Looking for clues…

I solemnly swear not to spit on you...

July. We meet again, my annual nemesis. We spent the first week of the month on vacation. And by vacation, I mean, holed up in our house, avoiding people, staying up too late, and playing the new Final Fantasy XIV: Dawntrail expansion. It’s the start of a new story arc so it didn’t have quite the same gut punch of FEELINGS of the last two expansions that wrapped up a huge arc. That was fully… Keep reading…Looking for clues…

Don’t watch it turn…

Dramatic Unicorn is Dramatic.

We made it to June without having to turn on the air conditioning. If the forecast is accurate, it won’t be long before we do need A/C, but it’s still some kind of victory and I’ll take it. Anyroad. You know what’s great? A warranty issue on day two with a brand new computer. You know what’s even better? A warranty issue on day ONE with the REPLACEMENT computer. It has been A TIME over… Keep reading…Don’t watch it turn…

Up for grabs…

I miss the Fail Whale...

February. January is always such a slog, but February has far too much baggage attached to it. Mech. At the beginning of the week, I opened the bedroom blinds and thought, why do things look so…orange-y? The sun was shining for the first time in…weeks? And it came back every day all week long. It’s been a nice change from all the gray and brown. I mean, it’s still completely brown out there because there… Keep reading…Always spinning…
