I’m working my behind off! Not that there’s much to work off.
I’m recovered from my little outage of a few days ago, but as we’re about to hit December things at work have picked up considerably and I’m bzzzeeeee.

Every so often (like last night) I have what I believe is a nocturnal seizure. Once, years ago, I had a grand mal seizure (tonic-clonic), which was quite a show for the folks at the office.
These nocturnal ones seem be related to big weather shifts, such as this part of the world is about […]

Thursday is Thanksgiving in the United States. This is a big deal. So the Internet - the blogosphere - is likely to be a very lonely place. But …
It is also an opportunity. Now the rest of us can talk about those Americans behind their back! Ah ha! They won’t be listening. They’ll be drinking […]

Many bloggers look at their search stats every so often to get a sense for how people are finding them. And many of these bloggers have found, as I have, the road to our blogs to be a shady one.

The dog’s name is Alexis and is pleasant enough. Friendly and playful. But really small.
I couldn’t tell you the number of times I almost stepped on her.
Anyway … a […]

Winter (currently in abeyance) is a time for denuding the average Canadian of anything approaching dignity as he or she tries their damnedest to defend against the elements.

This is my contribution to Flash Fiction Friday #17 over at Purgatorian. And away we go:

Would whoever is in charge of managing the weather please stop drinking and get your shit together? This weather sucks. Just sucks. Make a decision, dammit!

Shit. I had written an entire post and lost it when I accidently closed the browser instead of the tab - I hate getting used to a new computer. As I’ve already written …
I am groggy because the phone rang early and I was up late reading and listening to Kate Bush’s latest, Aerial. It […]

The fruit know as lime is a vitally important one. This cannot be stressed enough.
Where, for example, would our cosmopolitans be without the lime?
Some would treat this pseudo-martini beverage with disrespect by using the sugary and sticky Rose’s Lime Cordial but that is like sex without foreplay - the […]
