So my parents were visiting this weekend from Texas.
I wasn’t feeling exceptionally well today, and we got a late start — this prevented us from seeing much of it, but we did get to visit the Riverbank Zoo & Gardens in Columbia, SC. A very lovely little zoo and botanical gardens if you are [...]

Kick ass double feature
Posted in Journal on 31 May 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Damn! The new Indiana Jones and the Iron Man movies are fucking awesome! Just saw them double feature at the Big Mo. A drive-in in Monetta, SC that was renovated and reopened a couple years ago.
I don’t do spoilers. I’ll just say that that is the bestu fucking Tony [...]
Discovery

After all this time I’ve had Leopard I’ve discovered ONE whole thing to complain about versus Linux (there’s not a damned thing any version of Windows has that either Linux or OSX can’t do — including running Windows software… I’ll not hold it against my PPC processor that I can’t use WINE).
What is this one [...]
Newfound pizza addiction

I’m presently sitting in a booth at the wonderful Ferrando’s Italian Pizzaria. This place is teh nom nom nom! For $22 I have just partaken of a share of a 20″ pie loaded with 5 meats, olives, onion, mushrooms, bananna peppers, green peppers, and all the other wonderful things you expect to find [...]
My GODS MySpace is the stupidest fucked up piece of shit…

The title says it all.
Seriously. Shan signed up for MySpace to keep in touch with family (I guess they, like my cousins, don’t have the good sense to use a decent blogging site). Shan wanted to show me something on her sister’s MySpace. So what happens? Well… I get told that [...]

It’s going to stay nice out for a little longer — there be thunderstorm!
I hate living in a place where the overall comfort of the environment is dependent on the arbitrary, infrequent, often obscenely short thurnderstorms that come along. It almost never just rains, and whether storming or raining it can more often last [...]
More Dagger training

Well. Last night we had a lot of fun.
I’m not really sure I can do any of it justice — in fact in an edit, or in comments I and/or Ziresta will have some quotes to put up as soon as they’re gathered up and one of us feels like typing them.
The session started [...]

For those that read this from RSS or who don’t look closely at the top of the page — There’s a new section to this WP called “Works in progress” three guesses what it’s for.
Namely it’s a holding place for fiction that I’m not done typing or not done writing — or at this [...]
Into the Palace of Death revised edition

My editorial staff (read: obsessive compulsive wife who actually gives a rat’s arse about that punctuation and grammar stuff far more than I do) has had a shot at Into the Palace of Death and done wonderful things with it (if one does not count having left one of my typos uncorrected and adding a [...]
So that’s where it went!

Found Infinite Worlds finally after nearly a year of being MIA. It was under the teddy bears. 1) We’ve looked there several times 2) It was a ridiculous depth under them.
Needless to say this is a very confusing situation, but now the book is in the middle of the bedroom so if [...]
