A quick announcement

Just wanted to mention that Brian and I are having our normal landline (586-0191) disconnected. We may be getting another phone through Jeffus & Williams, but for now we're going to be using his cell phone. So the best way to reach me right now is either there or through email. I [...]

Changes and frustrations

Moving is finally over; it only took about three times as long as it should have thanks to weather. See, originally, we'd planned to have use of a box truck, so we would've been able to move everything over in one trip (two at the most). However, thanks to a foot and a [...]

It's KROZ, ladies and gentlemen, broadcasting to you live from beautiful North Douglas…

…but first, a message from our sponsor:
ARGH MOVING SUCKS GIANT FLOPPY DONKEY DICK
Thank you, sponsor! Welcome to Rose and Brian's beautiful North Douglas apartment, where the Noisy Neighbors are Now Nonexistent! Among the features we'd like to point out are the full-size washer and dryer, the large living and kitchen areas, the [...]

On moving…

So, I'm thinking that the amount of work involved in moving one's stuff from living unit of assigned size x increases as an exponential function, rather than linear as is traditionally thought.
Which is to say, moving from a five-room apartment is twenty-five times more work than moving from a single dorm room, rather than the [...]

Blargh.

I want to go home. But I can't for two more hours.
I could rant here about my crappy morning and lack of sleep due to intestinal problems last night, but instead I'm going to steal an idea from , because it might help to pass the remains of the workday faster:
It's Friday. Ask [...]

Hooray for Steve Jobs and his Reality Distortion Field!

Now, I'm not exactly what you'd call an Apple Devotee quite yet – while I admit a lot of their products are cool, most of them aren't really things I need or want. So I wasn't really hyped about MacWorld as, say, Brian is.
However, I am a computer geek, and therefore just susceptible enough [...]

Yet more evidence the "OMG! Filth in Media!" folk have no clue what they're talking about…

W. T. F.
Look, I've spent a bit of time playing Mass Effect, and I've spent a lot more time watching it being played. Now, a lot of media attention has descended on it because there is, apparently, one sex scene involved, but I'm told “you only get to see, like, one second [...]

A bit of geographical irony

So, we're definitely moving into the new place – application's dropped off, notice given to our current landlady, moving date set. I'm looking forward to it, even if last night's actual measurements did give lie to the illusion that it was bigger. However, we've got a couple pieces of furniture and such that [...]

In other news:

Brian and I are looking at possibly moving to another apartment.
Believe it or not, our plans for moving out of town are firming up some, but it's going to be another year and a half (at least), and our current place is starting to feel a bit cramped. (This is in part due to [...]

Hunh…

Monday morning, I felt grouchy and oversensitive for no particular reason.
Tuesday morning, I had plenty of reasons to be grouchy, but mostly just felt oversensitive.
Wednesday morning, I'm fine.
Maybe I need to get my birth control pill dosage checked…
