I have a post all typed up and sitting in draft.
It explains what one (meaning ‘me’) goes through when preparing for a hurricane. It even has a couple pictures I snapped with my camera phone. That post will have to wait because I have some other things to do before I can get to [...]

Another ‘Damn Spammers’ Post
Since I first installed Askismet with my WP upgrade exactly 2 months ago, 10,019 spam comments have been eaten with not a single false positive. What a milestone.
Hooray for Akismet! Boo for spammers — I hope rabid gremlins gnaw your face off while you sleep.
Can’t Beat The System? Cheat The System.
Before you start thinking that this is one bad little girl, it wasn’t her fault, it was her mother who told her to go up there and throw the ball “in the small hole”.
Instead, maybe she should have been teaching her daughter that our actions can influence those around us — positively or negatively.

The Geek’s A Year Older
No, not this geek - this geek, who seems to be spending a lot more of her blogging time here.
Happy birthday Chrissie!! And remember, not only are you a year older, you’re also a year wiser. That should take some of the sting out of it.

Sometimes I wish I could revert back to kindergarten and have nap time. You know what? I think I will.
From this moment until sometime in the early evening, Teli is officially [...]
The Water Bra
I think I’ve been living in a cave or something because I had no idea that they made things called water bras.
While running a few errands, I happen into the bra/underwear section and see something with the word water on the tag. This made me very curious. Being the touchy-feely person that I am, I [...]
Musing About Blog Entries
I’m starting to think that no blog entry should be more than 400 words in length. Actually, a blog entry with no point should be no longer than 400 words in length. That’s more than enough room to say nothing.
Best Way To Get Me To Agree To Something?
Call me really early in the morning (wake me up if you can), then plead like a young child until I become so aggravated, I just say ‘fine’.*
It appears I’ll be heading to Orlando at the end of the month. When I said I was ready for a vacation, I was talking about Australia. Ah, [...]
