My Blood’s No Good

Each year, sometimes twice, I try to donate blood. I figure, I’m helping someone out who needs it and every time, they tell me the same thing, “you just made it.” Meaning, my blood iron levels just barely eeked by.
You see, I’m anemic. I’m supposed to take very large quantities of iron. Quantities that would [...]

Great Stress Relief

Stop what you’re doing and go jump on the bed. You’ll feel better.
Don’t have easy access to a bed at the moment? Find your nearest mattress shop and tell them you’re just testing the integrity of the mattress before you purchase.

GTD

Well, August is a decidedly relaxed month for me in terms of client projects. However, it doesn’t mean I don’t have things to do. In fact, I have quite a bit to do.

I’m In The Twilight Zone.

First, I’m being proposed to by a complete stranger and now this? Something’s just really off about today. I need to go back to bed and start it over or something.

“How you doing?”
“Fine, but who’s this?”
“You don’t remember [...]

I remember a time when I had no idea what “there’s no place like 127.0.0.1” or “there are only 10 types of people in the world: those who understand binary and those who don’t” actually meant.
And a time when I never would have laughed at “SELECT * FROM users WHERE clue > 0” (with [...]

AOL Sucks.

I’ve said it before, others have said it before, but if you still needed proof that AOL sucks…
You cannot cancel your account.
Not even when you die.
And just when you thought that was bad enough, they go and publish information about what you’re searching for…
Now I’m curious, who’s going to tell user number 17556639’s [...]

How Personal Is Too Personal?

This may not come as a surprise to those who know me IRL, but I have more than one blog. Let me clarify, I have more than one personal blog.
For nearly 2 years, Mild Insanity has been the place where I vented and raged and laughed and learned. It was fun (and still is). Then [...]
