okay, Winter Storm, we're waaaaiting.... OH! *Here* you are! in shiny things
SO. I got up this morning when my alarm went off, all bleary and tired because I went to bed too late last night because OOOHHH!!! BLIZZARD COMING!!!! ....and there wasn't a flake of snow to be s...
hatch battening in shiny things
Word on the street is we're getting a massive snowstorm tomorrow. Well, word not so much on the street as word on the interwebs. There is much speculating and debating and estimating going on, b...
stop it, Ray, you drama queen in shiny things
Just checked the current forecast from our Not-A-Meteorologist Ray. His weather icon, which generally sports a little cartoon of the sun, or a cloud, or a cloud with a lightening bolt through it,...
well, I imagine Doc Watson is pleased. in shiny things
Taking a break from the never-ending "senior audits", which is one of those things I'm always glad to start doing each semester because by now I've gotten bored and it's something different... th...
This really is a good opportunity to actually, oh, *write* again in shiny things
I've gotten very slack about writing on OD in the past few years. Which honestly was something I kind of appreciated while saving my eighty gazillion entries to Evernote-- the last couple of year...
the arctic is no respecter of fashion. in shiny things
I am tired of winter. I am SO SO SO tired of winter. We're currently experiencing our second Polar Blast of the month, and right now it's 14 degrees (F). Last night it was down to four. Four abov...
The Stolen "A Jar of Balloons Survey, 2014 Edition" in survey time
Via Simple Minds, and created by james ensor; just the thing for a loooong dullish afternoon when I should be doing a lot of other things but don't want to. 1. Will you agree to let a lover use...
....when we were strolling lovely historic streets in warmer climes. I feel a little bad bitching about the weather since it is MUCH worse in those frozen wastelands up north ( - 22 in Minnesota?...
that year in review all the cool kids are doing in shiny things
I started to not even bother since I've done shockingly little journal-writing this past year... but I hate to break my tradition. Of making a New Year's entry out of the beginning bit of each mo...
England 23- The Wrap-Up in The England Chronicles - June 2013
FINALLY. I think it took me 4 1/2 months to do my travelogue for our First England Trip, and I thought that was ridiculous and swore to do it faster this time. And this time it's taken me SIX mon...
England 22- Hiking at Fyfield Down on the Last Day in The England Chronicles - June 2013
Or, as we kept saying, the, "sniff..sniff...last day...WAAAHHHH!!!!" How is it possible for time to go so fast?? None of us was ready for it to be The Last Day. But, sadly, there The Last Day w...
Since I've not been really doing day-to-day entries to document our countryside stay, and instead have been doing hunks of things - like an entry for Marlborough and an entry (or two) for Bath an...
Have I said how much I loved Avebury? I really loved Avebury. I could live here. Amongst the stones. And sheep. This sheep had an itch. Impressive trees: West Kennet ...
I am apparently never ever going to finish my England Entries, but I'm in the mood to actually make a real entry. I'm bored out of my mind at work, which is just bizarre. I don't know when it's b...
We hung around Avebury just about every day that we were in Wiltshire, so I'm giving Avebury its own entry. It's both a town and the site of a Neolithic henge monument. It's the largest stone cir...
England 18.5; some more Bath pictures in The England Chronicles - June 2013
The real Bath entry is one entry back, but I want to add a few more pictures. Because I found Kim's Bath Pictures- which I'd put in a separate set from MY Bath Pictures on Flickr, since she was u...
But before I get to Bath, I have to wrap up one last loose end from the previous Passport Disaster entries: What happened to the purse?? I was oddly certain that it would reappear, since the card...
England 17 -- !!DISATER!!DAY!!! continued... in The England Chronicles - June 2013
...from last entry. Disaster Day actually lasted for two days--- Tuesday June 24th was The Day The Passport Vanished, and Wednesday the 25th was The Day We Had To Drive Back To London To The Emba...
At last.. it's.... !!!DISASTER DAY!!!!! in The England Chronicles - June 2013
FINALLY, after all the endless foreshadowing, we have arrived. Tuesday June 24th. The Day Disaster Struck. Well, Disaster really struck the previous evening, but it was Tuesday morning before we...
a little of this, a little of that in shiny things
I am trying to get back in the habit of writing more often (hahahaha!! Yeah, look at me, not even pretending to make an effort at NoJoMo) and although I am gravely behind on England Entries, and ...
I really will get to the impending !!!DISASTER!!!! next entry. I just want to get pictures of Marlborough in since we were there every day, and also stick in a glimpse of Devizes. THEN I'll relat...
England 14: hanging out at the Barge in The England Chronicles - June 2013
Since I have approximately 789,124 pictures of our trip, and we didn't really range very far once we were in Wiltshire (well, except that one day), I'm going to do these entries more by place tha...
Before the SERIOUS drama hits! Well, it hits on Tuesday so we have another nice peaceful day after this one. I left off the last entry as we arrived in Pewsey and were met at the station by an ex...
I am taking a big step here and making my entry in Prosebox -- and then if OD ever has a lull in fucked-upedness, I'll cross-post it over there. I'm at work and bored out of my mind, so am not in...
currently in EdnaLand in shiny things
OMG - I haven't done a Currents entry since February! I guess I shouldn't be surprised by that, since I haven't made any entries at all other than England Trip Entries since June. Well, except fo...
