Jon, foot, mouth

Published: 3 January 2010
Jon and I were just making some espresso in the kitchen and talking about one of our favorite Mexican restaurants. The food is excellent when you go at dinnertime, but when you come around lunch, they must have different cooks or something because their food isn’t nearly as good. It’s still tasty, but [...]

the unexpected biscuit surprise

Published: 31 October 2009
Jon and I just came back from eating at Cracker Barrel. It’s not a restaurant where we eat often, but sometimes I get this irresistible urge to eat biscuits and gravy, and Cracker Barrel is the best place to quell that urge because 1) IHOP is meh and 2) Waffle House food looks and [...]

espresso machine

Published: 20 August 2009
My espresso machine arrived today! Well, really it arrived yesterday, but the post office only left me a little receipt in my box and then they held it hostage till today, when I went with Jon to pick it up. It was a whopper of a box with a $16-something shipping label on [...]

taxes, a pot pie, and Cylon speculation

Published: 15 March 2009
Yarr, I should go to bed, and probably will do so after I post this entry. It’s spring break and I’m enjoying the time off, though I’m still busy. I have to do my taxes and I so don’t want to, but I kind of need the money I’m sure to get back, [...]

Amish Friendship awkwardness

Published: 3 September 2008
I’ve been running around non-stop since I got out of class today. First, I had a doctor’s appointment, then Todd dropped me off at home and I watched Jess make a yellow cake with chocolate icing, then we hit up the grocery, then we came home and the real fun began. She worked [...]

finally, my return

Published: 6 January 2008
My return to the world of blogging, that is. I’ve been a bum about updating this thing while I was on holiday, but after Kathy’s persistent nagging for me to blog again, here I am. Classes start Wednesday, and I don’t want to go back. Doing the co-op program got me used [...]

cat scratches and stir fry

Published: 29 May 2007
My Memorial Day weekend was spent at Jessica’s parents’ house, relaxing and enjoying good food. It was there that I photographed her kittens, and I also got scratched while catching one. Boy, did I upset the little thing. She got me back, though, by raking her claws over my wrist and the [...]

lizards and coffee

Published: 20 May 2007
We caught a lizard! (The excitement never dies down in my life, does it?) There have been a few plump, gray lizards that sun themselves on Todd’s parents’ front porch, which is very sunny during the day. Todd and I caught one yesterday but he gave us the slip before I could [...]

freedom and Calvin and Hobbes

Published: 13 May 2007
It’s wild not having homework to do. I’m sitting around on my computer, dancing along to Alanis Morissette, and I was starting to feel guilty for not being productive. Then I realized that, hey, I don’t have anything I should be doing, really. I could work on my FAFSA, but that’s about [...]

nasty pizza and a free day

Published: 1 May 2007
Pfhew, I’m halfway done with finals with only two left on Thursday. I think my algorithms final today went all right, though it was harder than I expected. I’m really not worried about it, though, because the professor is incredibly easy with grading. I wanted to fix dinner tonight for Todd and myself and [...]
