6462 – Into Battle! (Brief, 539-letter entry.)

Remembered to take home my carrot cake, and now I’m getting ready to go play some mage knight and hang with the hippie-folk.

I think I’ll take an Orc army or two with me, and toss in a few Zombies for fun.

Orcs and zombies go together like peas and carrots! I’ll toss in a grave digger. too. Got to keep those Zombie front-liners lurching!

Wish me victory, dear journal! (or at least a fine game!) Be back in a few.

6461 Friday the 13th! Who knew?

I feel physically quiet lately. Sort of unassuming, silent, a little sleepy. I think it’s a low-grade follow-up to the nasty flu I had last week. I’m pretty good at tossing aside any case of the bummers that I might pick up, and instead of being a mope, I’m just sort of sleepy and shushed.

This may be partly due to the fact that I’m spending more time near family lately… Mom and Bro seem to tap my batteries if I have to be the diplomat for too long. Bro’s court date is coming up on the 23rd, and it’ll be nice to have him past that particular hurdle. Mom’s helping with the real estate search, too, and for the care they both have, I’m thankful. (I think Bro found me the place I want to invest in, if I can get the price down.)Site Meter

Tonight, I visit with the hippies, and I hope my energy is sparked up a little by then. Maybe play some heroclix and enjoy a little good conversation. (I fear that Dave and Cathi may both be fairly drained, too, considering the workload they’re dealing with lately.)

My body’s thermostat still is bouncing from a little too cool to a little too warm.


Some great research links to waste time on –

Many pictures, if words are too much bother.-

PhotoMemes.org is intended to be a simple site that lists photography-related memes on the web. Please tell us about any new memes, so we can add them to the list. What is a meme? In simplest terms, a meme is a contagious idea. Therefore, these are all interesting photo projects that focus on a uniquely contagious idea or theme. Also, not all photo meme projects need to be collaborative, although many of them tend to be.

The Urban Beast Project (I rather like Fernando, the Miniature Trash Mammoth but the others are sort of scary. )


CS, (or possibly the Big Kahuna… she was probably the last one out the door) neglected to switch the on-call phones over to MA tonight after work yesterday. MA called me about 9 pm and let me know… I *really* hope there’s no major ramifications as a result.

There’s a *lot* of f-ing up lately. CS failed to launch 2 notifications until I called him to remind him, and he just can’t seem to stay on the ball. He’s a fine tech on site, but after hours, he sucks pretty badly. I think he might be more useful to us as a part-time network guy, just coming in when we’re swamped, killing the cost of benefits and a salary.

I think BK might just have too much on her plate, and is unable to delegate effectively. MA, VS, and I all have a decent workload, a lot, but it’s doable. CC needs to offload some of her duties to DL and ADP, so she can get back to what she does best, expansion.

A Good thing – success #54 in Plantation. Press release soon.


Playing the recorder was rather soothing to me last night.


I have to remember to bring the last of Monday’s birthday carrot-cake home tonight, or chuck it. It’ll no last the weekend.


I *still* really dig the simplicity of Elephants, Yeah!”. I’m glad he got the quiznos Gig. Anyone that sings the Giant Bee song is aces in my book.


Never did get around to having supper last night. I ended the day *under* my WW point-scale, at 13 points for the whole day. I wonder if that’ll screw up my week, because of storage issues? Maple and brown sugar oatmeal is a good way to get rolling this morn.
