You know what sucks? Migraines. You know what sucks more? Migraines that last for a couple of days and then leave you a worn out shell for another day after they’re gone. And you know what else sucks? Getting over the migraine, feeling better for a day and then running smack into one of those …

Sploosh Splosh Swimmin’ In A Thought Pool
It’s random thought splatter time. Put on your rubber boots, this thought puddle’s a doozer. Like every year, I have to get my silly Christmas shopping talk in there. When December started, I was flipping out, I’d hardly bought anything, and it was…what was Steve’s word? De-fucking-cember? I can’t find it, but ya know. Anyway, …

I’m Not Sure Why I Wrote This
There’s snow outside. Not a lot of it, but it’s honest to god snow, the stuff that sticks to the ground. I’m not impressed because I really can’t stand winter anymore, but I know it’s only going to get worse. Hopefully not so much worse that the services of the military are required like they …
It’s The Occupy VC Cast
Well, it is here. The Occupy VC Cast, the Occucast, whatever you want to call it, it’s here…and it’s about to occupy about 2 hours of your time. It would be awesome if you found it 99% funny. We divided it into 4 parts. It would have been only 3, but well, ya see, I’m …
We Went To The Baker Street Station And You Should Too
Yesterday was my birthday. Ok so it’s actually not for a few more weeks, but we pretended it was and Carin took me out to the brand new Baker Street Station. It’s been open for about a week and change and we’d been looking for an excuse to pop in and try it, so hey, …

Observations, Updates, And Other Goofiness
Here comes another giant pile of thoughts. The other day, the oldies radio station was on and The Poppy Family That’s Where I Went Wrong came on. And, unbidden, my only thought that came out loud and clear was “oh that poor bus stranger!” At that point I just started laughing. I didn’t feel one …

Life, #Twittereen, #Movember, And Other Things
Hi there. It’s me, ya know, the absentee blogger. I haven’t really had much to say in the last little while. Not on email, not on Twitter, not on the blog, not anywhere. But that’s ok. I’m surviving, that’s what matters. I’m surviving, and attempting to expand this very little brain. By consequence, when I …

An Update On The Chip And PIN Credit Card Question
As the title suggests, there’s an update to the do chip and PIN credit cards have a problem with blind people question from a couple of days ago. The best answer I can give after go rounds with the bank and with TD Visa is that I still haven’t a clue, and I won’t get …

A Question About Chip And PIN Credit Cards And Their Use By The Blind
The time has come for me to renew my credit card. The new one came in the mail late last week, so now all I have to do is get a hand from somebody to activate it. But before I do, a question. The new one is one of those chip and PIN deals that …

We’re Still Here
We are, in fact, still alive and well. In my case I should probably add the word finally to that alive and well part, since not being well took like 5 days away from me. Whatever’s going around right now…don’t get it. It’s far from the worst thing you’ll ever have, but it has this …
