The short kid seemed back on his feet (he’s since relapsed—I hate fevers) and the husband needed some truck parts they didn’t have in town, so off we went to the city. Always a good excuse to go to Borders, especially since Walmart hasn’t put out Lover Unbound yet. Still waiting for my BDB fix.
Guess […]

Has anybody ever taken the 8 screws out of the back to take it apart and clean under the keys?
Mine’s pretty grubby, but with the condensed layout of the keyboard, taking the vacuum to it doesn’t accomplish much. It seems like the two halves should just come apart so I can clean it, but I […]

Well, until I watch all the stuff I have DVR’d.
On a side note, I just unearthed a nifty little tidbit. The person who just requested a full from me shares my passion for Imperial Russia. Not that the manuscript has anything to do with Imperial Russia, but I’m taking it as a sign, dammit. […]

I’ve fallen prey in the last several weeks to a variety of minor physical ailments. Upset stomach here, pinched nerve there, headaches everywhere. The tall kid tried to present me with a dissertation on the important balance between physical, mental and emotional health, after which I reminded him again if he doesn’t step away from […]

I don’t think we really have any Friday shows, so this might be it.
On a side note, the new Rascal Flatts CD is…less than great. I’m not loving it at all. After several listenings, there are only two songs I care for at all—one has creepy, stalkerish notes and the other’s about dead children. […]

Serious thunderstorms this morning. Must type fast.
Can’t remember the name: The new sitcom starring Kelsey Grammer (Frasier) and the wife from Everybody Loves Raymond. I’m not sure if Kelsey can be funny without David Hyde Pierce, and the actress…it’s silly to be biased against her because she treated a fictional husband like crap for so […]

The top of this desk is now so cluttered I don’t have enough space to set down my iced coffee. My only option is to hold it in my left hand and type with only my right, so forgive any typos.
On a non-Premiere Week note, I had the opportunity yesterday to see Transformers. I […]

(Brand new shows marked with a *)
How I Met Your Mother: Always hilarious. I still can’t believe how funny the Doogie guy grew up to be. And one of the reasons I got sucked into this show is the storytelling method and how intriguing it is that the “core” relationship isn’t, because Robin’s not […]

We made a last-minute decision to go north this weekend. It’s so much fun to fight for highway space with the leaf peepers, you know? Actually, we had to get the skirting up on the camper so my hubby’s feet wouldn’t freeze to the floor come winter.
Since I didn’t get my blog entry […]

You know it’s going to be a good day when even the blog title doesn’t make sense.
So the short kid and I love Rascal Flatts. Our Jeep music consists of the two alternating CDs (Me and My Gang; Feels Like Today—I haven’t heard the older two) and we know all the words…or most of them. […]
