Adventures of a well-rounded geek
Bread pre oven I couldn't help myself with an alliteration - botanicals, bread, and bingo - it was just too good to pass up. You're welcome. Yesterday revealed itself to be an overall pleasant day. I'm on steroids for a few days to help with my sensitive tooth (thanks new crown) and so my mood…
I took Thursday and Friday off work. I had no set plans other than to relax. I needed time off. I needed time by myself. I haven't really had that lately, and while that's not terrible, it turns out I do need alone time more often than perhaps I initially thought. We all need time…
My grandma died. Yesterday morning. On Christmas Eve, my grandma took her last breath. I will never see her again. I knew that was the case, even before she passed away, but the finality of it, the actual act of her dying, hits me very strongly. What do you even say? What is there even…

10-22-20: I thought I had posted this yesterday but turns out I didn't so posting this now. Yesterdays meetup chat was quite enjoyable. There was a time when I was considering making the chat an every other week event rather than every week, but then I realized how much I enjoy hanging out with my…
Yesterday started off with Shari coming over to make breakfast with me and Elisabeth. Elisabeth, if you didn't know, makes her own homemade chai. It's pretty awesome, not only the fact that she makes her own, but she makes it well and it tastes good. I've actually had a couple of sips. She told Shari…
I am dating Shari. I didn't know how to build up to that piece of information so I decided to start with it. Life is weird and fascinating and wonderful and unpredictable and sometimes I have to jump headfirst into the cold water and see what happens. So here I go. My friend, now girlfriend,…
I started this post two days ago but just haven't had the time to finish it or post it, so, third time's a charm. Here we go! Pippin spent all day at the vet's on Thursday so he could have his teeth cleaned and 7 teeth removed. I had taken him to the vet for…
