😉 However, I am changing my eating habit,...

Found. My life.

Today is the day I clean my den. Not because I want to, because you know I never REALLY want to, but I have to. My appointment with the tax lady is Thursday. Today is the day I am done with Amoxicillin that has zapped the life out of me for the past week and a half. Today is the day I get my life back. While Olaina continues to struggle with her clinical depression, I felt like I shared her pain for the past week. That feeling that you don’t want to leave the bed or do anything at...
