So I am sitting here, working on my iMac on the 25th of June. I had only JUST migrated all my work stuff back from the Macbook to the iMac since it is a much better machine to work on when I can. I was just getting back into the groove of working with a desktop instead of on a laptop perched on my knees. I was trying to figure out the best way to keep info sync’d between them ..read more

New toys? For me? I promise I won’t break them this time!
I had to find the exact quote and use it.
By far, XT-002 Deconstructor is possibly one of WoW’s most annoying boss fights ever (“NO! NO! NO! NO! NO!” in a high-pitched voiced, kiddie-tantrum fashion complete with pounding his fists into the floor) … but right here and right now, his first statement is so very apt.
I’ve got a couple new toys! I promise I won’t break them this time!
Well, one of them hasn’t arrived yet and I am going to ..read more
Counting down to departure day
Since we haven’t been told which day exactly hubby is leaving, we sit and wait this week … wait for a phone call.

This deployment has already changed us in ways that I don’t know that I would see normally. If it were not ..read more
Right when you thought it would never change again
Just when you thought I was sticking with the theme I designed for myself, I go and change it again – eh? Well, here’s the thing – 40milesfromKingston was making my own eyes blur when I read the posts – the white on black was killing me. That can’t be a good sign. It needs some work, and so until I find the time to work on it, I am going back to a simple white background theme so I ..read more
I just love the Dear Prudence column – classic!
When I first read the title and the letter, I was laughing my head off…. then I read Prudie’s response and promptly fell off my chair:
Dear Prudence, Every year my fiance’s family takes a portrait together and mails it out as their holiday card. His parents included their new son-in-law when their daughter got married. This is the first holiday since my fiance and I got engaged, and they have already commented on needing a bigger lens to fit everyone in ..read more
Cooking Thanksgiving Dinner for the first time
So, my husband turned to me last week and said (and I quote) ” Wanna cook thanksgiving dinner?”
It prompted a complex set of emotions:
Satisfaction: clearly he thinks I am decent enough cook to pull it off if he asks like that Fear: I have NEVER really COOKED a traditional meal (Jamaican OR American) for anyone but myself or my parents … I was SO going to blow it because I KNOW I am no good at this. Excitement: at the “project” aspect ..read more
