Continue reading →: Sunday Seven Shopping
It’s the last day of NaBloPoMo June 2013. I made it! ~⚛throws confetti⚛~ It’s also Sunday, and that means another Sunday Seven. After my successful 4 week shopping embargo, I realized I hadn’t bought myself anything for my birthday. So I lifted the embargo. (Wouldn’t you, too, for a birthday?) …

Only two Supernatural episodes this week. Tuesday on TNT was dedicated to a Rizzoli and Isles pre-season premiere marathon. And the CW is once again showing Cult on Fridays. It should feel like a vacation, but this week’s episodes were pretty heavy, significant ones. No Rest for the Wicked (316)…

…Hippity Hop NaBloPoMo June 2013 is coming to an end. Today’s prompt is the last for this month, since Saturday and Sunday fall on a weekend, and are thus saved for “free-writing.” Of course, I’ve spent most of the month free-writing, so why should it matter? It doesn’t. Anyway, heeere’s…

Continue reading →: To Move, or Not to Move
That is today’s NaBloPoMo question. (Sort of.) Do you like to stay in one place for a long period of time, or do you like to move around? As with nearly all things in life, moving has its ups and downs. The upside: you’re forced to pare down your belongings,…

Continue reading →: Running on EmptyThe day is drawing nigh and I still haven’t fulfilled my NaBloPoMo duty yet. I started to write about today’s Supreme Court ruling on gay marriage,* but quickly realized that to do the topic justice would take more brain power than I currently have. So, how about a photo? I…

NaBloPoMo prompt for the day: What are your favourite family dishes? Yesterday I made—for the very first time—what is possibly my ultimate favorite family dish, my mother’s famous Pigs in a Blanket Famous because the recipe was published in Good Housekeeping magazine many years ago. I’m not sure why I’d…

WordPress.com Daily Prompt: Where do your morals come from — your family? Your faith? Your philosophical worldview? How do you deal with those who don’t share them, or derive them from a different source? “Here comes the only honest lawyer in Iowa!” It’s the greeting often heard in my dad’s…

Continue reading →: Sunday Seven: Fun with Photos
(and Photo Editing Software) It’s a lazy, rainy Sunday. Emphasis on lazy. I’m not motivated to write a Sunday Seven, so how about some pictures? I’ve been playing with Paint Shop Pro X5’s photo filters (plus one Photoshop filter—#7). Nothing fancy; just experimenting. All the effects are basically 1-step filters…

Continue reading →: Supernatural: Sin … and Geeks
Sin City (304) Season 3 crept up on me. It’s kind of a game changer. Sam died, Dean sold his soul, the gates of hell opened and let out a slew of demons. Three events played heavily in this episode. Two escaped demons wreak havoc on a town in Ohio…

June 21! The summer solstice, the first day of summer, and… what else? I love this day! I’d possibly love it even if it wasn’t my birthday. It’s almost exactly one-half year from Christmas, so I only had to wait 6 months for the Big Present Days. (Past tense, because…
