Ah, That New-to-Me Car Smell

Smells rather like a car normally would…  Oh well.

I avoided mentioning it earlier so as to avoid disappointment, but now that it’s in my garage I have no fear: my Auntie, the absolutely most definitely the bestest and greatest Auntie in the world, sold me her 1995 Acura Legend.

If anyone wants to dispute my claim that she is the bestest Auntie, they can take it up with someone else.  ‘Cause if I make my case with ya, I’ll do something to you.  Like, really mean.

Meh, I’m having a hard time coming up with torture ideas right now.  I just keep thinking about that grey (with a certain greenish cast) beastie in my garage, slumbering quietly until bar-time.

Posting From My iPod

Let’s see how this WordPress App from iTunes works.

‘Cause if it does, I’m going to need a cold shower.

Ice-cold, frigid shower.

May just need one anyway, just trying it out…

Skall!!!

Edit: 02:07 – it freakin’ worked!!! *blaaaaaaargh!* Cool!!1!

The End Draws Nigh

And I feel it dying as I type.  Breathing roughened, eyesight dim, my dearest vacation won’t last past 13:00 tomorrow.

I didn’t get as much done as I would’ve liked.  I read alot, I thought alot, I walked alot, explored (both mentally and physically) alot, but I didn’t get anything real done.  That’s a shame, despite all the people will say “But that’s what vacations are for!”  If only because it seems that vacations are the only times I’m able to get some things done.  Like heavy-duty cleaning, or miscellaneous time-intensive projects.

I feel better after this past week, so I s’pose it went well.  After all, I was going mad before the weekend.  I feel the beast is penned and it’s gnashing is far less fierce or frequent.

The challenge will be to remember this restful feeling and keeping it alive when I go into work tomorrow, and the next day, and the next day…

I think I’ll go browse deviantArt for new items, as I can’t think of anything immediately relevant to post at this moment.  Besides, deviantArt always a slightly intriguing foray into the art-geek’s mind.  And the sheer volume of work that is uploaded sometimes boggles the mind.  Refresh the front page every ten to twenty seconds to see what I mean.

[Edit @ 21:03: I guess you have to have an account there to see the instantaneous "most recent".  So...  either create an account or… nevermind! :)]

Have fun, readers.

Skåll!!!

Huh, It’s Update Time.

I just love that little doohickey that tells me to update on every page.

Well, here goes…

Skåll…?

P.S. 21:58: Again it worked!  Hurray.

P.P.S. 22:08: I hate that little jog in the side bar.  Right about there. ===>

P.P.P.S. 22:11: Oh wow, will that look silly if I change this theme.  Hrm.  Where’s the emoticon for the evil smiley when you need it?

We Turned the Air Conditioner on, Bleh.

It was too hot to post anything yesterday, ideas just kept sweating out of me whenever I sat at this keyboard.  It doesn’t help that my computer sits on a corner desk that is outside any natural airflow, but even with fans blowing there was no way I was sitting here to type anything.

But with the A/C on now, it’s vaguely comfortable.  Annoying, knowing that the Energy bill will be all that much bigger next month or the month after, but comfortable now.

I dislike robbing Peter to pay Paul.  If only because Peter has such a finely honed sense of revenge, and a strong education in torture.
