Hey ho, squiders! We’re less than a week from Christmas, and man, do I feel it. (I think I’ve bought everything I need to, and we’re done with Secret Santa at work–which went well–but I do need to mail a
The Workers Have Descended
Hey-ho, everybody! Sorry for going all incommunicado on you this week. As you know, we had two major disasters in May and June with the basement flood and the tornado. June and July was spent on clean-up (well, actually, the
The World Keeps on Turning
It’s been an interesting week, Squiders. As I said last week, we were hit by a tornado, which is, in itself, interesting, since I don’t live in a place that traditionally gets tornadoes. I mean, we had tornado drills and
Small Natural Disaster Hiatus
Hello, squiders. Hope you’re doing well. We got hit by a tornado yesterday, so I’m going to take a hiatus of about a week while we deal with that. Thank you!

There is an Angry Crow Outside My House
Good evening, squiders. I have an angry crow outside my house. It’s been there since we got back from Scotland, so I’m pretty sure we, personally, have not done anything to make it mad, but who knows? It is, however,
Have Some Castles
Good morning, squiders! I’ve just returned from two weeks in Scotland. We had a lovely trip, and perhaps I’ll talk more about it in a bit, but it turns out when you’re out of the country for two weeks there’s
Still Irrationally Mad at SETI
Story time, squiders. Hooray! Recently I was on YouTube, catching up on my subscriptions (I’m doing better about not just sitting in front of YT and letting it suck away all my time, but I do sometimes purposefully build in
