Looks like I’m not alone in not being able to update my iPod.
I downloaded iTunes 4.5 - great. I downloaded the iPod updater - great. Then I plugged in my iPod, all wiggly with excitement and looking forward to the goodness that is Apple’s new lossless compression format. iTunes wakes up and [...]
The other night, I sat down with the candleflame shawl and tried to figure out where I’d left off. I tried for about half an hour and then decided to just rip it out and start over. There were a couple of problems that made it hard for me to figure out what [...]
Good grief. I want to hit someone. To borrow some verbage from Kaetchen, I feel molto bitchy today.
I’d say I got up on the wrong side of the bed, but my bed is butted up against the wall, so I pretty much always get up on the same side. I woke up [...]
Last night’s dreams included a fight scene between Arnold Schwarzenegger and Steve Martin, with Jane Seymour looking on. Steve kicked Arnold’s ass with his inimitable fighting style as seen in The Jerk.

Unfortunately, I’m still not skilled enough to get my finger placement right without some visual aids, so at my lesson tonight [...]
Happy birthday to you,
happy birthday to you,
happy birthday my dear Kaetchen,
happy birthday to you!
You’re two years younger than me though, so I still get to call you “kid”.
This reminds me: need to buy her present. Fuck. It’ coming sweetie, I swear. I just pray that my friends continue to view [...]
Okay, I’ve got a little news for each of my three categories today. I’m pressed for time, so I’m going to combine them all in one post; maybe I’ll hack up MT later to make trifurcated posting easier. (Yes, trifurcated is a word. I didn’t make that up.)
Knitting: I called the [...]
I understand that not everyone in my generation has learned to type. And I understand that when you are in a hurry, it’s easy to get a little lax in your spelling. But for Pete’s sake, EMBRACE PARAGRAPHS!!!
Here’s a sample of a request that showed up in my inbox this morning. Some [...]
