follow-up to a rant

This is a follow-up to the last ranty post.  I’ve been wanting to write it for a few days, but I was without my macbook for over a week and I finally have it back (yay!). I was so aggravated by that HP article that I just fired off a post in haste and missed …

three days away

I am three days away from boarding a plane to Amsterdam! I can’t even tell you how excited I am and how I’ve been waiting for this vacation.  Over a drunken dinner, three ladies said they were going to plan a trip to Amsterdam and Paris, and by golly, within 2 weeks, they chose the …

chubby bunnies and other nonsense

It’s been a long time…I know.  I apologize! Boring stuff first. Work is work.  It’s mellowed and not as crazy. Dating?  What’s that?  I am not on any site currently and haven’t been for awhile.  Just got tired of it all and needed a break. I did meet someone in real life who may be …
