Essential Inventory

As part of my new compulsive need to organize my apartment, I’ve decided I need to make a list of all the essential things I need to keep for cooking and/or entertaining. Since I’m almost done with the bar (yes it’s taken me over two years now), I started a list of what I want [...]


2010: The Year I Kick Some Ass

I’m making bold predictions for this year. I don’t think I’ll be actually kicking some ass, since that’s never really been an issue in my adult life.  No, what I’m referring to is the fact that I think I’ve come up with actual achievable goals for the year. These goals aren’t just really easy to [...]


Dungeons and Large Lizard-Like Creatures

A month or so ago I started running a D&D game with a handful of people from my family.  It’s the first game I’ve ever run, so I’m not sure I’m doing all that great as a DM.  I think we’re all having fun, though, and that’s what is important.  We’re doing Keep on the [...]


Holiday Weekends

It seems that holiday weekends, though longer, foster in me an intense desire to loaf off and not get anything done.  I have so much stuff to get caught up, and with an extra day this weekend I was hoping to find some time to do said catching up. But when I sat down to [...]


Fitness Reboot

At some point, I stopped eating well and exercising, which had been going super well for a while.  I’m not sure when I stopped doing well, but it’s time for me to pick it up again.  My guess is it’s because of the freaking weather.  It’s so blooming hot outside – I have an hour [...]


I Never Promised Anything Epic

Since I was home by myself most of the night, I decided to run Juno again in the background while I worked on other things.  It still held up on a second viewing, and now I’ve been running the soundtrack on my other PC.  Pay no attention to the fact that I’ve got nothing more [...]


Grumble Grumble

I’m trying out Windows Live Writer for this post.  I wanted to see how it feels, if it’s more comfortable than the WordPress editor I just might switch. I am such a slacker.  I should be posting here more often (preferably daily), I should be posting at HazardousToast (anything at all), and I still haven’t [...]


Shaving and Other Activities

I’ve decided to try and switch to a classic double-edge style razor instead of the disposable cartridge style.  The “modern” razors always destroy my face, so after reading stuff on Badger & Blade and Lifehacker I picked up a Merkur 38C and tried it out.  So far, I love it – crazy good and it [...]
