My replacement power supply still hasn’t arrived. In the interim, I’d forgotten how sore a knee is two weeks after surgery, so I’m annoyed at how much it slows me down. Naturally, I’m probably trying to do too much too soon. But, seriously, I’m not trying to do anything more … Continue reading →
What are the chances we grew enough anti-bodies after the hurricanes of the last couple of years to have achieved some level of immunization against storms this year? Frankly, they are non-existent, but that’s what I thought this morning when I saw the headline “Tropical Storm Chris Falls Apart.” But … Continue reading →
I checked on the power supply yesterday. They expect to get it from the manufacturer today and will turn it around to ship to me as soon as they get it. That means I should be up and running on my primary machine by this weekend — I hope. Fortunately, … Continue reading →
I’m still off-line on my primary computer. The problem with being under warranty is you need to wait for them to send the part. I plan to call Monday to verify they have shipped the new power supply — they should have received my dead one last Monday. Meanwhile, back … Continue reading →

Late last night, I figured out where the next scene needed to go, so it rolled off my fingers tonight (that’s called artistic license to say that, by the way) and brought the word count on Threads & Ties to 60,027. Nikki’s gotten herself into a pickle with two guys, … Continue reading →
The Playoffs weren’t my favorite time. Dallas and San Antonio fought to the wire and San Antonio lost. Then Dallas couldn’t bring home the bacon in the Finals. Oh, well. Next year is another year. Trading Rasho to Toronto was a good move. What will be next in the Spurs … Continue reading →
I don’t have anything inspiring to say. If that’s what you’re looking for, PBW and Tambo have that. I savor my July 4th holidays. In recent years, the military has begun offering family days in conjunction with major holidays, and I revel in the four-day weekend that results. I’ve been … Continue reading →
