For some that would be a nightmare, but for me it is the result of watching my intake and increasing my exercise level. I was 90 kilos about 7 or 8 weeks ago and I have been working hard to get rid of these 5 kilos. My dad is down some 20 pounds so . . . → Read More: Eighty-five kilos

I have just compiled a database of all our online and hardcopy (very little) financial information and how to access it. I started at about 8:30am and just finished. Yikes! I had no idea it would be so difficult.
I stored everything on an external drive and used Kee-Pass to encrypt the data. At . . . → Read More: Planning for my demise…

Jamie has caught the tummy bug that has managed to pass itself around here regardless of the fact that we interact with few people. We really must be living in a petri dish to constantly be picking up these bugs without having contact to infect us. Since he was under the weather and I . . . → Read More: Creepylandia

For the northern half of the hemisphere it is Summer Solstice and the southern half is now half-way through winter. When we lived in a stick house Solstice was celebrated rather than typical holidays and this would have been a great day to head to Chichen Itza to watch the serpent climb the stairs. . . . → Read More: Happy Solstice

Flickr is working and I re-organized the left sidebar. I have the “about” link working now and I need to change the Archive link. There is no need for it as the left sidebar gives all the archives. I think I’ll put pages there.

Argh. Forcing out a post. I was in a place (last week) where I could drone on and on about nothing and it still seemed interesting to me. Today, not so much.
We’ve been doing very well at our (so far, just Jamie and my) resolution to DO SOMETHING each Sunday. Sunday is the . . . → Read More: eeking it out

I’m not a religious person, but I swear, if this farking rain doesn’t stop soon (like in the next 5 mintues) I’m going to build a farking boat! SHEESH!
that is all.
And on a TOTALLY different note, I will happily endure any number of hordes of mosquitoes from now on. Especially since the . . . → Read More: wet wainy weather

Jamie and I would like to let everyone know we are All Right. We didn’t suffer too greatly, we are recovering and have plans to avoid future confrontations. What do you mean, WHAT? It didn’t make the presses? It didn’t make international news? What news sources are you guys reading anyway?

What an ABSOLUTE Farking headache! I’ve been at this since early yesterday and I’m still not absolutely certain it is fixed. My one saving grace is that I ALWAYS button down the files on my server. They are ALL and ALWAYS set to 0644 (file permissions) and 0755 (directory). So no hacks to the . . . → Read More: but wait, there’s MORE! WordPress Hacking and more!

I had been rather diligent in updating software but fell into a lull after 2.0.3 of WordPress. I rarely, if ever, check my stats so I’m not sure how long it has been happening, but something got hacked. If you run WordPress, check your stats and then go here.
